Take Quinces, as you pare them, put them into cold water (els they will looke redd) boile all together in water; & as your water discolours, change it (two, or three waters will suffice) when they are a litle tender, take them out of that liquour, put the weight of them (unpared) of Sugar to them & put as much water to them as will cover them. Take kernells of one Quince & bind them up in a peice of Tiffeny, & put them into the syrrop & boyle them all up, till they bee very tender. Cover them not, for then they will waxe redd.
