What is a "quince"?
Quince, a unique and ancient fruit, is a culinary ingredient prized for its fragrant aroma and distinctively tart flavor. With a firm and gritty texture when raw, quince transforms into a soft and tender delight when cooked. It is often used in preserves, jams, and jellies, where its high pectin content lends a natural thickening quality. Quince also adds a delightful tanginess to both sweet and savory dishes, such as pies, tarts, compotes, and savory sauces. Its golden yellow hue and aromatic profile make quince a beloved ingredient, known for its ability to impart a charming essence to various culinary creations.
