It is cooked a bit before being added to the vinegar mixture and is usually eaten with crusty bread called piedrazos which are also dipped into the vinegar. It is very good- the quince is a bit crunchy still and is tart, sweet, smokey, and spicy all at once. I have made this a few times.

The comments just got me searching for more quince recipes and I think I will be trying out the Quince Tart Tatin of David Lebovitz and Poached Pear and Quince Frangipane Tartelettes from Tartelette blog and more membrillo, of course. Quinces went on sale last week 2lbs/$1 and now it's back to $0.79/lb, still not bad. Thank you for this post Marketman.

She said it was just beef that was slow cooked with sliced quince. It was so good so I tried it at home and it turned pretty good. I used a regular pot but I think the authentic way of cooking this in a tagine. My friend’s mom from Morocco invited me to dinner one time and served beef with quince.

So this is how quince appears. Hmmm I thought it was a cousin of the pear. Intriguing that it has that aroma. As usual, thanks for sharing.

Lidia made it as a side for her roast. I was dying to try it and finally found a chance to make it last Thanksgiving as a side for the Turkey...had it cooked with cranberries and it was a big hit. I found a recipe as a tarte tatin...instead of apples they used quince, so I have yet to try that... it's that time of the year again, I have seen it in my grocery and looking forward to buying it and cooking it again. I hope that you will be able to get a hold of it again MM and whip up something that will keep us all craving for...
