quince is very high in pectin - so great to add a little to any jam to help it set.
we have quite a few trees here.
its also good boiled up with apples and pears, gives a lemony taste. but a bit strong for our taste on its own.

That’s interesting my second lot of jam this year I used sugar with pectin but I was a bit disappointed with myself in some ways. The Jam was fantastic and perfectly set but I did not like the fact that the side of the bag showed E numbers.
How much quince would I need to put in to replace the pectin content of a 1kg Jam sugar bag.
I am stuck between what worked and wanting the Jam to be a natural as possible.
I am now out of blackberry and wish I had frozen some or made a larger batch (or not been as generous giving them to family).
Thanks
