Melons Or Cucumbers As Mangoes Recipe

Pour over your melons or other vegetables boiling hot salt and water,

and dry them the next day; cut a piece out of the side; scrape away the

seed very clean; and fill them with scraped horseradish, garlic, and

mustard seed; then put in the piece, and tie it close. Pour boiling hot

vinegar over them, and in about three days boil up the vinegar with

cloves, pepper, and ginger: then throw in your mangoes, and boil them up

quick for a few minutes; put them in jars, which should be of stone, and

cover them close.



The melons ought to be small and the cucumbers large. Should they not

turn out green enough, the vinegar must be boiled again.
