After about four hours I can certainly say that I was happy with the final result.
We have been having it on crackers with a lovely tangy cheddar but I am sure by the weekend there will be some brie involved.
I used silicone cup cake cases and managed to fill all 12.
Super easy and definitely worth a go.

Take care.
Yum, and it looks so professional too!
ReplyDeleteGo you! This looks divine! I'm hoping reading and seeing all these lovely blogs rubs off on me. I did attempt quinces in the slow cooker but they were a bit of a failure.
ReplyDeleteWhat are quinces?
ReplyDeleteDuchess, it certainly is amazing stuff. I'm glad you told me about having a go in the slow cooker as I was going to try that next time. I think I'll stick to the stovetop. I think the trick is to go really slowly. Make sure you are on a very slow heat.
ReplyDeleteMary, this is only my first experience with quinces. To look at, they are a little like a pear. The ones that I used were really hard to cut and core. I don't know if that is usual. I think I was expecting the texture to be like hard pear or an apple. I am not even sure if you would eat them raw. All of the things I see are about cooking them. I found this little fact sheet for you.

Dixiebelle, thanks. They taste pretty yummy. We have managed to eat about 3 of these in the last couple of evenings. Great late night DVD watching snacks.
ReplyDeleteAhhhh! My wine book has a recipe for them and the author is british. I think they might grow here though I've never seen or heard of them.
