I have some kumquat bushes that are sprouting some thorny limbs. Should these limbs be removed and when is the best time?
Pruning kumquats?
Are you limbs coming from below the graft? If so, those are your rootstock, and yes, you can and should prune them off.
You can prune citrus anytime, but you may lose some fruit.

What can I do with a bag of kumquats?
I bought a 2-lb bag because I'd never tried a kumquat before. The flavor is ok, but I can't take the texture.
Are there good kumquat recipes?
Thanks.
What can I do with a bag of kumquats?
make kumquat jam.......you can find in the Internet..
or kumquat syrup
-%26gt; kumquat cut into small pieces. try to remove the cut up seed ( cause the syrup to be bitter).. waste it clean..
-%26gt; water
-%26gt; sugar.
add enough water to cover it boil till everything is soft( about 1/2 hour) .add 1/2 amount of sugar ( boil till the water is thicken...... filter the flesh and keep the liquid ...
Great with soda water, cocktails and etc..
Reply:try making a smoothie! that would blend off the texture, leaving the delicious sweet flavour behind!
Reply:Oh, My. I've got so many ideas...bring them over.
Reply:Some recipes, including one for a marmalade. It might use most of the kumquats you have.

How do you prepare kumquats and are they good?
I've never had a kumquat before and I noticed them at the supermarket the other day.
How do you prepare kumquats and are they good?
Here's a couple of sites to look at.
Reply:Wash them because lots of people pick them up out of curiosity. Then, eat a small one. You'll either hate or love them. Or even better, slice into small slices, then try one. I think they're too tart for out-of-hand eating, so I make a simple sugar syrup (about 1 cup of water, 1/2 cup or less sugar), bring to a slow boil, then lower the heat, add the quats, then simmer for about 10-15 minutes. They'll turn translucent. Drain, cool and add to a fruit salad. Or on ice cream. Lotsa luck.
Reply:They are fine to eat skin and all..you can also make preserves with them..sort of like a marmalade..
A little tart..kind of like eating an entire orange in one bite..
Reply:wash them and eat them, rinds and all - they are different, but delicious!!!

Reply:NO! KUM is a prefix meaning "with". The word kumquat translates as meaning "with quat." So a kumquat is made from quat!
Reply:I'm just laughing along for the sake of my 2 extra points! Oh, by the way, the spelling's not kum.

Kumquats (Cumquats-British spelling) have been called "the little gold gems of the citrus family". The kumquat has a thin, sweet peel and a zesty, somewhat tart center. The kumquat tastes best if it is gently rolled between the fingers before being eaten, as this releases the essential oils in the rind. Eat kumquats as you would eat grapes (with the peel).
The kumquat's unique flavor lends itself as a pleasant addition to many food dishes, deserts, and salads. The kumquat can be candied or kabobed with other fruits or vegetables with meats, such as poultry, duck, pork or lamb. It is also a favorite for jelly, marmalade and chutney.
When picked with leaves, kumquats make great winter holiday decorations and make a superb garnish for entrees and drinks.

Are you more of a collared green, a sweet potato, or a kumquat?
(can you tell I'm hungry from my last three questions?)

Errrr, collared green is very insensitive. It's "African American" green. Are you living in the fifties?
I'm a sweet potato.

Reply:I'm a sweet potato sprinkled with cinnamon %26amp; sugar!
Reply:I've never really liked any of the three, but if I had to pick I would say I'm a Sweet Potato
Reply:I'm shaped like a kumquat, I have something between my toes that's the color of a sweet potato, and collared greens are never on the menu. So I'm not sure what that makes me, but it's probably not very appetizing.
Reply:I'm a collared green type of a guy with an slab of ribs!! thank ya very much!
Reply:None of them! They're all gross.
Reply:I have no green shirts, thus I cannot be collared green. You teach what subject?
BTW - horseradish and jalepeno mix. Mmmmm, goes good on Panda Food.
Reply:Kumquat, because I like to say kumquat.
I also like to say "penumbra."
Penumbra.
Kumquat.
Reply:Kumquat no the word is as replusive as the fruit itself. I don't mind sweet potatoes but I prefer them only on holidays. However "politically" correct or not collard greens are awsome and I splurge sometimes at a local joint. I find it amusing that the idea of "collard greens" is associated with a racially specific stereotype. A news flash those of darker pigment then the "token jesus",of the North have been known to pass on collard greens. It's more a poor man thing then a "african american" thing. It was an inexpensive item in it's day and when a large populace of the south was of darker pigment and poor they cornered the market. This does not however make it a "black mans" field of expertise or preference. I like mine with bacon bits, heavy salt, a side of ribs and a history lesson. I am however " skin pigment challenged" but I do like the authenticity of this place owned by an Asain American and an African American.
Reply:Sweet potato, baby!
Reply:OMG Dee..are you a real woman?
Collard greens? I so looove collard greens with bacon or ham ..hey why not throw in both...make boiled potato's with it, lots of pepper...
I am on my way....I'll bring the beer....
