Guatemalan Jars at the Artisans Fair

Guatemalan Jars

One of the things that caught by viewfinder at the artisans fair was sweets and pickles in the jars. Although this photo is not as colorful as Olivia’s Pickels from Istanbul Daily Photo, it shows some of the fruits and vegetables very popular in Guatemala like Nisperos (the yellow fruit jars also known as Loquat), Pacayas (the white date palms, now available through Amazon), and, of course, Chile Jalapeños. Here is another shot of the nispero jelly jars.
