Kumquats are entirely edible when ripe, rind and all. This is a delicious compote that makes a special addition to pancakes, french toast, trifles, or even topped on ice cream.

400g (14 oz) caster sugar

    This was a great recipe. I sliced the kumquats and added two teaspoons of cherry brandy. After draining it, I used the 'juice' to prepare cranberry sauce.

  • Review: MICHELLE M. SLAVEN

    This made a great side dish. I also saved the syrup I poured off and it makes a nice drink in sparkling water. If you like things very sweet you will want to add more sugar.

    Review: LAMB2LOVE

    I prefer plain, fresh kumquats to these cooked ones, but the syrup they were cooked in was pretty good.
