But what do you do with them?

A couple of days ago I mentioned that we had eaten our first Feijoas and how I would need to find many different ways of cooking them to deal with the large supply of fruit each tree produces. Well I have made my first Feijoa product - Feijoa curd (also could be known as Feijoa butter, or Feijoa honey). It is basically the same as Lemon curd/butter/honey, but uses Feijoa puree instead of lemon juice/rind. Now we can eat the curd, spread on toast, on sandwiches or used as an ice cream topping; or find any recipe that requires the lemon version and substitute with the Feijoa version, such as the 'Feijoa coconut slice' I made for Bible study morning tea.
