Zubereitung von Watermelon Marmalade
- Trim the green skin and pink pulp from approximately 6 cups of thick watermelon rind.
- Chop the rind into 1/2-inch pieces.
- Place the chopped rind in a large preserving kettle and cover with enough cold water to fully submerge. Let it soak for 18 hours.
- After soaking, add the remaining ingredients to the kettle (see ingredient list for quantities).
- Bring the mixture to a gentle boil over low heat, stirring frequently to prevent sticking. Continue to cook, stirring regularly, until the marmalade reaches 220-222°F (104-106°C) on a candy thermometer, or until a small spoonful dropped onto a chilled plate wrinkles and sets (the sheet test). This will take approximately 1.5 to 2 hours, depending on your stove and the amount of rind.
- Carefully ladle the hot marmalade into sterilized half-pint jars, leaving 1/4-inch headspace. Wipe the rims clean, seal the jars, and process in a boiling water bath for 10 minutes (adjust processing time based on your altitude – consult a canning guide for more information).
- Let the jars cool completely. You should hear a satisfying 'pop' as the jars seal. Check to make sure all jars have sealed before storing in a cool, dark place.
