FAQs about limequats
You can keep limequats on the counter, where they will keep for a few days while stored at room temperature. If you want them to last a little longer, place them in a sealed container or bag in the refrigerator, where they will keep for several weeks to one month. Either way, keep the limequats away from other ethylene-producing fruits as this will speed up the ripening process.
Limequats are best suited for raw and cooked applications. You can consume them whole, including the skin. Slice and add them raw to salads or use them as an edible garnish for your main dish. If you're planning to cook the fruit, you should consider removing the seeds, as they usually have a bitter flavor. Use them as a substitute for lemons or limes in desserts, or cook them down to create marmalade, jelly, and jam.
Another popular way to prepare limequats is to candy them. Make four small slashes lengthwise to each limequat. Use a toothpick to remove the seeds. Bring one cup of water and two cups of sugar to boil. Place the four cups of limequats in the pot, and cook on medium heat for 10 minutes. Drain the limequats, and return the syrup to the pot. Simmer for five minutes to reduce the syrup.
Limequats are a low-calorie fruit that has several important health benefits when you add them to your diet. Some of the benefits include the following:
- Calcium: Limequats are filled with calcium, which helps to strengthen the bones and lowers the risk of osteoporosis.
- Citric Acid: Limequats contain citric acid, which helps to prevent kidney stones from forming.
- Potassium: This helps keep your heart in excellent shape by lowering your blood pressure.
- Vitamin C: Like limes and kumquats, limequats have an abundance of vitamin C, which helps keep your immune system working properly. This vitamin also encourages the production of collagen to make your skin firm. Limequats have more than 33% of your recommended daily intake of this vitamin.
