Les Confitures du Climont Quince Jam

Unique Delight from Alsace

The Quince Extra Jam from Les Confitures du Climont is a true delight, handmade in France. Made from high-quality quinces according to traditional methods, this jam offers a unique flavor and a pleasant texture. The Codignat de Nostradamus gives this jam a special note and makes it an exquisite taste experience.

The Quince and Nostradamus

The quince is a large yellow fruit in the shape of a pear with a downy skin. Its flesh is very hard and inedible raw, so it is processed into jelly or jam. Michel de Nostredame, known as Nostradamus, is best known for his predictions but also turns out to be a nutritionist. Following one of Hippocrates' commandments, "Let your food be your medicine," he explains to the people of his time how to eat better. In 1555, he wrote the "Traité des Fardements," from which an excerpt comes: "Ways to prepare all marmalades." From this book, we extracted the recipe for Codignat, in which the pulp for the quince jam is "passed" through a filter and cooked in sugar.
