Quince paste, also known as membrillo, is a thick, sweet confection made from the fruit of the quince tree. It boasts a vibrant, deep red color and a uniquely tart, floral flavor profile. This dense paste is traditionally served with cheeses such as Manchego, but can also be spread on crackers or bread.
Perfect for enriching a charcuterie board, quince paste pairs wonderfully with a variety of meats and nuts. Its firm texture and rich flavor also make it a delightful addition to baked goods or as a glaze for roasted meats, adding a touch of sweetness and complexity.
