Quince jam

Description

When quince jam is cooked this way, it turns amber, and the slices themselves are semi-transparent and pleasantly firm. Quince jam is so fragrant and one of a kind that it needs no spices at all. I strongly recommend making this treat if you can pick or buy good quinces—you won’t regret it. My recipe will show you how. The preserve is ready for winter storage.
