Wash! Take center out of rinds; leave white in. Cut in strips or pieces. Cover with water (cold), bring to a boil and let boil a few minutes. Drain. Do this 3 times in all. Then weigh rinds, use as much sugar as rinds and just barely cover with water. Boil again and continue boiling until water or syrup is about all gone. Place on wax paper to cool. Then roll in granulated sugar and let dry.
