Ditto! I candied some kumquats today for a future dinner that will
feature (rare) duck breast.

Hubby has gone into high gear about controlling his diabetes via diet
and I hate being bored cooking - so I have the same attitude as you
do. I finally roasted sunchokes and served them with grilled steak
and sautéed spinach. Oh, man they were delicious! Hubby told me the
following day that cold, they tasted even more similar to artichokes
than they did hot.
