    I have made this dish several times. It is always a hit. My vegetarians friends love it once they know they can eat it. Tyler, you are my favorite , you rock.

    Outstanding taste & presentation on this appetizer. Exotic and yummy. To the gourmet food group person - what about using the leftover Quince paste as a base for a vinaigrette for either a savoury or fruit salad? That's what I plan to do. Give it a try. Beat you to the salad bowl !!
