We like to keep traditions alive, and the first way to make this possible is to compare them with new trends and understand the differences.
This is a recipe we made using quines from our Farms.
In a departure from the traditional method of making quince jam in Sicily, this time we’re preparing it with a consistency that’s more common worldwide
Ingredients:
- 1000 g of quinces, chopped
- 450 g of brown sugar
- 350 g of water
- Juice of 1 lemon
- 2 teaspoons of cinnamon
- 3 cm of grated ginger (approximately 5 g)
Instructions:
- In a large pot, boil water with sugar.
- Combine the chopped quinces, lemon juice, cinnamon, and grated ginger.
- Cook the mixture over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the quinces are soft and the liquid has thickened to a jam-like consistency.
- Remove from heat and let it cool.
- Once cooled, transfer the jam into sterilized jars and seal them tightly.
- Store the jars in a cool, dark place or in the refrigerator.
This delightful quince jam with a hint of ginger and cinnamon is a perfect addition to your breakfast table or as a sweet accompaniment to various dishes. The aromatic flavors of ginger and cinnamon complement the natural sweetness of quinces, creating a unique and delicious spread. Enjoy this flavorful jam on toast, with cheese, or as a filling for pastries.
