The most delicious quince jelly for the winter

Raw quince, as a very astringent and tart fruit, is almost never consumed, but after heat treatment its taste and aroma become completely different. As one of the options for harvesting quince for the winter, there will be quince jelly, because it hardens perfectly even without various thickeners. Such a jelly is prepared from ripe soft fruits and even from the peel and seed pods left over from the jam, which contain a lot of natural pectin.

Ingredients

Cooking process

step 1 out of 6
Rinse the quince fruits well under running water, then cut into halves and remove the stalks. Seed pods and skins do not need to be removed. Chop the quince halves into thin slices.
step 2 out of 6
Put the pieces of quince into a cooking utensil and fill with the specified amount of water. Bring the quince over high heat to a boil and then simmer over low heat and covered for 45 minutes. During this time, the quince will become soft, which can be easily checked with a fork. It is important not to overcook quince, otherwise it will lose its taste.
step 3 out of 6
Boiled quince must be filtered to obtain pure juice. To do this, transfer it to a colander or sieve, covered with gauze folded in two layers. The juice will drain within 3-4 hours. It is not necessary to squeeze the juice, because then the jelly will not turn out transparent.
step 4 out of 6
Measure the amount of quince juice, as for high-quality jelly you need 1 glass of sugar for 1 glass of juice. Pour the juice into a saucepan and over high heat and bring to a boil with constant stirring.
step 5 out of 6
Remove the foam from the surface. When heated, quince juice with sugar begins to gel. Check this by dropping a little mass on a plate, the finished jelly should become elastic in a couple of seconds. If not, then boil the juice for a while.
step 6 out of 6
Quince jelly is ready. Pour it into clean, dry jars, seal tightly and, after cooling, transfer to a storage location.
Delicious and successful preparations!
