Wow. That is an incredibly good price. I thought quince season was back
around December and January and thus long over. Baron Akim got a great
buy on quince, although I don't remember it being this good, and made a
bunch of quince paste and brought it to Pennsic several years ago.
Wonderful stuff.
For those interested in more quince information and some period
recipes, see these files in the FOOD-FTUITS and the FOOD-SWEETS section
