Theme Day - Zest

Kumquats are a delightfully tart member of the citrus family, tasting a little like the distillation of a Lisbon Lemon and a Seville Orange. I have about 50 fruit left on the bush in a terracotta pot, in a walkway, in my veggie patch.
The fruit is too small, and the rind too thin, to grate Kumquat zest, so, when making my Kumquat Mamalade, I will rely on the zest of a lemon to enhance the thinly sliced Kumquat peel.
