The power of plants
The quince is a small tree native to the Caucasus, and can now be found all around the Mediterranean Basin. In ancient times, its golden, velvety-skinned fruit—the quince—was offered to newlyweds as a token of love and fertility. When cooked, the hard, bitter flesh becomes sweet and delicious and is eaten in the form of jellies or jellied fruits.
