Savory sweet kumquat cordial |
Sort of similar in taste to traditional salted kumquat drink, this is an instant version, a good healthy electrolyte drink. Can make it with lemon or lime too, using the zest only.
1. Cut kumquat into quarters, remove seeds, add 5% its weight in salt, mix well and let it rest to soften for a couple of hours.
2. Add juice of a lemon, simmer for 10 minutes, stirring gently.
3. Make a syrup with brown sugar, same weight as kumquat, in half the weight in water, bring to boil.
4. Add syrup to kumquat mixture, store in jars and keep in the fridge.
5 To serve, dilute to 15-20 times its volume in water.
