Quince cheese (Quittenkäse) - Kitnkez - Kristina Gašpar
I've never made this sweet before, and I don't even remember the last time I ate it.
I remember a winter day and grandma's quince cheese...
- 500 g of quince (cleaned and chopped)
- 100 g lemon (without peel)
- 400 g of sugar
- 1 vanilla stick (or one vanilla sugar)
- walnuts (if needed)
- hazelnuts (if needed)
- sesame seeds (if needed)
- granulated sugar (if needed)
- Pour water over the quinces and lemons (so that they are "soaked").
Cook at a lower temperature until the water evaporates.
Make a puree of quince and lemon (with a stick mixer, in a blender...).
Return to the stove and add sugar.
Cook until it thickens (when the curd leaves a mark on the bottom of the pan, the quince cheese is ready).
You can pour the quince cheese into silicone or metal molds of the desired size and shape.
You can also pour the mixture into a regular pan and cut it into pieces when the kitnkez has set.
- If desired, you can mix in chopped walnuts, then pour the kitnkez into a mold or tray.
I'm used to kitnkez with walnuts, that's how my family prepared it.
Grandma usually put it between two wafer sheets and later cut it into bars.
I decided on prayers.
Once you remove it from the molds or cut it, you can roll it in granulated sugar, sesame, coconut, ground nuts and the like.
