Quince Applesauce
- 2 quinces, cut in sixths for a pressure cooker or thinly sliced for for a food mill
- 3 pounds apples, quartered
- honey or sugar
- fresh lemon juice
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon, cardamom, or allspice or a pinch of ground cloves, optional
- If you're using a food mill, put the apples and quince in a pot, add 1/3 cup water, cover securely, and cook until the apples are completely tender, about 20 minutes.
- Or put them in a pressure cooker with 3 tablespoons water, bring the pressure to high, and cook for 10 minutes.
- Release the pressure or let it fall by itself.
- Pass the cooked fruit through the food mill into a clean pot.
- Taste and sweeten with honey if the sauce is tart or add the lemon juice if the apples are too sweet.
- Add the spices.
- Simmer for 5 minutes, then cool.
- If you're not using a food mill, peel and core the apples and quince first, then cook until they're broken down into a sauce.
