  4. After fishing it out, use a toothpick-like tool to remove the seeds from the incision. If you choose seedless ones, you can skip this step.

  5. After processing all the kumquats, soak them in water for an hour to remove the bitter taste. Of course, you can also boil them with water 2 to 3 times for about 3 minutes each time to remove the bitter taste.

  6. Then take out the kumquats and put them into a pot. Fill the pot with water just enough to cover the kumquats. Add all the sugar. (Some people like to add sugar in two or three times. I am lazy and add it all at once)

  7. Cook over medium heat for about 5 minutes, then turn to low heat and simmer until the surface of the kumquats becomes transparent and the soup becomes viscous. Foam is easy to appear during the cooking process, so be sure to skim off the foam in time.
