You let your juyce or expression
settle a while, that if any of the thick substance be come out with it, it
may settle to the bottom; for you are to use for this only the clear juyce:
which to have it the clearer, you may let it run through a large, thin,
open, strainer, without pressing it. When you boil the whole Quinces, you
take them out, to strain them as soon as their skins crack, and that they
are quite soft; which will not happen to them all at the same time, but
according to their bigness and ripeness. Therefore first take out and press
those, that are ready first: and the rest still as they grow to a fit state
to press. You shall have more juyce by pressing the Quinces in a torcular,
but it will be clearer, doing it with your hands; both ways, you lap them
in a strainer.
WHITE MARMULATE, THE QUEENS WAY
Take a pound and an half of flesh of Quinces sliced, one pound of Sugar,
and one pound of Liquor (which is a decoction made very strong of Quinces
boiled in fair water). Boil these with a pretty quick fire, till they be
enough, and that you find it gellieth.
