Kumquats are a delightful, bite-sized citrus fruit with a unique twist—you can enjoy them whole, skin and all. They boast a vibrant, shiny orange skin that contrasts beautifully with their juicy, tart yet sweet interior. Oval-shaped and petite, kumquats are often eaten raw, giving a burst of bright, zesty flavor that refreshes the palate. These small fruits are highly versatile in the kitchen: they can be candied, used as a garnish for cocktails and desserts, or added to savory dishes for a citrusy zing. Besides tantalizing your taste buds, kumquats are rich in vitamin C, dietary fiber, and several essential nutrients, making them not just tasty but also a healthful addition to your diet.
