Quince

Quince is a unique and ancient fruit that has been cultivated for thousands of years. It is closely related to apples and pears, belonging to the Rosaceae family. The fruit is typically golden yellow when ripe and has a strong, pleasant fragrance. Quince is known for its hard and astringent flesh, which makes it less commonly eaten raw. However, it transforms beautifully when cooked, developing a sweet and aromatic flavor. It is often used in jams, jellies, and desserts, and can also be added to savory dishes for a touch of sweetness. The quince tree itself is hardy and can grow in a variety of climates, making it a versatile addition to orchards and gardens.
