Candied Kumquat

The fruit may be left whole, halved, or quartered, the form deciding the time of cooking. The kumquats may be candied as for cherries, or first cooked till tender, then placed in a thick, boiling syrup, for fifteen minutes, placed in the sun to dry, and the process continued till sufficiently candied, when sugar may be sprinkled over them before packing away, though this may be omitted.
