Quince harvest
Today we picked the quince on our tree. We got about 55 between maybe 150 and 750 g, with most I would say about 300 g. Quince are typically quite large, and much harder than most fruit. I had to leave 3 at the top that I couldn't easily get to on the ladder.
Although I don't have any rum in the house, I'm going to make Spuma di Mele Cotogne (quince mousse; ingredients quince, brown sugar, lemon juice, cream, and rum) from a recipe Dad found on http://www.foodtv.com/.
Nath's hairdresser and my colleague Karine already took orders for all the quince. They're perhaps thinking of jams and quince paste rather than mousse. Quite popular fruit around here.
