Watermelon Rind Kimchi

Watermelon Rind Kimchi
  1. Prepare the watermelon by cutting away all the green outer skin. Next up, cut away the watermelon flesh and save for another use. It’s ok if you leave a fine layer of flesh on the rind. Cut the rind into 1½ cm square chunks. Place prepared rind into a bowl and add salt. Mix to coat and leave for 1 hour, giving them a toss at the half way mark.
  2. After this time, your rinds will have released a lot of liquid. Drain the juice and rinse the rinds a couple of times with cold, running water. Squeeze out all the excess water. Add rinds to a mixing bowl, along with the rest of the ingredients. With gloved hands, mix until everything is well combined. You can gently massage the rinds with the seasonings to ensure that they are well coated.

Serve this kimchi immediately, or store in a sterilised glass jar in the fridge to enjoy the next day when the rinds have had a chance to develop more flavour. This kimchi is best eaten within a couple of days.
