INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Their intense flavor makes kumquat a good pairing for bitter or peppery greens, such as endive or arugula. Slice into thin rounds with a sharp knife. Remove the seeds, then layer the slices on top of the salad to show off the color. . Kumquat marmalade is much sweeter and less bitter than regular marmalade. The recipe is similar to most marmalades or jams. Since the kumquat seeds contain pectin, you can boil them along with the fruit to thicken your preserves. Keep the seeds in a cheesecloth bag while boiling, so they don't end up in your jar. . Pickling takes at least three days, but the result is quite unique. This particular recipe keeps some of the kumquat's sweet flavor. The acidic kumquat adds a nice flavor to lamb and poultry dishes. Add it 30 minutes before the meat is done braising or simmering. Seafood pairs especially well with kumquat, but it doesn't need to marinate in it. Add the fruit at the last minute instead, either as a garnish or blended in a vinaigrette. . Wash plenty of kumquats and cut them in half — at least 10 fruits per cup (240mL) of vodka. Cover with vodka and let sit in a cool, dark place, shaking once a day. It should pick up a faint taste after a couple of days, a strong taste after a week or two, and steadily continue to infuse for many weeks or months. If you enjoy sweet liquor, add some sugar as well, up to ¼ cup (25g) sugar per cup (240mL) of vodka. In the United States, the first appearance of kumquats coincides with Thanksgiving preparations. Take advantage of this to add pizazz to your holiday cranberry sauce, or use the same basic approach to make chutneys and desserts:  Slice 1½ cups (360mL) kumquats. Discard the seeds and stem. Simmer in a covered saucepan with ¼ cup (60mL) water, until the kumquats soften.  Add one of the following:  A can of cranberry sauce  Or dried cherries, grated ginger, black pepper, and cinnamon   Or ¾ to 1 cup (150–200g) sugar to make candied kumquats    Simmer uncovered for 10–15 minutes, until chutneys become a little translucent. Add more water whenever the pan starts to look dry. Cut large kumquats in half horizontally. Scoop out the sour, juicy flesh with a narrow teaspoon or grapefruit spoon, and add it to smoothies, fruit salad or ice cream. Freeze the hollow rinds in airtight containers, then use the rinds to hold sorbet or other desserts. Alternatively, leave the flesh in the cut kumquats. Dip the ends in a beaten mix of egg white and honey, then in a mixture of raw sugar and cinnamon. Freeze and eat as a fancy dessert.

SUMMARY: Slice and add to salads. Make kumquat marmalade Pickle the kumquats Add the kumquat to meat dishes. Infuse vodka with kumquat flavor Stew kumquats. Freeze the rinds into cups. Finished.


INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Kidney stones are small bits of calcified minerals and salts that form in your kidneys. Some kidney stones stay in your kidney, and some detach and pass in your urine. While passing the stones can be painful, they usually don't cause lasting damage. You might pass small stones without realizing it. Or, you may have difficulty passing larger ones. You'll probably feel severe pain in your sides and back, below your ribs, near your groin and lower abdomen. Since kidney stones are moving, the pain can come in waves and vary in intensity. You may have some of these symptoms as well:  Pain when urinating Pink, red or brown urine that's cloudy or smelly Nausea and vomiting Constant urge to urinate and urinating more frequently (although small amounts) Fever and chills (if you also have an infection) Struggling to find a comfortable position (i.e. sitting, then standing, then lying down) Men are more likely than women to develop kidney stones and non-Hispanic white people tend to develop kidney stones more frequently. Being overweight, obese, dehydrated, or eating a diet high in sugar, sodium, and protein can also increase your risk. You're more likely to develop kidney stones if you've already had them or someone in your family has had them. Your doctor will perform a physical and test your blood and urine. The doctor is checking for calcium, uric acid, or minerals which could could cause stones to form. You may also get imaging done (like x-rays, CT scans, or ultrasounds). This way, the doctor can visualize if there are kidney stones. Your doctor may want you to collect the kidney stone after you pass it. This way, the stone can be analyzed and the doctor can determine what's causing your kidney stones, especially if you frequently pass them. If you have small stones, you should be able to pass them at home by drinking plenty of water, taking over-the-counter pain medications, and possibly by taking prescription medication to help muscles in your urinary tract relax.  If you have larger stones or stones that are damaging your urinary tract, a urologist may use shock waves to break up the stones or will surgically remove them.  If over-the-counter medications are not enough, your doctor might prescribe you some other medication for the pain.

SUMMARY: Recognize what kidney stones (nephrolithiasis) are. Watch for symptoms of kidney stones. Consider your risk factors. Get a medical diagnosis. Follow treatment recommendations.


INPUT ARTICLE: Article: You'll want to beat them for about 4 minutes, or until stiff peaks form.  It's important to switch from using the mixer to using a rubber spatula because you want to ensure that the air you whipped into the mixed thus far doesn't get beaten out at this point. Since the coconut has rough edges and it's heavier than the egg whites, beating it into the mixture will collapse the stiff peaks you've formed. Instead, gently folding it in with a spatula ensures that the mixture doesn't deflate quickly.

SUMMARY: Beat the egg whites with an electric mixer in a medium mixing bowl. Beat in the almond extract, sugar and salt. Fold in the coconut using a rubber spatula.
