If You Read Nothing Else

The one citrus eaten whole, skin and all. Sweet skin, sour flesh.

The peel adds fibre and aromatic oils.

Here's what makes kumquat different: the most nutritious part of citrus is the part people throw away. A kumquat is small enough that the peel becomes the point, so you get compounds from the skin that a peeled orange never gives you.

Whole-fruit fibre with the peel, no preparation, and easy portioning. A small bowl of kumquats is a low-effort way to keep winter fruit in the day.

Vitamin C in a very small package. Aromatic oils that most citrus eating misses.
