Are quinces the most under appreciated yet amazing fruit?

I am always one for no-waste, so here is another quince tip, this time from Greece.

Don't throw out the pips and cores from quinces - dehydrate/ dry them and keep in a jar.

Seep a few in boiling water for a delicious tisane that is said to be perfect for colds and sore throats.

Perfect for Winter.

What to do with the quinces?

I have much loved recipes for quinces - quince paste, quince molasses, q syrup, q leather, q jam, quince aachar (indian q pickles), baked q, savoury dishes with q, dips with tahini, q vinegar, q honey, q relish, poached q, ....

I am torn between making 1 or 2 of these, and trying something new.

My hint for making quince paste? Add just a little rosewater. Oh my!

Love the colour of these quince flowers on a plant gifted to us by my aunt.

Flowering is always such a shy retiring introverted kind of shrub, don't you think?

Today the whole pink quince bush is buzzing with honeybees. They are to fast to get good macro photographs right now. Later in the day when they get their fill they will slow down.

Three white quince flowers with speckled green foliage behind them. The most delicate of the varieties I have.

The frost was not so nice to the white quince blossoms. I finally got a good shot of one. artheroes.com/en/shopartwork/W

@macanders Did you know that you can eat the quince fruits?
Yes they are no bigger than golf balls and as hard as nails, but they are like supercharged apples on steroids! Slice thinly (you will need a SHARP knife and a steady hand) and slide these slices under the skin of a chicken before roasting. They go well with roast pork too. Or microwave the slices for a while and add to an apple pie.
