Steps:
- 1. In a large saucepan with a lid, place rinds, water, and salt. Boil, then reduce heat to low boil. Cook covered for 30 minutes.
- 2. Turn heat off. Let sit, covered, for an additional 30 minutes.
- 3. Drain. Fill pot with sugar, vinegar, spices, ginger, and lemon. Some like to add spices in a cheesecloth, I like to toss them in and dig them out later. I think I get a more evenly spiced watermelon. Allow to sit for one hour, covered on stove, no heat.
- 4. Bring to boil, then lower heat. Cook covered for 20 minutes. Strain, and reserve syrup, and return syrup to pot to low boil for 10 minutes.
- 5. Separate rinds from spices, lemon, and ginger. Take rinds and fill jars a little over half way.
- 6. About the last minute of low boiling syrup, add about 5 drops of red food coloring (optional).
- 7. Ladle syrup into jars, leaving about 1/2in gap from top.
- 8. Seal with two part lids and can using the water bath process.
