Quince Marmalade

4 servings

Ingredients

• 500 g quinces
• 250 g sugar
• cinnamon, pieces (a little)
• cloves, a few (a little)

Instructions

1. Remove the bloom and stem from the softened quinces, wash them thoroughly, and cook them until soft with water, a few cloves, and a little cinnamon for about 1 hour.
2. Mash them without the cooking water, stir through a sieve, and reduce with clarified sugar to make marmalade, which is great for filling baked goods.

Modernized from a treasured 19th-century German cookbook.
