That’s so interesting Esther. I don’t think my Mom had any idea what quince was. Let me know how you like it.

I will let you know about the garden and go find the book!

Thanks,
Irene

Eddie’s mom used to make poached quince and I never was quite able to replicate it. Now I have a recipe to follow. Thanks so much.
Good luck on your vegetable garden. We planted one a couple of years ago and have been enjoying homegrown tomatoes, eggplant, peppers, cukes and even watermelon ever since. For great inspiration and recipes, read Animal, Vegetable, Miracle by Barbara Kingsolver. I know you’ll love it.
Enjoy – Esti

I love the idea of a chocolate sauce on the side!

Thanks,

Sounds wonderful. I used to make poached pears all the time with chocolate sauce served on the side. What’s dessert without chocolate?

I agree. I am going to make it for Thanksgiving too. It reminded me of the compote my mother used to make.

Thanks for commenting!

I made some poached quince for Rosh Hashana and it was just wonderful. I used a very similar recipe. Thanks for sharing…and good luck with the garden! Keep us posted.
