2 cups water
1 cup vinegar
12" stick cinnamon, broken
2 ts whole cloves
5 lbs fruit, washed, seeded and peeled
(peaches, pears, pineapple, melon, papaya, citrus, kumquats)
-In a large Dutch oven combine sugar, water, vinegar, cinnamon and cloves.
-Heat until boiling, reduce heat.
-Add fruit to syrup and...
(oops! okay, that's all we have of that recipe. Still, Grammy knew how to pickle, so I bet if we follow the instructions for pickled watermelon rind, we'll have good results)
