Pop one of these in your mouth for a burst of bittersweet flavor. Ingredients:
6 tablespoons granulated sugar |
1 1/2 tablespoons chili powder |
4 teaspoons powdered egg whites (see cooks' notes) |
1/4 cup warm water |
60 kumquats (preferably thin-skinned) |
Directions:
1. Stir together sugar and chili powder. Whisk egg whites with water until dissolved. Working with 1 kumquat at a time, dip 1 side in whites, letting excess drip off, then dip in sugar mixture. Transfer to a rack to dry, coated side up. 2. Cooks' notes: 1/4 cup pasteurized liquid egg whites may be substituted for the mixture of powdered ones and water. Coat kumquats 3 days ahead and keep, between layers of wax paper, in an airtight container at room temperature. |
