Grand Marnier Marmalade
2 cups thinly sliced kumquats

in a cool place for 12 hours. Pour into medium saucepan and bring to a

Measure this mixture and add equal amount of sugar. Again bring to a

I guess she was sippin' a little too much Gran Marnier! I didn't notice the
directions, just the ingredients. But George is a smart guy with a kumquat
tree, he'll figger it out for us or contact whatzername in the website to
clarify.

Yup, but don't remember where. My favorite kumquat recipe is to take a
quart fruit jar, fill it half full of washed and dried kumquats that
have been pierced with a knife blade on four sides. Then cover them with
100 proof vodka, seal with the Tilia jar sealer and let sit for 6 months
to a year. Open jar, eat kumquats, all eat them, vodka sip a little,
then sip a lot of all, then go to bed and sleep it off.
