Sezamo
Un desert clasic românesc de toamnă, aromat și reconfortant. Gutuile parfumate sunt coapte la cuptor până devin fragede și caramelizate, umplute cu miez crocant de nucă, scorțișoară aromată și miere polifloră aurie.
Preparation method
Preparing the Quinces
Preheat the oven to 180°C. Wash the quinces well under cold running water to remove the characteristic fuzz from the skin, then dry them with a clean towel.
Cut each quince in half lengthwise. Using a teaspoon or a small knife, carefully remove the core with seeds and the hard woody part in the middle, creating a small hollow for the filling.
Drizzle the quince flesh immediately with freshly squeezed lemon juice to prevent oxidation and add a pleasant note of freshness.
Chef's tip
Choose well-ripened, yellow, and fragrant quinces without soft spots. The more aromatic they are, the more delicious the dessert will be.
You can also add a few raisins or dried cranberries to the walnut filling for an extra sweet-and-sour touch.
