Quince and Cream Cheese Pastry (Pastel de Membrillo)
I recently had lunch at the Anaheim Packing District with my sister and a few friends. We each picked out something to eat and then reconvened in the communal dining area. I opted for a juicy rib eye sandwich and my sister got crispy fish and chips.Our friend, Monique, ordered a sweet and savory grilled cheese sandwich with quince paste, which inspired this recipe.
