Kumquat

Kumquat is a small citrus fruit originally from East Asia (often associated with Fortunella species) and is used whole—peel and all—in jams, marmalades, salads and as a tart-sweet snack. It is known for its thin, edible skin and intense citrus aroma that makes it popular in both sweet and savory dishes. Nutritionally, Kumquat is a nutrient-dense fruit that provides 6.5g of fiber per 100g, and is also a good source of vitamin C and low in fat, making it a refreshing, low-calorie addition to the diet. Its edible peel means you get extra fiber and plant compounds compared with peeled citrus. From a health perspective, kumquats support digestion thanks to their fiber content and contribute antioxidants (including polyphenols) and beneficial micronutrients, so they make a healthy, flavorful way to boost fruit intake.
