I’ve been trying to find a recipe like my Mom’s and this sounds about the closest one. But I have wonder about the cooking time being only 5 minutes?

I read this recipe in “Kitchen Riffs. It is almost the same. Besides the recipe says 1 cup of sugar for 1 kg watermelon.

How fun that you were able to meet fellow blogger friends! If you are ever in North Carolina, give me a ring! I do remember John’s recipe, and have wanted to make. Now I really need to make the recipe! Your recipe looks so delicious! Hugs, Terra

Oh I love pickled watermelon rind. I use to enjoy it as a kid when my Great Aunts made it, but I have yet to attempt it myself. Can’t wait to try out this recipe!

A great recipe from John’s wonderful blog! This is a great way to pickle watermelon rind and you certainly did it justice. Now I’m hungry for some pickled rind and I finished all of mine off a couple of weeks ago. Hope your thumb is o.k.

You’re so right about John taking a lot of care before he hits the ‘publish’ button. And my favorite part of his recipe is to read his note section. He writes in details and it has a lot of good information. I learned so much from his note section. Watermelon rind – I will have to remember or print out the recipe. I hate to see it goes waste knowing we can eat!! By the way, I love your first picture!!

I’ve always wondered about this since I read about it in a book on the life of pioneers and their subsistence living. I’ll definitely try it out next time we eat a watermelon, thanks!

Ooo how different…. I would never have thought to pickle the rind, what a great way to use up all the ‘wastage’. Looking forward to having a crack this summer. 🙂
