The Farm Report from Turkey Hill

First Day: wash slice and seed kumquats* use an equal amount of water by weight to fruit let stand overnight.

2 c water = 1lb of Kumquats

Second Day: boil until tender

Third Day: boil 30 minutes, weigh and add equal amount of sugar.

Boil 30 minutes more

Then bottle in boiling water bath 5 min.

*cook seeds with water for added pectin and add to mixture in last boil

  All bitterness is banished. I have adjusted this from time to time and used less sugar.
