The kumquat

The kumquat is an orange dwarf originating in the Far East (its name comes from the Cantonese word Kam Quat meaning orange gold). Also called in Latin “Fortunela” bearer of good fortune to the lucky ones who receive kumquats as gift, as it is the tradition in the Far East. It is the symbol of happiness, prosperity and luck. It is one of those foods that make us happy.

Limequats

A tasty bittersweet cross between the lime and the kumquat, extremely juicy, and less sour than the lime, ideal for cockctails, sauces, marmalades, and chutneys. The skin is very aromatic, and the limequat can be eaten as a whole.

Lemon caviar

The lemon caviar is the real star  at the top of the gastronomy. Made up of small grains similar to the caviar, they explode in the palace, with an astonishing feeling of freshness. A few grains of lemon caviar on a fish, seafoods, sushi or sashimi will work wonders. Also add some in your gin tonic!
