Quince Jelly

Quince looks like a green pear on steroids. Texture is a mix between a Granny Smith apple and a sand (canning) pear. Taste between a Granny Smith’s apple and a lemon. Almost as hard as a rock to cut up. My Dad and Aunt love it, me, not so much. #GoldenApron23

Quince Jelly (Carne de Membrillo) Quince Jelly (Carne de Membrillo)
Carne de membrillo. I make this quince simmered in sugar every year in the fall. Homemade carne de membrillo is far superior to the store-bought type. This recipe is the result of a lot of hard work and trying out various methods. In 2010, I had a bumper crop of quince, so I gave some of this to my neighbors, too, and it was a big hit.The typical recipe for this calls for a 1:1 ratio of quince to sugar, but since that's too sweet, I just use 40% of the weight of the quince in sugar. (You could lower it to 30% to make it even less sweeter, but it will take more time to dry properly.) If you do reduce the sugar, make to sure dry the surface of each piece thoroughly, so that they will keep longer. Recipe by Bellota cookpad.japan -
Strawberry Jelly Strawberry Jelly
I love strawberries so I use lots of them.I always make this when I can get my hands on cheap and tasty strawberries.I finally came up with this recipe after many trial and errors, thinking about the following points: To prevent discoloration, the gelatin liquid should be pinkish, prevent scum floating on top and keep a nice strawberry texture. The picture has two layers, and the bottom part is milk pudding. I used gelatin that requires 250 ml liquid per 5 g gelatin powder. Please check the gelatin package and adjust the amount of liquid you use. Recipe by Ma-nyan cookpad.japan -

Coffee Jelly Coffee Jelly
I adapted a recipe I saw in a book to use instant coffee, and added a little sugar.If you have granulated sugar, use that instead of regular white sugar. I think it gives a slightly more refined sweetness.As I wrote in the introduction, I added a lot of gelatin to make it the consistency I like, so you can use less if you prefer.

Peach Jelly with Cream Cheese Peach Jelly with Cream Cheese
I have some cream cheese at home. I wanted to make some cheesecake at first, but in this weather (my city is getting pretty hot these days) I think we would prefer something lighter. You can increase or decrease the sugar according to your preference. This recipe yields 9 or 12 pieces of jelly, depending on how big you want to cut it. Angela Mertoyono -
