O plăcintă tradițională românească de toamnă, cu aluat fraged cu unt și o umplutură bogată de gutui parfumate, călite cu scorțișoară și zahăr vanilat. Un desert clasic, reconfortant și plin de savoare.
Preparation method
Preparing the quince filling
Thoroughly wash the fresh quinces, remove the fuzz with a clean towel, then coarsely grate them skin-on (avoiding the core).
Place the grated quinces in a large saucepan together with the granulated white sugar and vanilla sugar. Cook over medium heat for 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until softened and the released juice reduces.
Turn off the heat, add the ground cinnamon and wheat semolina (which will absorb the remaining moisture). Mix well and let the filling cool completely.
Chef's tip
For an even richer flavor, choose well-ripened, fragrant quinces with an intense golden-yellow hue.
Dust the pie with powdered sugar only after it has cooled completely, so the sugar remains fine and light.
