Method

1

Cut the watermelon rinds into small cubes, leaving the outer skin on.

2

Boil in boiling water until tender.

3

Then drop them into hot simple syrup (1.5 kg of sugar per 4 cups of water) and let sit for 8–10 hours.

4

Next, boil for 10 minutes, let steep again, and boil once more. Repeat this process until the rinds become translucent.

5

At the end, add the citric acid and vanillin.

6

Drain the rinds in a sieve, let the syrup drip off, and then roll them in granulated sugar. You can dry the candied rinds slightly in a low-heat oven.
