Quince Jam
Report
Quince Jam, a delicious homemade jam made with fresh seasonal fruit for a fantastic spread that tastes like heaven. It's so easy to make, and uses only 3 ingredients: quinces, sugar and lemon juice. It might not be the most popular jam to find in stores, but its unique flavour makes me fall in love with it every single time I have it. The quince jam is amazing in cookies or cakes too.

Instructions
- Remove the fine hair on the quinces (if there is any), wash and core.
- Cut into small cubes, then add the lemon juice and mix everything well.
- In a large pan, add the water and sugar, and bring to a boil over a low to medium heat.
- When the sugar is dissolved, add the quince cubes, and leave to cook for about 2 hours or until the quinces are soft and turned into a deep orange colour, and the liquid has the consistency of honey.
- Wash 3 or 4 jam jars, and add them to the oven set at 180 degrees Celsius (350 Fahrenheit) for 5 minutes, then add the hot jam and close the lids tightly.
- Turn the jars upside down and leave to cool completely.
