Shake the jar back and forth every once in a while so that the kumquats are always covered in salt so that they don't spoil, or alternatively, put them in upside down for a few days and then again for a few days. Salted kumquats are very effective for sore throats and coughs caused by colds! When drinking, use clean chopsticks or forks to take them, and just soak one or two at a time in hot water.
