A classic winter dessert made by slowly baking quince in sweetened water with cloves. Served with kaymak, it makes a much-loved centerpiece for the table.
Wash the quince thoroughly and cut each fruit in half. Use a spoon to scoop out the cores.
Bring the water, sugar, cloves, and cinnamon stick to a boil in a saucepan, stirring until the sugar dissolves.
Arrange the quince halves in a baking dish, cut sides up, and pour the prepared syrup over them.
Cover the dish with foil and bake in a preheated oven until the quince is tender and turns a reddish color.
Transfer the baked quince and syrup to a serving plate and serve with kaymak on the side.
Important: Quince is a firm fruit and needs a long, slow bake. Do not shorten the oven time or the center may remain firm. Allergen: kaymak is a dairy product.
Kızım da yardım etti, birlikte yapmak keyifliydi. Pişirirken evin her tarafı kokladı, komşular bile sordu.
Ben bu kadar uzun pişirmenin gerekli olduğunu düşünmüyorum, daha kısada da oluyor.
İlk denememde biraz tedirgindim ama sonuç harika oldu. Annemin yıllardır yaptığı tarife çok benziyor, nostaljik oldu.
