Membrillo is a rich paste made with quince, a fragrant yellow fruit in the apple and pear family. It is often served with Manchego cheese for a sweet and savory treat that works as an appetizer, snack, or dessert. This vegetarian recipe yields two 9-inch square pans.

Salsa Verde with Avocado
Salsa verde is a flavorful green sauce made with fresh tomatillos; it is a popular condiment in Mexican cuisine. My recipe for Salsa Verde with Avocado results in a mild sauce (I’m a spicy food wuss), but you can adjust the heat as you see fit. We use salsa verde on just about everything; I’m fond of adding it to grilled tofu.
