Acorn squash bake better in an oven; they get a little browned and the flavor is better. I always put butternut in the oven (either upside down in a pan of water or open-side up brushed with honey).
Quince are not that intimidating! We had quince trees and my father used to eat ripe quince like apples. Quince jelly or jam tastes like the best fruit honey in the world. Just use a standard apple jelly recipe for tart apples. Green quince are not yet ripe; ripe ones turn yellow.
