either juice the quince with the juicer ...

if you don't have a juicer, take the blender ...

  • If you have to go faster or you don't have a juicer, then the quince pieces are finely pureed together with the juice in the pot with the hand blender - the juicer has the advantage that the quince jam is very soft and creamy because the tiny hard ones Particles that quince often have are excreted

Since it is very thick, it must be stirred constantly so that it does not burn!
