How to make homemade pickled watermelon

1. About a month before pickling watermelon, you need to cook the soybeans and ferment them. The specific fermentation method is to cover the surface of the soybeans with flour after cooking, then let them grow white hairs at high temperature, and then put them in the sun.

2. Remove the old outer skin of the prepared watermelon, then take out the pulp, put the watermelon peel in a food processor to make it into a soup, then mash the pulp, and finally wash the ginger and cut it into ginger powder for later use.

3. Take a pickled vegetable jar, put a layer of beans in it, then a layer of watermelon puree, then a layer of minced ginger, sprinkle a small amount of peppercorns, and then a layer of salt. Repeat this process until all the ingredients are added. Then use a larger tool to mix all the ingredients evenly, seal it and put it in a warm place to ferment. After about 45 days, the watermelon you pickled yourself will be ready, and you can smell the faint watermelon aroma. Now you can take it out and eat it.
