Chunks of peeled watermelon rind are pickled with white vinegar, pure cane sugar, water, lemon, cinnamon, and cloves - resulting in a complex tart and refreshing treat! While the recipe originates from the South and parts of the Midwest this condiment is surprisingly versatile and plays well with Chef Arrington's California progressive flavors.
We've found Coldwater Canyon's Pickled Watermelon Rind as a great addition to seasonal salads such including a late-fall panzanella with tangy feta cheese, peppers, and zesty olive ciabatta croutons; as an accompaniment to housemade rabbit rillettes with whole grain mustard; or wrapped in bacon and crisped until brown. Alternatively, it's a staple for behind the bar using the zesty liquid in cocktails and spritzers.
