Directions:
- Peel the quinces and grate coarsely (I use my trusty box grater).
- Put in a large saucepan; add water, cover and cook over moderate heat until soft.
- Add sugar and cook stirring, over medium heat, until the syrup is thick.
- Towards the end, add the lemon juice, the almonds, the vanilla and the rose geranium leaves (if using- do use them if you can get them).
- When cool, put in large jar and store.
- (Greeks just store this on the shelf, without extra processing. I don't know much about canning/storing, but I've never been sick. Still, it might be best to just keep in the fridge and spoon out as needed.) Note: This is FANTASTIC on vanilla ice cream.
