Tips:

1. When selecting kumquats, pay attention to whether there are soft skins. If they are soft, they will rot.
2. Washing with flour can stick to remove pesticide residues. When you press it with your hands, the juice will flow out. If you don’t mind, pour it into it and boil it for better coughing. The soup can be taken with boiling water.
3. When cooking kumquats, be sure to watch the heat (a low fire is suitable), otherwise the sugar water will overflow. Cook the kumquats until they are a little transparent and ready to be served.
4. If you do more, sterilize the bottle first, dry it, and seal it for a period of time.
