How to make soft candy from watermelon rind

1. When you make soft candy with watermelon rind at home, you need to prepare fresh watermelon rind and a certain amount of white sugar. Cut off the dark green outer layer of the prepared watermelon rind, and also cut off the red part that is connected to the flesh, leaving only the light green rind in the middle. Then cut the processed watermelon rind into slices with a length of about five or six centimeters.

2. Put the cut watermelon rind in a clean large bowl and add the prepared sugar. Normally, 300 grams of sugar should be added to 500 grams of watermelon rind. Use clean chopsticks to mix evenly so that each piece of watermelon rind is coated with sugar. Then cover with plastic wrap and marinate in the refrigerator for one hour.

3. After pickling, take out the watermelon rind. You will find that all the sugar in it has been replaced, and part of the water in the watermelon rind has also been pickled out. Pour the watermelon rind and the dissolved water directly into the pot, boil it over high heat, then turn the heat to medium and simmer slowly. After the water in the pot is basically boiled dry, turn down the heat again.

4. Continue to stir-fry the watermelon rind in the pan over low heat until white frosting appears on the surface of the watermelon rind. When it is done, take it out and let it cool. You will get the finished watermelon rind candy. It can be eaten directly or stored in a low temperature environment. You can take it out and eat it anytime when needed. It tastes sweet and delicious.
