The quince Sprinkle the quinces with a damp cloth and put in a pot covered with water, along with two half lemons. Boil water and cook for forty minutes, until a fork will not be able to penetrate easily into the flesh. Separate the pulp from the core (do not worry about the skin) and pass in the mill. Weighed and put the pulp into a saucepan, add an equal quantity of sugar (or even a little 'less, if you do not like things too sweet. I tried with 3 / 4 weight of sugar, and it came out fine.) . Cook on medium heat for 40-45 minutes, stirring constantly, until it has a consistency rather dense and will tend to remain together, without complacency on the walls of the pot.
Pour the quince paste into molds previously wet (I use silicone ones, and there is no need to moisten). Let stand overnight. Removed the quince from the molds, let dry forms in a dry and sheltered to a few days. Placed in an airtight container, will last a few months without problems.
before eating, you can roll it in granulated sugar.
A different form may be obtained without the use of molds, spreading the mixture over a baking sheet covered with parchment paper. Once dried, cut into diamond shapes and consumed.
