- In August of last year, I decided to can Watermelon Rind Pickles for the first time
- The flavor of these watermelon rind pickles is similar to that of an apple or a pear
- A cross between the two. Watermelon Rind Pickles
- Have a texture that is very tender and soft, but not mushy
- They have a natural sweetness....almost like applesauce
- I'm not sure if all watermelon pickles taste this way
- But this recipe made a very sweet, delicious "pickle"
- Would I make this recipe again? Most definitely:)
- 5 pounds watermelon rind

- 1/3 cup pickling salt

- 1 1/2 cups white vinegar
