Title: Another Cantaloupe Pickle
Categories: Loo Fruit Pickle Preserve
Yield: 1 Batch

4	lg	Cantaloupes, peeled, seeded, quartered
		Vinegar to cover
9	lb	Brown sugar
		Cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves to taste

Another cantaloupe pickle (adapted from a less interesting but perhaps more adaptable Tyree recipe)

Cover cantaloupe pieces in vinegar. Let stand 24 hr. Measure the vinegar - keep all but 1 quart of it (I estimate there will be 3 qt left).

Boil vinegar, with 3 lb sugar per quart of vinegar, and spices to taste. When it has boiled to a syrup, drop fruit in it and cook 30 - 40 min over low heat.
