Homemade Quince Jam

Ingredients

• Quinces
• Water
• Sugar (3/4 cup per cup of quince pulp)

Method

1. 1 Wipe quinces, remove blossom ends, and cut into quarters. Remove seeds and cut the flesh into small pieces.
2. 2 Place quinces in a preserving kettle with enough water to nearly cover them. Cook slowly until the fruit is soft.
3. 3 Rub the cooked quinces through a hair sieve. Add heated sugar, using three-fourths the measure of the pulp.
4. 4 Cook slowly for twenty minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent burning. Pour into tumblers to set.
