Medlar/Mespillus germanica

So, strange fruit it is - Mespillus germanica. Here in germany they often confuse it with Eriobotrya japonica. Most of the recipes in germany mix them up because they both are called the same here. I found out that the leaves are used for healing purposes in Japan BUT I am looking for recipes other than medlar jelly and medlar liquor. I have like so much fruits lying around and wonder what to cook. I don't know how other people extract the pulp(?) but for large quantities I added quite a lot(1l) of water, cooked it until the pulp separated from the seeds and poured it through a fine-mesh sieve. For now I have Medlar-sauce and 10kg of fruit still ripening in my larder. Help me Rayman-help me! The japanese name would enable me for recipes as well, Thanks so much!
