Take nutmeg melons when about the size of a large coffee cup, or cucumbers just before they commence to turn yellow; soak in brine for a few days, then rinse off in clear water, and scald in weak vinegar, and let stand in it for a week; then cue open at one side, take out the seeds and fill wit^ the follow- ing: A small head of cabbage chopped fine, one pint or pound of white mustard seed; two ounces of celery seed; one ounce each of cloves, turmeric, and black pepper; two ounces each of ginger, ground, and cinnamon; five tablespoonfuls of olive oil, and half a head of garlic. After filling the man- goes, tie up, place in a stone jar, and pour over enough of cider vinegar to cover them. If the mangoes are liked a little sweet, a pound or more of sugar may be added to the vinegar. The above filling will be enough for about three dozen melons.
