Anyone got any must-do kumquat recipes? The tree in my backyard has gone nuts. The main thing that pops up online is marmalade.
There’s also a loquat tree but it hasn’t produced quite yet.
First time I had a kumquat, my brother in law plucked one off a tree in Isla Mujares and popped it in my mouth. I had no idea what the fuck I was eating (in fairness to me, I was 15 and they were not readily available in Michigan at the time).is this .... made up?
kumquat and loquat trees????
What do you do with loquats? I have started pulling off the fruit as soon as I see it to stop the Raccoons grabbing it all. Too many seeds and not enough actual fruit to make them worth doing anything with, they usually end up in the green recycling.

Had a craving for banana bread this morning, but we don’t own any loaf pans...so I baked this in a buttered non-stick pot(rated to 350deg). Ended up taking about 20mins less than it would normally does in a loaf pan. Added some cocoa powder for extra depth. Texture came out amazing...a little crispy on the outside.

Day 1 of ramen cooking beginning for dinner Friday and likely many more after. Going for 10-12 quarts. Kombu, shitakes, chickens, couple pounds of bacon, and now a bunch of pork neck bones that I’ll simmer for 12-24 hours. Pork belly also in fridge brining.
And since I love spicy ramen.. some ass burner chile/garlic oil.
Tare, noodles, eggs, and some collard greens either tomorrow night or Friday morning.




Does NC banana bread usually come with sesame and pumpkin seeds on top?
I'll Grant you that, most jarred sauce is too sweet.Marinara from a jar is gross
