This fruit jelly made from quince does not require much sugar, because instead of gelling sugar, agar-agar powder is used here. This makes it easier to adjust the sugar content by itself.

You can refine the fruit jelly with other types of fruit as you wish. Also delicious: a pinch of cinnamon gives the quince fruit jelly a Christmassy touch!

The fruit jelly can be kept for at least one month if filled in sterile jars and stored in a cool place.
