Quince Poached In Cardamom Syrup Recipes

Steps:

• Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat. add quinces and sugar, and stir to coat. Stir in remaining ingredients, and cover with parchment cut to fit pan. Bring to a boil. Cover, reduce heat, and simmer gently until tender, about 1 1/2 hours. Spoon quinces and syrup into bowls.

Steps:

• In a large saucepan, combine the quinces with water to cover. Bring to a boil over high heat and cook, uncovered, until barely tender, 10 to 15 minutes. Drain the quinces and, when cool enough to handle, peel, halve, core, and cut into slices.
• In a saucepan large enough to accommodate the sliced quinces, combine the sugar, 1 cup water, cloves, and cinnamon sticks. Place over medium heat and bring to a simmer, stirring to dissolve the sugar. Add the quinces and additional water if needed to cover. Simmer for 5 minutes. Then, over the course of 12 hours, bring the quince slices to a boil in the syrup 3 times. boiling them for 5 minutes each time. This helps to bring up the rich red color of the fruit and allows them to absorb the syrup over time.
• Transfer to a serving dish and refrigerate. Serve chilled.
