How to properly preserve watermelons with honey

Wash the watermelon thoroughly with a brush and soap. If you come across a specimen with dense pulp, then the peel can be cut off. If the fruit is overripe, then we use it together with the peel. Cut the whole watermelon into 4 parts. Usually, one quarter is enough for one three-liter jar. We cut it crosswise into slices.
