There is a recipe for Quince Paste in Harleian MS. 4016 ,recipe #182,
"Chared coneys, or chardwardon". The spiced paste is stored in a box strewn
with powdered ginger & cinnamon. It is used in the recipe for Mawmene
(Harl. MS. 4016, #99), where it is dissolved in wine and used to color &
flavor a sauce for pheasant. It is also used in Perys en Composte (Harl.
279, #35).
