Candied Kumquats

1. Stage

Prep the kumquats: With a pairing knife roughly chop the kumquats. Discard any seeds you can that are easy to get too, but they're edible so don't fret if some get chopped up or stay in the fruit. Feel free to leave any small kumquats whole.

2. Stage

Make the syrup, then simmer the kumquats: Heat the water and sugar over high heat until it comes to a boil. Simmer for 4 minutes. Add the kumquats and simmer for 10 minutes.

3. Stage

Drain the kumquats, reduce the syrup, and add the kumquats back: Drain the kumquats through a sieve set over a bowl. Return the syrup to the pan and simmer for 5 minutes to reduce the syrup. Combine the kumquats and 1/4 cup of the syrup together. Serve or jar and refrigerate. Can be stored for up to two weeks. Did you love the recipe? Give us some stars and leave a comment below!
