Recipe's preparation

    Poaching
  1. Add water and sugar to TM bowl. Place basket in TM bowl, add quince pieces and cook 30 minutes at 100°C  Speed 1.

  2. Cook 10 minutes Varoma Speed 1. Check for thick syrup,  good pink colour, tenderness and perfumed aroma. If more cooking is desired, check fluid levels and add more water before proceeding.

  3. Remove basket and tip poached quinces into serving dish. Pour poaching liquid over and serve hot, warm or cold with custard, cream or ice-cream.

Tip

New quinces that have greenish tinges on the skin will provide improved pectin set if proceeding to make jelly.

Poaching liquid can be flavoured with honey (sugar substitution), cloves or vanilla if desired. 

Pack quince pieces in tightly as they will shrink down during cooking.

Quinces are cooked after first 20 minutes but will not have the typical colour or density of aroma that will be gained from the additional cooking time and temperature. 

Size of quince pieces will influence cooking time as will amount of pectin in fruit.

To make jelly retain all cores, pips and peelings. 3 – 4 quinces will yield approximately 500g of core, pips and peel. See my Quince Jelly Recipe for detail.

Can place pips in the bottom of the TM bowl whilst poaching fruit to begin jelly process.

Cost approx $6
