Quince is a one-of-a-kind fruit from the rose family that looks similar to an apple but is a bit bigger and rounder. It has a surprisingly sweet, but very tart flavor, which is why it is not as widely eaten as other fruits. Raw quince is often used for jams, jellies, and pies. It can also be poached, baked, or added to savory dishes. The fruit is particularly popular in the Middle East and Mediterranean where it is commonly served with cinnamon, sugar, and honey.
