How to Make Kumquat Salsa
- Finely mince 2 jalapeños (remove seeds for less heat) and 2 cloves of garlic. Chop 1/2 cup of fresh cilantro.
- Cut 1 cup of kumquats in half lengthwise. Gently remove the pulp and set aside. Reserve the empty kumquat shells.
- Place the kumquat pulp in a small saucepan. Add 1/4 cup fresh orange juice, 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice, and 2 tablespoons brown sugar. Bring to a simmer over medium heat.
- While the kumquat pulp simmers (about 10-15 minutes), reducing to a jam-like consistency, slice the reserved kumquat shells into 1/2-inch pieces.
- Add the sliced kumquat shells to the saucepan and continue to simmer until the shells are tender (another 5-7 minutes).
- Remove from heat and let cool slightly. Stir in the minced jalapeños, garlic, and cilantro.
- Season generously with salt and pepper to taste.
- Serve chilled or at room temperature.
