The squeegee simply put, it is pumpkin jam. It is of typical local origin from Southern Bulgaria. It is also known as honeydew or putty. Rachel was also prepared by our grandmothers, but nowadays this delicious sweet temptation is a bit forgotten.

To prepare a squeegee at home, we need pumpkin, lime solution, sugar syrup, citric acid, indrishe.

Take a well-ripened pumpkin, peel it and cut it into small pieces.

The pumpkin pieces are dipped in a lime solution, which is made by mixing five liters of water and 150 grams of slaked lime. The solution is stirred and then allowed to stand to allow lime to settle.

The clear part of the solution is filtered and the pumpkin pieces are soaked in it

The lime solution should cover the pumpkin and so it should stand for at least two hours. In this way the pumpkin is tightened and will not crack.

Then sugar syrup is prepared from one liter of water and two kilograms of sugar.

The pumpkin pieces are washed very well and then placed to boil in the sugar syrup. The jam is boiled until the syrup thickens.

Shortly before removing from the heat, add a little citric acid and a few fragrant indrishe leaves.

While still warm, distribute in dry and clean jars. Close the jars tightly and turn them upside down.
