Blush-Pink & Fragrant
Quince turns a beautiful deep pink when slow-cooked — a sign of authentic, properly made Murabba-e-Behi. No artificial colour needed.
The Story of Kashmiri Murabba-e-Behi
Every September, the quince trees (locally known as Bum Choonth in Kashmiri) fill the valleys of Kashmir with their unmistakable sweet fragrance. Unlike regular apples, quince is tart and firm in its raw form — but when slow-cooked with care, it transforms into a rich, deeply flavoured preserve of extraordinary beauty. This tradition of making Murabba-e-Behi has been passed down through Kashmiri households for centuries, cherished both as a daily breakfast spread and as a home remedy recommended by traditional Hakeem physicians for cough and respiratory wellness.
At Kashmir Craft, we honour this heritage by sourcing fresh quince from orchard farmers in the Kashmir valley, slow-cooking in small batches, and sealing without any artificial preservative — so every jar you receive carries the genuine taste and warmth of Kashmiri tradition.
