I got a load of kumquats from a friend last weekend and found this on Epicurious Candied Kumquat and Ricotta Tart Recipe at Epicurious.com
You slice the kumquats thinely and "candy" them (boil gently in sugar water) and us them to top a tart shell filled with Ricotta, Sour Cream and toasted Fennel seeds. Slicing the kumquats took a 1/2 hour but the combination of flavors was wonderful! The fennel really compliments the acid-sweet fruits and the cool filling is refreshing. And it's pretty too.
