With the steady flow of published research on watermelon rind recently, the fruit is slowly working it's out of the traditional backyard BBQ trash bin, to becoming a leading health food.
With that being said, everybody in my family loves watermelon, which is indeed a treat on a hot summer day! I used to make pickles with leftover watermelon rind, or simply throw it away. Today I try pureeing it with my Vitamix 5200 machine and like the result very much.
The texture is more like applesauce. And I feel good, too, for conserving food and not wasting nutrients. (You can add honey or raw cane sugar if you like it to be sweet.)
