1. In a large saucepan over high heat, bring water and pickling salt to a boil. Add watermelon rind and boil for 5 minutes until tender.
2. Strain in a colander. Keep watermelon rind pieces in the colander so any remaining saltwater will drain off.
3. In a medium saucepan, combine sugar, rice vinegar, black peppercorns, cloves, pickling spice, sliced ginger, and star anise. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Stir with a slotted spoon until sugar dissolves. Simmer for 15 minutes, until slightly reduced.
4. Place watermelon rinds in a large mason jar (or two smaller mason jars if that’s all you have). Pour liquid over rinds and let cool on countertop until liquid is at room temperature. (If you stick the hot jars in the refrigerator, the sugar in the liquid may crystalize.)
