How to make?

Ingredients

2 quinces, peeled and cut into wedges

1/4 cup white wine vinegar

2 tablespoons honey

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste

4 cups mixed salad greens

1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese

1/4 cup chopped walnuts

Directions

Peel, quarter, and core each quince. Put the quinces, honey, and lemon zest in a 3-quart saucepan. Add enough water to cover the quinces by 1 inch . Bring to a boil over mediumhigh heat. Put a plate or a lid that’s smaller than the saucepan on the quinces to submerge them. Reduce the heat to a simmer and cook until the quinces are tender when pierced with a knife, about 45 minutes. Let them cool in the cooking liquid. Toss the mâche or arugula, ham, and olive oil in a large bowl. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Divide the salad evenly among 4 plates. Slice the quinces and arrange on each plate. Sprinkle the almonds and cheese on top. Drizzle each salad with 1 tsp. of the balsamic vinegar.
