Quinces

Jason Dorday

Ingredients

1 part	Water
1	Quince
1 part	Raw sugar

Directions

1. Cut into chunks, leaving the skin on and put them in a baking dish.
2. Cover with water and an almost equal amount of raw sugar.
3. Put into a moderate oven and baste with the liquid for at least an hour. You may have to top up the water.
4. When the chunks are totally soft, drain any remaining liquid and cool.

These super-sweet glazed morsels are great with a tasty cheese or alone as a "sweet meat". The cook's reward is the beautiful perfume that comes off the quinces as they cook.
