Amazing Quince Fruit Recipes You Should Try this Fall

When it comes to cooking fruits, there are some common examples that pop up. Apples, pears and berries to name a few. However, quince fruit recipes are far less common especially in North America.

Rarely do we see fresh quince and few people even know how to prepare or eat a quince. But they’re missing out! Quince are very versatile and a unique addition to both sweet and savory dishes.

It is a hard fruit that grows in all regions of the world but is especially popular in South America, Mediterranean countries and the Middle East.

However once cooked it tastes like a mix between a pear and an apple. It can have a slightly mealy texture and usually sugar is added to enhance the natural flavors.

You can eat a quince raw but you probably don’t want to. It has a very tart flavor and in many cases may be too hard to chew. No harm will come to you if you decide to eat it – I just wouldn’t suggest it.
