ah, Quinces...Turkey is now full of them too, and "ayva tatlisi" is showing
up in all the sweet shops. A quince baked with a syrup made from a special
red sugar with some sort of flavoring I can't identify (though it's not
completely necessary of course), a few cloves, and topped with a piece of
"kaymak" - clotted cream, preferably from buffalo milk. To die for.
But Turkey, being 98% muslim, is not really the land of liqueurs; one
doesn't usually see village ladies with bottles of cherries fermenting out
in the sun here. I'd love to have a recipe for quince liqueur. For that
matter, the loquat seed one as well, though loquats seem like ancient
history now.
Do share!

Alice laughed. 'There's not use trying,' she said: `one can't believe
impossible things.'
'I daresay you haven't had much practice,' said the Queen. `When I was your
age, I always did it for half-an-hour a day. Why, sometimes I've believed as
many as six impossible things before breakfast...'
- Lewis Carroll
