Quinces are one of those forgotten fruits, considered difficult to work with today because they require cooking. This is a shame because they have a mild, sweet flavor, not too tangy, and a texture similar to pears.
Curious to see how your early modern marmalade will work out. Keep us posted!

Part of the recipe in the original manuscript.
Three quinces on a cutting board.
Today, Sid and I are attempting a recipe for “roy marmelaede” with quinces from the Antwerp Annunciates’ recipe book (first half 17th century, with some later additions - @kbrbe.bsky.social).
Quite curious as to how this will go (1/?)

I feel like this painting shows the essence of "piggyness".
