Grandma’s way

Combine the cold quince pulp (I remove the peel and core first) with the gelling sugar and spices, and bring to a boil while stirring. Be careful, it burns easily! Boil for 4 minutes, stirring constantly. Spread on oiled parchment paper, baking paper, or aluminum foil (about 2 cm thick) and let dry for a day. Then cut into diamonds or strips, roll in sugar granules (which you can mix with a little vanilla sugar), and let dry for a few more days. Store in a tightly sealed container, layered between baking paper.
