QUINCE COMPOTE

This is a wonderful use for quinces if you can get your hands on some. If you like, you can puree the compote but I usually like it chunky. You can also serve it with vanilla ice cream or plain whipped cream.

Time 55m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 pounds quinces - peeled, cored, and diced
2 cups hard apple cider
½ cup sugar, or more to taste
½ lemon, juiced
½ teaspoon orange flower water
½ teaspoon grated orange zest
½ cup heavy cream
2 teaspoons vanilla sugar
3 tablespoons creme fraiche

Steps:

  • Place quinces, cider, and sugar in a pressure cooker. Close cooker securely and place pressure regulator over vent according to manufacturer's instructions. Heat until steam escapes in a steady flow and makes a whistling sound, about 10 minutes. Adjust temperature until regulator is gently rocking. Cook for 15 to 20 minutes until quince are soft. Let pressure release naturally according to manufacturer's instructions, 5 to 10 minutes. Unlock lid and remove.
  • Transfer cooked quinces and liquid to a serving bowl and season with lemon juice, orange flower water, and orange zest.
  • Beat cream in a chilled glass or metal bowl using an electric mixer until frothy. Add vanilla sugar gradually, continuing to beat until soft peaks form. Mix in creme fraiche and serve with the quince compote.

QUINCE-CINNAMON COMPOTE



Quince-Cinnamon Compote image

Not quite a pear and not really an apple, quince is a pome fruit that, once cooked, tastes like a cross between the two, but quince stays firm and takes on a beautiful red blush color. This vegan and gluten-free recipe gives a simple formula for compote. It can be eaten as a dessert on its own or added to oatmeal or breakfast quinoa. It also complements white meat well.

Time 1h5m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 pounds quinces
½ lemon
3 cups water, plus more for soaking
¼ cup raw cane sugar
⅓ cup agave syrup
½ cinnamon stick
1 pod black cardamom

Steps:

  • Rinse quinces under running water to remove the fuzzy layer. Squeeze the lemon into a large bowl and fill halfway with water.
  • Cut quinces into quarters. Peel, core, and dice one quarter at a time, and transfer fruit to the lemon water to prevent browning.
  • Combine 3 cups of fresh water, cane sugar, agave syrup, cinnamon stick, and cardamom pod in a saucepan and bring to a boil. Add drained quinces and reduce heat to medium-high. Cook at a low boil for 20 minutes.
  • Reduce heat to medium-low. Cover the saucepan with a lid, placing a wooden spoon underneath to keep it slightly ajar and allow some steam to escape without it drying out. Simmer like this for about 25 minutes. The compote is ready when the fruit has turned a red blush color, it is tender to a fork, and the syrup has reduced by three-fourths. The objective is to have softened fruit with a thickened syrup at the end. The syrup will thicken more upon cooling.

QUINCE COMPOTE



Quince Compote image

Quince is a fruit that grows abundantly throughout the Mediterranean. Though it's too hard and tart to bite into, it has a wonderful perfume. I like to combine it with apples in this simple compote.

Time 1h

Yield Serves four

Number Of Ingredients 7

Juice of 1/2 lemon
1 pound quince
1 pound apples
1/3 cup agave syrup
1/2 cup water
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 vanilla bean, split and scraped

Steps:

  • Fill a large bowl with water, and add the juice of 1/2 lemon. Quarter the quinces and apples, and place the pieces you aren't working with in the water while you peel, core and cut each quarter crosswise into 1 inch-thick pieces.
  • Combine the agave syrup and water in a large, heavy saucepan, and bring to a boil. Turn the heat down and simmer. Drain the quinces and apples, and add to the pot with the cinnamon and vanilla. Bring to a simmer, cover, reduce the heat and simmer, stirring often, for one hour. The quince will be soft and pinkish, and the apples may have broken down into apple sauce (depending on what type you use). Serve hot or cold.
