Honey kumquat

Overview

Kumquat, also known as kumquat, belongs to the Rutaceae family and is a famous fruit plant. The peel of kumquat is fleshy and thick, smooth, has many glandular points, and has a fragrance. Native to southern my country. The fruit can be eaten raw or candied, and used as medicine to regulate qi and relieve cough. Kumquats not only have a pleasing appearance, but the peel is also fragrant and sweet, and has remarkable effects. Because the peel contains a lot of vitamin C, eating kumquats often in winter can play a good role in preventing colds. I don’t like eating kumquats very much because I don’t like the special taste. You can use a microwave oven to make your own kumquat preserves. The taste will definitely make you fall in love with it. If you don’t believe it, try it yourself. The effects of kumquats: 1.
