hi Jan, a very unique recipe.. indeed it is:) cos we dont have kimquat here, never seen canned ones too... or may be it's just my eyes. next time, i will go look for it.
it color and shape is very much like one sour fruit we have locally grown....
Cool recipe! The only problem is, kumquat is not easy to find in Canada.
Not sure where they are found, but I do think Ive seen them in the gourmet produce section of the grocery store!
