Sue,
Your point about depression-era food is well taken, but that's not the
association I have with quince jam. I've loved it and eaten it for years,
and a couple of years ago in Switzerland we had it for breakfast every
morning, with lots of fresh butter and the Swiss version of croissants,
and I was quite content. I don't think there is a more interesting jam out
there, although boysenberry comes close. Now mind you, I am talking about
JAM, not jelly.
Well, that does it. I'm going to plant Cydonia. :-)
