Quince paste with cheese

Dulce de membrillo con queso

Traditionally and predominantly from Spain, Portugal and Italy (exported when the South of Italy was part of the Kingdom of Aragón), dulce de membrillo is a firm, sticky, sweet reddish hard paste made of quince. Quince paste has its origins in antiquity and ancient recipes indicate that it was formerly made with honey. Greek legend recounts how the nymphs offered it to Zeus when he was a child.
