I am wondering if the quinces have to be peeled-(that process is not for the weak). I followed your recipe and found it very good. However, I found that the lemon overpowered the quince taste, so when I made another batch, I used orange juice and rind. My husband and I liked orange much better. Quince recipes are hard to find as most people don't come across quinces that often. We have a two year old tree and I was supposed to wait and let it grow for another year before allowing it to fruit. My impatience got the better of me and I let 9 quinces grow and they got very large. It only took two quinces for make the four cups called for in your marmalade recipe! Your recipe is very simple and very good! Thanks so much!
