Eating a quince

Choose only fruit that are completely yellow, firm, and without bruises.

This fruit is too tart to be eaten fresh, but is a favorite for butters, jams and jellies because of the high pectin content.

A small amount will add flavor to mixed cooked fruits.

It also makes attractive baked fruit desserts like pies and tarts as it holds its shape.

To make an easy dessert, simply peel, quarter, and core the quince, then cut into slices.

Drizzle with a honey-lime-water mix and bake under cover for 1 hour in a slow 300 degree oven.

The slices will be pink or translucent, but will finish golden if you add a few minutes at higher heat uncovered at the end of cooking.
