How to prepare homemade Cuban guava jam

Peel and cut in half all the guavas so you can remove the seeds, now they look like shells.

Place them in a pot along with the water and cloves, cook on medium heat for 10 minutes until the water starts boiling, turn off the heat and let it rest for 5 to 10 minutes.

When it has cooled, we pour it into a blender and mix it for 1 or 2 minutes until we get a cream without loose pieces of guava.

We pour again into the pot and put it on the stove, add the cinnamon stick and sugar, stir well to integrate the ingredients.

Cook for 20 minutes on low heat stirring constantly to prevent it from sticking to the bottom of the pot while the jam thickens.

Take it off of the fire, let it cool completely and then refrigerate, preferably in a glass container, so it will last much longer.
