Baked Quinces

Simple baked quinces, a classic dessert or side dish. The quinces are baked until soft and tender in a sweet syrup.

Instructions

1Peel, core, and grate the quinces using a box grater or food processor.
2In a medium saucepan, bring the water to a boil over medium-high heat. Add the sugar and stir constantly until the sugar is completely dissolved. This will create a simple syrup.
3Add the grated quince to the boiling syrup. Reduce heat to medium and cook, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking, for 20-30 minutes, or until the quince is translucent and the mixture has thickened to the consistency of honey. The color should deepen to a golden amber.
4Carefully pour the hot quince honey into sterilized jars or heat-safe containers. Let cool completely before sealing. The honey will thicken further as it cools. Store in the refrigerator.
