Quince is back in fashion thanks to Mercadona, that essential travel companion of a good cheese on toast that we ate at the grandparents’ house is available in the supermarket. This sweet will remind us of those times when everything or almost everything was made at home, Mercadona achieves the impossible by recreating the hands of grandparents and grandmothers who merge in the creation of this kind of jam with a soul. A traditional sweet has never been so expected as in these times, thanks to Mercadona we will enjoy it as before.

Cheese with quince is a tapas or appetizer that we have eaten until we can no longer. With a good wine or the first experiences with cava we discover this sweet delight that needs a salty touch to stand out even more. This contrast of cheese with quince is like life itself , sometimes sweet, sometimes salty, but always just as wonderful.
The philosophy of creating the homemade quince , doing it with love, transforming a fruit that was collected as a family into a sweet made in a large pot that came out only once a year for the occasion is reflected in this Mercadona product. Close your eyes, take out a spoon and taste directly without anything else, this quince will make us travel back in time.
Like any sweet of this type, a good amount of sugar is used, not only for flavor, it also acts as a natural preservative. Homemade fruit preserves were and are made with sugar. In its proper measure, a few decades ago and today it can be eaten, as long as it is not contraindicated by medical prescription.
For 3 euros you will get a good 310 gram taco of quince . For an appetizer of 10, buy a brie cheese, the creaminess and flavor combined with the quince will make you jump a tear of excitement. If you have intense flavors and strong emotions, add a goat cheese and two walnuts, it will be the taste experience of the summer.
Without forgetting that in Mercadona we will find a selection of spectacular national wines to spread this delight. Making the purchase of the week will have another incentive with a quince that is being one of the most applauded novelties of Mercadona, once again, it listens to its customers and offers them quality products at a good price.
