A classic winter dessert prepared by slowly baking quinces in sugared water and enriching them with clove aroma. When served with clotted cream, it becomes an essential on the table.

Step by Step

How to make it?

1

Prepare the quinces

10 min

Wash the quinces thoroughly and cut in half, then scoop out the core with the help of a spoon.

2

Prepare the syrup

5 min

Boil the water, sugar, cloves, and cinnamon stick in a pot, stirring until the sugar dissolves.

3

Arrange in a baking dish

5 min

Arrange the quinces cut-side up in a baking dish and pour the prepared syrup over them.

4

Bake slowly

60 min

Cover the dish with foil and bake in a preheated oven until the quinces soften and turn a reddish color.

5

Serve with kaymak

3 min

Transfer the quinces from the oven to a serving plate along with their syrup, and serve with kaymak (clotted cream) on the side.

Reminder

Important: Since quinces are a hard fruit, they require long, slow cooking — don't shorten the oven time or the inside will stay hard. Allergen: clotted cream is a dairy product.

Editor's Note Editörün Notu

Don't discard the quince peel — cooking it along with the syrup adds extra aroma to the dessert; it's strained out before serving.

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.
