Cómo preparar Honey Poached Quinces

In a large pot, combine 4 cups water, 1 cup granulated sugar, ½ cup honey, ¼ cup lemon juice, and the zest of 1 lemon. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until the sugar dissolves completely.
Add 6 firm quinces (peeled, cored, and quartered) to the pot. Return to a boil.
Reduce heat to low, partially cover the pot, and simmer gently until the quinces are very tender, about 1 hour 45 minutes to 2 hours. Check for tenderness with a fork.
Carefully remove the poached quinces from the syrup using a slotted spoon and set aside.
Increase heat to medium-high and boil the remaining syrup until reduced to about 4 cups, about 20 minutes. This will thicken the syrup.
Gently return the quinces to the reduced syrup. Let cool completely, then refrigerate for at least 2 hours or up to 3 days to allow the flavors to meld.
While the quinces are cooling, toast ½ cup sliced almonds in a small heavy skillet over medium heat, stirring constantly, until golden brown (6-8 minutes). Set aside to cool.
Serve the chilled quinces with their honey syrup, a dollop of plain Greek yogurt (optional), and a generous sprinkle of toasted almonds.
