NX Dried Kumquat 100g

If fresh kumquats’ sourness is too intense for many people, then candied kumquats are reliably sweet with an enjoyable nuance of bitter and tart. Nam Xanh only selected fresh kumquats that are plump and firm, with a smooth, shiny rind ranging from yellow-orange to deep orange. The fruits are then dried into flower-shaped chewy candies, which are perfect alongside tea, as a soft topping for cakes, ice cream, or anything you can dream up. Not only a symbol of prosperity and a traditional gift at Lunar New Year, these candied kumquats can also be called “the sweetness of sour”. Fresh kumquats are partly cut along vertical sides, followed by light pressing to remove their seeds, which still remain unbroken to avoid bittering, while remaining the aromatic essential oil in the skin. The kumquat are then dried to be finished. Nam Xanh only selected fresh kumquats that are plump and firm, with a smooth, shiny rind ranging from yellow-orange to deep orange
