When life gives you a bag full of kumquats, you can’t make lemonade, but you can make marmalade. This latest batch of marmalade had tons of kumquats, a blood orange or two, and a few slices of grapefruit.
the ‘meat’ of the marmalade all chopped up and ready to be cooked

filling up the sterilized jars

tada! Now all we need is some bread to spread this on.






Hi Louise! Your marmalade sounds terrific and the funny thing is that I have just prepared my Friday post about… kumquats! I have had them for the first time in my life this year so it was my first experiment.
