What is a "kumquat"?
Kumquat is a small citrus fruit that is native to Southeast Asia. It is characterized by its small size, oval shape, and thin edible skin. Unlike other citrus fruits, the sweet and tangy flavor of the kumquat lies in its peel, while the flesh is slightly sour. Kumquats are often eaten whole, including the skin, providing a unique burst of sweet and sour taste in a single bite. They can also be used in various culinary applications, such as marmalades, sauces, and desserts, adding a vibrant citrusy twist. With their refreshing flavor and versatility, kumquats are a delightful addition to both sweet and savory dishes, offering a unique sensory experience.
