Your support helps us to tell the story

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

This works very well with poultry, game birds or roast pork dishes.

4 quince, peeled and cored
A small piece of cinnamon stick
6 cloves
6 juniper berries
200g granulated sugar
1 lemon, halved

Place the quince in a large saucepan with the rest of the ingredients.

Cover with water, bring to the boil and simmer for about 45 minutes, or until the quince is soft enough to mash.

Drain the quince in a colander over a pan, reserving the juice for a jelly and leave to cool.

Cut the quince in half, then blend the flesh in a food processor to a purée or leave it with a coarse texture.

To serve, reheat with a little of the cooking liquor.
