Feijoas for Isabelle.

 Isabelle in UK said she does not know what feijoas are. So here you are Isabelle.
They are fruit that grow very readily here in New Zealand. They also grow in California and Florida  (called guava pineapples or something there ) They start off like this.

If you look back 4 or 5 posts there is a photo of the inside, when cut in half.
Today I decided the feijoa supply was gaining on us so got out this.

I also looked on the net for other ideas then went to my own cookbook and finally ended up with this.

3 jars of feijoa and ginger jam and 2 walnut and feijoa loaves.
 ( while I was cooking the name Letia sprange to mind....The Vicar of Dibley... but luckily I don't keep fish paste in this house. I will give the taste verdict next post.
