🫖 I made my first cup of #quince tea from the dried quince offcuts. There are much more complicated recipes but I just infused the offcuts in the coffee press (handy for making herbal teas too), and sipped without sweetener.

🫖 It was interesting and very nice. Hints of lemon, apple, herbs. Gentle. Surprisingly it doesn't need sweetening. I'll dry some more.

🫙 Sadly, the quince vinegar developed some unwanted intruders - it happens and I am thankful that I have only ever had 1 other ferment go awry. I wasn't paying as much attention to it as I did the grape vinegar. But thankfully the citrus scrap vinegar is looking fiiiiine.

🫙 🟠 So today I'll start some more quince vinegar and 1 or 2 other quince ferments.

11 years ago we became owners of a summerhouse. 7 years ago I planted this quince and not once it has given any fruits (and it's supposed to be self-pollinated) but the flowers are very beautiful so it's forgiven every spring.

Dwarf Japanese Flowering Quince

#BloomScrolling #quince

Wow I've never had so many quince flowers. Maybe this is the year we'll finally get some fruit.

Fragrance of Japanese quince (Chaenomeles japonica) is what makes me long for fall and harvest season. It's divine.
Making wine with fruits from the garden (plums, cornelian cherries, apples and pears). First time working with these so yolo, let's see how does that turn out.

Now it's actually time to bottle so I am looking forward.
