Kumquat & Tangarine Jam

  The current recipe is a recipe

for Kumquat and Tangarine jam.  

I poste you the video at the end of the article

  I have discovered this fruit here in Florida

for the first time, during the state fair, a festival

 which gets organized every year.

 

    Kumquats are fruit trees of the family

Rutaceae, native of China and Malaysia.

Today they are cultivated in the United States more

In particular in the South Florida and California.

    The kumquat is a small round or oval fruit from 2 to 5 cms 

of length. It's yellow-orange peel is edible.

Its flesh is acidulated.

   Kumquats is often cooked whole in compote 

or candied. It is also used in cake 

and in cooking, incorporated into stuffing

or bitter-sweet sauces. 

   It can be consumed directly with the peel which is soft

what gives a sweet flavor to the  strong and slightly bitter fruit,

which is the opposite of other citrus fruits.   

 I prepared several jams as you can

see at my blog site, but honestly

this jam is my favorite.
