Ingredients:
6 cups of quince (about 5 quince), rinsed, grated, leave peel on.
4 cups of water
1 tablespoon lemon zest
1/4 cup lemon juice
4 cups of sugar

Preparation:
Put the water in a 6-8 quarts saucepan and bring to a boil.
Add the grated quince, lemon zest and lemon juice.
Allow the mixture to simmer until the quince is soft; this might take about 10 to 15 minutes.
Stir in the sugar and bring to a boil again.
Lower the heat to medium high and cook the quince for about an hour, stirring occasionally. You are looking for a thicker consistency and a pink quince jam.
Spoon the hot mixture into sterilized canning jars and seal.
Makes about 10 cups.
