Bosnian Stuffed Quince with Walnuts - Bosnia and Herzegovina traditional dish

🧂 材料

4 medium Large quinces(about 2 pounds total)
500 ml Water(for poaching)
200 g Granulated sugar(divided, for syrup and filling)
1 tbsp Lemon juice(fresh)
150 g Ground walnuts
1 tsp Ground cinnamon
50 g Optional: Chopped walnuts(for garnish)

👨‍🍳 作り方

1
In a large pot, combine 500ml water, 100g of the sugar, and the lemon juice. Bring to a boil.
2
Peel the quinces, cut them in half, and carefully remove the cores. You can use a melon baller or a small spoon. As you prepare them, drop the quince halves into the boiling syrup to prevent browning.
3
Reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and simmer the quinces for 45-60 minutes, or until they are tender when pierced with a fork. The quince should turn a beautiful pink color.
4
While the quinces are poaching, prepare the filling. In a medium bowl, combine the ground walnuts, the remaining 100g sugar, and the ground cinnamon. Mix well.
5
Once the quinces are tender, carefully remove them from the syrup and place them cut-side up in a baking dish. Spoon the walnut mixture into the hollowed-out centers of each quince half.
6
Pour a few tablespoons of the poaching syrup over the stuffed quinces. Bake in a preheated oven at 180°C (350°F) for 15-20 minutes, or until the filling is lightly golden and fragrant.
7
Serve the stuffed quinces warm, drizzled with extra poaching syrup. Garnish with chopped walnuts if desired.
