Everyone must have tried quince. The quince fruit is characterized by an unusual aroma, but it is very hard and tough. The taste of raw quince is sour and tart, which immediately makes tasters sore. But as soon as the fruits of quince are subjected to heat treatment, they are transformed into something very tasty, mysterious and especially fragrant.
Therefore, most often we use quince not in a fresh version, but in the form of jam, jam, compote. And you should always know exactly how long you should cook quince until it is ready. Quince is often added to the filling of apple pies and pies. And since quince requires more cooking time than apples, it is added to the apple filling in an already welded form.
Before making jam, we also boil quince in water until tender. Boiled quince can be used to make delicious quince puree, various desserts, it can be served with meat as part of a complex side dish.
Before cooking, the quince must be washed, cleaned from the seed chamber and, if desired, from the peel. It is not necessary to remove the peel before cooking and it will depend only on your desire. You can cook quince both in a saucepan with a small amount of water and in a double boiler. In both cases, you will get soft and tender slices, so the choice is yours.
