Remove the seeds and prick the pieces with a fork.
In a container, add 2 liters of water and 2 tsp of limestone powder. Stir well.
Soak the petha pieces in the limestone water and set aside for 10 to 12 hours.
Rinse under running water until limestone is removed.
Boil the pethas in enough water on a high flame until they are transparent.
