Receta Intriguing Kumquat Marmalade with a hint of Ginger
by MyCreative Flavors

Every day has a new beginning and I simply love learning new recipes from different regions and cultures from across the world. I learnt cooking from the scratch, umpteen dishes and desserts from all YOU awesome cooks. Recently, I experimented making some marmalade with kumquats. I have always been fascinated by Kumquats, the lovely plant with its lush green leaves and bright tiny Kumquat fruit. Last weekend I was lucky to have found much awaited wintery/spring fruit-fresh kumquats at the local Trader Joe's. After capturing plenty of shots of these beauties, I threw a couple of these in my bowl of salad.It was a blend of sweet and tangy. Then I thought of making Kumquat salsa to enjoy it with crackers but eventually made a marmalade so that it lasts longer :)

Little Gems are Gorgeous !!!!My wish to make these stay at my house still persists, so with utmost care I took out the seeds, washed and dried and sowed a few in my little Pots. Now keeping my fingers crossed and really wish that seeds germinate real fast ....!!!!!!!

Ingredients:

Method:

Wash and thinly slice the kumquats.

Peel one orange, deseed and add to the bowl of kumquats.

3 Step Process - Cut in Half horizontally, de-seed, thinly slice

Add powdered sugar and let it sit for at least 4-5 of hours (preferably overnight).

Now take this mix in a pan & start simmering over low heat for 10-15 mins.

Bring the mix to boil, & keep it boiling for 5 mins

Now, lower the heat again, keep at low heat for 20-25 minutes till you get a jelly kind of consistency (natural pectin in the fruit will start oozing out & gelling at this stage).

Squeeze in lemon juice and add a dash of ginger juice.

Simmer for at least 5 mins more.

Skimm of the foam if any, remove from heat & keep ready to unload into a glass jar.

Now fill the marmalade into your glass jars.

Let the jars cool down to room temperature before putting on the lid.

Seal the jar & refrigerate.

If you can sterilize the jars ahead, with hot air - it will keep longer.

Enjoy a generous spread as the marmalade is rich in antioxidants (Vitamin A,C,E) essential oils and fibre.

We have been loving our kumquat marmalade on our toast every morning since last week.

I like biting into a spoonful every now & then - it's tangy, sweet & Yumm !!!!
