Quince is known as a fruit tree that produces beautiful and
fragrant fruits.
The sweet aroma of quince has always been popular in our
house. My grandfather used to place the plate full of quinces in the center of
the living room, from where the aroma spread throughout the house.
Many of us use quince in different ways.
When he was sick, my grandfather would put golden quinces on
the stove and roast them. Then they gather the grandchildren around and force
us to eat. At first, we grumbled, but as soon as we got the taste in our
mouths, we ate it whole with great appetite. And my grandmother and mother
seasoned the fish with many spices and quince. In the end, the sweetest taste
and smell was imparted to the fish from the quince.
Another way to use it is quince compote with honey, which is
an excellent remedy for cough.
Quince has low calories, it contains vitamins A, B, and C,
carbohydrates, proteins, fiber, copper, and other substances.
