A quince can seem pretty unpalatable when picked, but it turns pink and becomes softer, sweeter and more aromatic when cooked. Because of their high pectin content, they are particularly suitable for making jams, pastes and preserves, but they also add interest to a whole host of simple seasonal puddings. Quince and walnuts make a great seasonal pairing.
