INGREDIENTS

6 lb Cut up watermelon rind; (All green and pink removed meticulously) (approx. 26 lb. watermelon)
4 tb Salt
1 qt Cold water
9 c Beet sugar
3 c Cider vinegar
4 1/2 ts Whole allspice
1 1/2 ts Whole cloves
1 3-inch stick cinnamon

INSTRUCTIONS

SYRUP
Another recipe from the same Western Beet Sugar Producers, Inc. Which we
love.
Soak cut-up pieces of rind in salt-and-water solution in a bowl or crock 4
hours; drain. Place in kettle cover with warm water; cook on high heat
until tender to fork touch , about 20 minutes. Drain. Set aside. I usually
cut in 1 inch sticks or 1 inch squares.
SYRUP: In kettle, combine syrup ingredients (spices tied in dampened
double-thick cheese cloth) Here, I am sometimes inclined to use a Stainless
Steel tea caddy. Bring to a boil on high heat. Add drained, cooked rind.
Bring back to a boil, lower to medium heat. Cook until rind is transparent,
about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat. Take out spice
bag. Pack into hot sterilized jars; seal at once. I have been known to beg
the left over watermelon basket from my neighbors when they have had
company - I shall never live that one down.
