I learned that kumquats make THE BEST MARMALADE!

Each fruit is halved, then quartered, de-seeded, and the pith removed. Then, what remains is cut into smallish pieces. Yes, IT’S TOTALLY WORTH IT!

Now, if it seems like too much, you could leave the pith and just cut into smallish pieces. For the couple of cups required, it only took me an hour.

Into a pot go the citrus segments, sugar, a star anise or a cinnamon stick, the juice and zest of a lemon, cayenne, and some water. Now, it macerates.

I leave this fragrant concoction to marry for about 2 hours, longer if I’ve got no particular place to go. Masceration is key to this recipes success.

Cook! The mixture will simmer until it’s a golden ochre color and thickened, about an hour. Oh and your kitchen will smell the best it’s ever smelled!

Allow to cool about 10 minutes before spooning into jars and chilling. The marmalade is ready within the hour. Go find something to toast!
