Reply:Spiced Quince Jam


3 hours | 1 hour prep | 5 -6 half pints





This jam is a delicious accompaniment to cheese, and it makes a wonderful glaze for pork, game or chicken. It's also great just on toast with butter! I suppose technically it's a jelly, because it doesn't have pieces of quince in it, but it's not clear like a jelly, so I call it jam Quinces contain a lot of natural pectin, so you don't need to add any. However, you will need to keep checking the set while you cook it - use the cold plate test to do this. Check the set after the initial 20 minutes of cooking, and then every 10 minutes after that. Do not give up - this jam has to cook for a while. It may take up to 50 minutes for the jam to reach the "set" point. Just keep cooking it down. The jam will turn a reddish-brown color as it cooks.





Ingredients


3 lbs apple quinces or pear pear quinces , to make 6 cups quince juice


4 cups granulated sugar


1 orange, zest of


1 orange, juice of , small


1 lemon, zest of


1 lemon, juice of , small


1/4 teaspoon ginger


1/4 teaspoon cinnamon


1/4 teaspoon nutmeg


1/4 teaspoon allspice


1/4 teaspoon cloves


1/4 teaspoon anise


1/4 teaspoon cardamom





Directions


1To make the quince juice, wash %26amp; wipe off fuzz from quinces, cut off stem %26amp; anything remaining at blossom end and cut into eighths. Do not discard the cores or the seeds as they contain a lot of natural pectin. Place in a large pan and cover with water so the pieces float. Bring to a boil and stir. Reduce heat to a low simmer, cover and simmer for 2 to 3 hours, stirring occasionally (2 hours will do the trick, but I like to let it simmer for 3, so the fruit is very soft).


2Using a fine sieve, strain the "juice" from the pulp. The "juice" can vary from an actual juice to a thin puree - it depends on if the fruit breaks down or not. Press on the fruit with the back of a large spoon to extract all the juice.If some of the pulp squeezes through the sieve and into the juice that's fine. If you get more than the 6 cups needed for this recipe you can freeze it to use later.


3Place two or three small saucers in the freezer. You will use these later to check the set of the jam.


4In a preserving pan, combine the quince juice, juice and zest of the orange and the lemon, spices, %26amp; sugar. Bring to a boil and continue cooking on medium-high heat for about 20 minutes, stirring gently. Check the set - it may take up to 50 minutes of simmering over medium high heat for the jelly/jam to reach the set stage - use the cold plate test to check set - when a drop placed on the plate "wrinkles" when you nudge it with your finger it is done. Put the jam into jars, seal %26amp; process for 10 minutes.
Reply:A google search will turn up more than you will ever need. Don't just look at sweets, they're pretty good cooked with lamb chops too! Years ago I found a quince fan site, but I'm afraid I can't find it now :(
Reply:Quince is a peculiar looking hard yellow fruit (like a slightly squashed pear) and it could yield a fragrant, delicate, pink jelly.
