Quincemeat

Quincemeat

This recipe is inspired by Nigella who in turn was inspired by Frances Bissell. My recipe is very fruity using a high ratio of quinces instead of the Bramley cooking apples that I would use in my traditional mincemeat recipe. I keep mine in the fridge as the storing time is slightly reduced due to the high amount of fresh fruit. However it easily keeps from quince season 'til Christmas. This recipe will make about 4 kg and is best made in a mincer if you have one. If not a food processor will do, but go steady and don't over process or you will have pulpmeat.
