What is quince puree?
Quince puree is a smooth and thick creation made from cooked and mashed quince, which is a type of fruit related to apples and pears. The puree tastes sweet and tangy, with a floral and fruity aroma. It has a similar flavour to apple sauce but is more complex and intense. For those wondering what the difference between quince puree and quince paste is, these are both made from cooked and mashed quinces, but they have different textures and uses. Quince puree is softer and smoother, while quince paste is firmer and denser. The puree is more suitable for spreading or mixing, while the paste is more suitable for slicing or cubing.

Quince puree offers a variety of benefits due to its nutritional content and unique properties.
