### FREEZING QUINCE

        Quince  freezes  well  enough  to  permit  its  use  in

    jellies,
     jams  and sauces.  To prepare,  peel,  quarter and

    core
     the fruit,  removing the hard pieces around the  core.

    Cut
     into  chunks.   Steam  blanch  the   quince   for  four

    minutes
     or  water  blanch  for  two  minutes.   Drain   and

    immediately
     plunge  the chunks into ice water to  stop  the

    cooking
    process.   Drain very thoroughly,  tray-freeze, then

    transfer
    to freezer bags.   Seal, label and freeze.
