Quinces, Wet
Ingredients
Directions
Choose fine, ripe quinces without spots.
Prick them with a fork and place them in a pan of cold water.
Bring the water to a boil and cook until tender.
Remove from heat and transfer to cold water.
Once cold, peel the quinces, cut them into quarters, and remove the core.
Place the quarters into a third bowl of cold water to finish blanching.
Preserve them as desired.
