Quince Jam 250g
Quince jam is a fragrant preserve made from sun-ripened quince and honey for natural sweetness, creating a versatile spread that pairs perfectly with cheese.
What is Quince Jam?
It is a traditional preserve gently cooked using a classic homemade recipe passed down through generations to our award-winning beekeeper, Laszlo.
He blends hand-picked fragrant quince harvested at peak ripeness with pure golden honey fresh from the beehives.
The result is a rich and flavourful fruit preserve with a perfectly smooth, beautifully spreadable texture and a uniquely floral, citrusy aroma that captures the essence of summer in a jar.
Using honey instead of refined sugar to impart sweetness to this natural spread, it offers a healthier alternative to most store-bought quince jam, with a more layered and nuanced taste. It is also free from artificial flavours and preservatives.
How can I use it?
Quince jam is a versatile addition to your pantry, perfect for both sweet and savoury dishes.
- Spread over pancakes, fresh toast, flaky croissants or waffles for an indulgent start to your day.
- You can also add a dollop to yoghurt or porridge for an infusion of flavour.
- It will give roast pork or beef a mouthwatering, sweet and tangy counterpoint.
- Serve with cheese boards and crackers for a gourmet experience, as they pair exceptionally well with aged or hard cheeses.
- Incorporate into cake batters, cookie doughs, or use as a moreish fruit layer in desserts.
