Quince

Sugar

Step 1

Pour water into a saucepan and add some of the sugar. Heat over low heat until completely dissolved, then add the next portion. Repeat this process until all the sugar has turned into a gently simmering syrup.

Step 3

By the end of cooking, the jam will acquire a beautiful caramel color if you extend the cooking time for another 20 minutes.
