The very first marmalades were made with quinces, perhaps because they contain a high amount of pectin. A hint of vanilla mellows the tangy flavors of this version. With its gorgeous color and delicious taste, this marmalade would make a great gift. Ingredients:
4 cups chopped cored peeled quince (about 1 1/2 pounds) |
1/2 lemon, seeded and coarsely chopped |
2 cups sugar |
2 cups water |
1 (1-inch) piece vanilla bean, split lengthwise |
Directions:
1. Place quince and lemon in a food processor; pulse 10 times or until finely chopped. Place quince mixture, sugar, water, and vanilla in a large, heavy saucepan. Bring to a boil; reduce heat, and simmer 55 minutes or until reduced to about 3 1/2 cups. Cool; pour into an airtight container. 2. Note: Refrigerate marmalade in an airtight container up to two months. |
