Watermelon recipes"},"content":{"rendered":"<h2>Do watermelons ripen when plucked?<\/h2>\n<p>Sometimes, due to the cold and rainy summer, gardeners have doubts: will the melons in the beds have time to ripen?<\/p>\n<p>Often, gardeners <strong>pick unripe fruits in the hope that they will lie down and ripen<\/strong> at home. This assumption is based on the fact that some vegetables (tomatoes, zucchini, melons) ripen during storage.<\/p>\n<p>However, the <strong>watermelon acquires sweetness and aroma only in the garden in the sun<\/strong>. Even for long-term storage, the fruits are laid when they are fully ripe.<\/p>\n<h3>Will the cut fruit ripen<\/h3>\n<p>Did the cut fruit turn out to be green? What to do to ripen the watermelon?<\/p>\n<p>The answer is nothing. <strong>The pulp will no longer turn red and sweet<\/strong>. But the situation can be corrected by putting the berry into action.<\/p>\n<h3>How to use unripe fruits<\/h3>\n<p><strong>It is impossible to eat an unripe berry without heat treatment<\/strong>. Jam and candied fruits are made from such a watermelon. Salty lovers also do not worry about where to attach an unsuccessfully chosen fruit. Here are some universal watermelon recipes for all occasions.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p><strong>It can be useful:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>How to understand that a watermelon has gone bad and what to do if it happened<\/p>\n<p>How to germinate watermelon seeds correctly<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<h4>Unripe watermelon jam<\/h4>\n<p><strong>For 400 g of pulp, you<\/strong> will need 0.5 cups of water, 800 g of sugar, one lemon.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Preparation<\/strong> :<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Wash the watermelon and lemon thoroughly.<\/li>\n<li>Peel and seed the berry, cut into pieces 2-3 cm in size.<\/li>\n<li>Put the workpiece in a saucepan, add a quarter glass of water and 250 g of sugar, cook over low heat, stirring occasionally, until the pieces soften (about 45 minutes).<\/li>\n<li>Meanwhile, peel the lemon and squeeze the juice out of it. Grate the zest on a fine grater.<\/li>\n<li>Prepare syrup from lemon juice, remaining water and 150 g of sugar.<\/li>\n<li>Pour the zest into a saucepan, pour in hot syrup, simmer for another 30-40 minutes. While doing this, gradually add the remaining sugar (400 g) until the syrup thickens.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><strong>For winter storage,<\/strong> such jam needs to be boiled not for 40 minutes, but for an hour or an hour and a half, and rolled up in sterilized jars.<\/p>\n<h4>Candied fruits<\/h4>\n<p><strong>Ingredients<\/strong>: one medium-sized watermelon, 0.5-0.8 liters of water, 100-150 g of sugar.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Preparation<\/strong> :<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Wash the fruit and cut into medium wedges.<\/li>\n<li>Peel the pieces of pulp and the white strip that is near the rind.<\/li>\n<li>Cut the crusts into slices.<\/li>\n<li>Prepare the syrup: pour a layer of sugar about 1 cm thick into the pan, moisten with water and melt, stirring constantly.<\/li>\n<li>Boil slices of watermelon rind in clean water for 15-20 minutes.<\/li>\n<li>After that, transfer the crusts to the syrup and simmer for 5-10 minutes.<\/li>\n<li>Remove, dry the candied fruit in the oven at 50 \u00b0 C, and boil it again in syrup for 5-10 minutes. Repeat the procedure two times.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><strong>After final drying, the<\/strong> candied fruit can be tasted.<\/p>\n<h4>Salted watermelon in a jar<\/h4>\n<p><strong>For 2 kg of berries, take<\/strong> 1 liter of water, 70 ml of 9% vinegar, 3 tbsp. l. sugar, 1.5 tbsp. l. salt.<\/p>\n<p>Bring the water to a boil, add sugar and salt, add vinegar, rinse the watermelon thoroughly, cut into small pieces. Place in a three-liter jar and cover with hot brine.<\/p>\n<p>Sterilize the jars under the lid for 20 minutes. Then roll up, wrap and leave in a warm place with the lid down. Place the cooled jars in a cellar or a cool pantry.<\/p>\n<h2>Watermelon pulp jam: a step by step recipe<\/h2>\n<p>We all know that unripe watermelon tastes not particularly sweet. To fix this, we will make a delicious jam out of it, which the whole family will enjoy.<\/p>\n<p>It will take about half an hour to cook, but on the same day you can enjoy homemade aromatic watermelon jam over a cup of tea.<\/p>\n<h3>Ingredients<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Watermelon pulp &#8211; 400 g;<\/li>\n<li>Water &#8211; 0.5-0.75 cups;<\/li>\n<li>Sugar &#8211; 800 g;<\/li>\n<li>Lemon &#8211; 1 pc.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Preparation<\/h3>\n<ol>\n<li>Wash the watermelon and lemon thoroughly with a food brush.<\/li>\n<li>We cut the washed berry into pieces, then peel them and peel them. It is very important that the pieces are small, no more than 2-3 cm in size.<\/li>\n<li>Transfer the slices to a saucepan and fill the watermelon pulp with water (about \u00bc cup).<\/li>\n<li>We put the unripe watermelon jam on a small fire, add 250 g of sugar to it and cook the fruits for about 45 minutes. Cooking time can fluctuate, it all depends on how quickly the pieces soften.<\/li>\n<li>While the watermelon pulp is boiling, let's get down to citrus. Peel the lemon and squeeze the juice out of it. We also use zest for making jam &#8211; rub it on a fine grater and add it to watermelons at the end of cooking.<\/li>\n<li>Prepare syrup from lemon juice, the remaining amount of water and 150 g of sugar in a separate container.<\/li>\n<li>Pour the crushed zest into a saucepan, pour everything with hot syrup and continue to cook the jam over low heat for 30-40 minutes. During the cooking process, gradually add the remaining half of the sugar (400 g) to the pan, waiting for the syrup to thicken.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>That's all &#8211; the unripe watermelon jam is ready. We give him a little rest and you can try.<\/p>\n<h3>Winter option<\/h3>\n<p>If you and your family will like a watermelon treat made with your own hands, then you can prepare it for the winter.<\/p>\n<p>You need to do everything the same as in the above recipe. The only difference is that before seaming, the jam will need to be boiled not for 40 minutes, but for an hour or even an hour and a half. After that, we pour it into pre-sterilized cans and roll it up<\/p>\n<h2>Recipe for making candied fruits from unripe watermelon<\/h2>\n<p>You can cook several dishes from one berry at once, for example, make jam from the pulp (as described in the recipe above), and delicious candied fruits from the peel. Therefore, if after cooking the jam from the watermelon pulp you still have melons and gourds, do not throw them away, but use them as the main ingredient for making candied fruits.<\/p>\n<p>It won't take much time to cook, but you will find a useful and sensible use of the unfit for eating watermelon.<\/p>\n<h3>Ingredients<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Watermelon &#8211; 1 pc. medium-sized;<\/li>\n<li>Water \u2248 0.5-0.8 l.

To do this, put the cooked crusts on a baking sheet and dry them at 50 \u00b0 C.<\/li>\n<li>After drying, we send the crusts from the unripe fruit to the cooking pot. Boil candied fruits for 5-10 minutes and dry again in the oven. We do this 2 times.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>After final drying, the watermelon rind is ready to eat. Taking a simple recipe for yourself, you will always know what to do with an unripe watermelon if one accidentally falls into your basket.<\/p>\n<p>Simple to prepare, candied fruits will disperse with a bang between those present at the table. They can be consumed as an addition to all kinds of drinks (tea, coffee, juices, etc.), and as constituents of various desserts, confectionery, etc.<\/p>\n<h2>Unsweetened watermelon and what you can do with it<\/h2>\n<p>The following <strong>watermelon recipe<\/strong> revives even the most unripe berry. Of course, it is also suitable for sweet fruit! But the latter is best eaten fresh. We also prepared a couple more interesting ideas for all occasions.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<p>Cut the watermelon into two halves. It doesn't matter for taste whether you do it along or across, especially if the berry is round. However, if it is elongated, it is always best to cut lengthwise.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Then make deep cuts, not reaching the end by about a couple of centimeters, and remove all the pulp with a spoon. Be sure to blot the bowl obtained from the crust with a napkin and set it aside to dry a little.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>During this time, beat the pulp with seeds with a blender or mash by hand in mashed potatoes. The seeds will not spoil the taste, but pulling them out takes too long. Pass the resulting <strong>watermelon puree<\/strong> through cheesecloth to get plenty of watermelon juice. The cake can be thrown away, and the juice pour into a saucepan and set to warm up. When the mixture is hot, add agar or gelatin. The amount of juice will depend on the size of the watermelon, so take it from the following calculation: for 500 ml of juice, 7 g of agar-agar, gelatin &#8211; 25 g.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Stir the juice over low heat until the gelling components dissolve. If the watermelon is not sweet at all, we recommend adding a couple of tablespoons of honey.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Chop the fruit into cubes. This can be pineapple, grapes, mango, kiwi and other fruits that are quite sweet and soft on their own.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/inform.com.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/post-291477-607d5e542b2bb.jpg\" data-rel=\"lightbox-image-bGlnaHRib3g=\" data-rl_title=\"\" data-rl_caption=\"\"  title=\"\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"SDStudio-light-box-enable SDStudio-editor-tools-md-imp\" src=\"https:\/\/inform.com.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/post-291477-607d5e542b2bb.jpg\" alt=\"What to do if you bought a non-sweet watermelon?

Interesting options. Watermelon recipes\" ><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Roll up the watermelon snack, turn the cans over, cover them with a blanket, and let cool.<\/p>\n<h4>Unusual drink<\/h4>\n<p>Everyone is accustomed to the fact that watermelon should be eaten without preliminary processing, simply by cutting it into slices and savoring the juicy, tender pulp. But few people know that a huge number of the most unexpected dishes can be prepared from this unusual berry. Some recipes don't even fit in my head. For example, the simplest version of a watermelon dish is a drink. It is not difficult to prepare it. For 4 servings you will need:<\/p>\n<p>120 grams of watermelon pulp, \u00bd lime stuff, a tablespoon of sugar, 60 ml of white rum, 4 mint leaves and some ice.<\/p>\n<p>Cooking is carried out in several stages:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Cut the lime into pieces and crush in a specially prepared container along with sugar and mint.<\/li>\n<li>Add watermelon and knead everything again.<\/li>\n<li>Pour the rum and throw the pieces of ice into the container.<\/li>\n<li>Mix the contents well and pour into glasses.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>No one will refuse such an exquisite drink, which in its composition resembles &#8220;Mojito&#8221;. But if the guests are suddenly caught not drinking, then rum can easily be replaced with &#8220;Sprite&#8221;.<\/p>\n<h4>Terms of use<\/h4>\n<p>Most importantly, watermelon is not a potent aphrodisiac, and therefore should not be taken immediately prior to sexual intercourse. Not only will the product not be able to properly affect the state of health during this time, but its strong diuretic properties will also be used. Constant urge to use the toilet will only negatively affect intercourse.<\/p>\n<p>To observe the positive effect, you need to consume watermelon regularly for a certain amount of time. In particular, it is necessary to eat ripe pulp during the melon season. Initially, the effect of exposure will be observed through cleansing the intestines, and vitamins will also accumulate.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/inform.com.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/c0179f89eef636d84a286db88b1f2d18-1.png\" data-rel=\"lightbox-image-bGlnaHRib3g=\" data-rl_title=\"\" data-rl_caption=\"\"  title=\"\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"SDStudio-light-box-enable SDStudio-editor-tools-md-imp\" src=\"https:\/\/inform.com.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/c0179f89eef636d84a286db88b1f2d18-1.png\" alt=\"What to do if you bought a non-sweet watermelon? Interesting options. Watermelon recipes\" ><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Unfortunately, the season of melons and gourds passes quickly enough, and it takes a long time to influence potency. Therefore, it is necessary to prepare a watermelon in order to be able to use it in the future. Various remedies can be prepared using the rind, pulp, or juice.<\/p>\n<h4>Unusual delicacy<\/h4>\n<p>It should be noted that jam is still the most common way of harvesting berries and fruits for future use. True, few people prepare watermelon jam. But in vain. It tastes as good as cherry or strawberry. There are two ways to prepare such a delicacy: from pulp or from watermelon peels. In the first case, the mixture is very tender and more homogeneous. To prepare it, you will definitely need:<\/p>\n<p>700 grams of ripe watermelon pulp, a kilogram of sugar, 10 grams of citric acid and vanilla sugar each.<\/p>\n<p>You need to cook such jam slowly:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Cut the watermelon pulp into pieces, put in a bowl, sprinkle with sugar and leave it in this state for a couple of hours. During this time, juice should stand out.<\/li>\n<li>Put the basin on fire, bring the mixture to a boil and boil it over medium heat for about 15 minutes. Then remove and leave to cool completely.<\/li>\n<li>Such actions must be repeated 3 times.<\/li>\n<li>The last time at the end of cooking, pour the remaining ingredients into the bowl and boil the mass for another 5 minutes.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Sources used and useful links on the topic: <a href=\"https:\/\/agronom.expert\/posadka\/ogorod\/tykvennye\/arbuz\/dozrevaet-li-v-sorvannom-vide.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\" class=\"external external_icon\">https:\/\/agronom.expert\/posadka\/ogorod\/tykvennye\/arbuz\/dozrevaet-li-v-sorvannom-vide.html<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/tvoi-povarenok.ru\/chto-delat-s-nespelym-arbuzom.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\" class=\"external external_icon\">https:\/\/tvoi-povarenok.ru\/chto-delat-s -nespelym-arbuzom.html<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/sovkusom.ru\/chto-delat-s-nesladkim-arbuzom\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\" class=\"external external_icon\">https:\/\/sovkusom.ru\/chto-delat-s-nesladkim-arbuzom\/<\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/rsute.ru\/814631-kakie-blyuda-mozhno-prigotovit-iz-nesladkogo-arbuza.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\" class=\"external external_icon\">http:\/\/rsute.ru\/814631-kakie-blyuda-mozhno-prigotovit-iz-nesladkogo-arbuza.html<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gotovim.ru\/subject\/ovoshy\/arbuz.shtml\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\" class=\"external external_icon\">https: \/\/www.gotovim.ru\/subject\/ovoshy\/arbuz.shtml<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.iamcook.ru\/ingredients\/watermelon\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\" class=\"external external_icon\">https:\/\/www.iamcook.ru\/ingredients\/watermelon<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/lifehacker.ru\/10-arbuznyx-blyud\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\" class=\"external external_icon\">https:\/\/Lifehacker.ru\/10-arbuznyx-blyud\/<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/profter.ru\/napitki\/chto-mozhno-prigotovit-iz-arbuza.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\" class=\"external external_icon\">https:\/\/profter.ru \/napitki\/chto-mozhno-prigotovit-iz-arbuza.html<\/a><\/p>\n<div id=\"PostUnique_PostSource\" style=\"padding-top: 50px\">Post source:  <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\" href=\"\/\/lastici.ru\" class=\"external external_icon\">lastici.ru<\/a><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What to do with unsweetened watermelon so that it turns into a refreshing summer dessert: recipe and a few more ideas for serving unsweetened watermelon.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":370988,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","_wp_rev_ctl_limit":""},"categories":[295,318,174],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-317245","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-food","category-for-women","category-health"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/inform.com.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/317245","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/inform.com.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/inform.com.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/inform.com.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/inform.com.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=317245"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/inform.com.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/317245\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/inform.com.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/370988"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/inform.com.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=317245"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/inform.com.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=317245"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/inform.com.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=317245"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
