Don't Know What to Do With Quinces?! Here's What!
Ready In: 1 hr
Serves: 4
Ingredients
- 4 quinces, ripe (ask the seller about ripeness)
- 4 ounces creme fraiche, thick (or thick cream, 125 g)
- 3 ounces superfine sugar (caster sugar, 90 g)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 5 ounces granulated sugar (150 g)
- 1 pinch salt
Directions
- Heat oven to 400 deg F/200 deg Celsius.
- Remove the cores of the quinces so there is a sizable hole right through the fruit. A real corer helps, otherwise use a sharp knife with a thin blade and cut out the core carefully.
- Don't even try to peel them.
- Place upright in a lightly greased oven dish, close together preferably.
- Mix the creme fraiche or thick cream with the caster sugar and vanilla, and fill the cores with this mixture.
- Sprinkle the granulated sugar generously over the 4 quinces.
- Bake in the pre-heated oven for about 40 minutes, or until quite soft.
- Serve warm with ice cream or warm custard.
