There are always loads of recipes I'd like to try but lose them before I do. This is where I can record recipes I find interesting and keep notes on my experiments with them.

I have a system that I've adopted for working through recipes:

1 - New recipes are saved to the Experimental Mouffette and is labeled : Untested
2 - As I'm working out the changes I'd like to make (if any) it is labeled : Testing
3 - Once I think I've got the correct formula it is labeled : Test 1
4 - IF I am able to reproduce the effect a second time it is labeled : Test 2 - if I am not able to reproduce the effect, it remains Test 1
5 - The same process as step 4 is used to graduate it to Test 3
6 - Once I have been able to reproduce the effect successfully 3 times, it graduates to my main blog, La Mouffette Gourmande

Quince paste and recipes

All the recipes are below. I decided to start by trying to make quince paste. I do not understand why I have to peel and core them and then put the pits in a little baggy with the lemon peel. Instead, I put everything in, so about 1kg of quince with 1kg of sugar and the peels of 2 lemons. 

OK! Using the fruit press on whole cooked fruit is really hard and not efficient. In future, I will peel and retain the pits to add in a little satchel with the peeled zest of 2 lemons. Ugh, that will be so much easier!

I boiled the resulting strained liquid once, ran this through a fine mesh sieve, then brought it to a boil again, using the cold plate method to decide when it was gelled. I then buttered a piece of parchment paper which I then used to line a cookie sheet, and poured out the quince paste, putting it in the refrigerator to help it set.

I set beautifully, but now I wonder what to do with it. How do I store it like this? I think using small Mason jars would be better.
