Fellow pomegranate lovers — read, watch, and listen closely …
I love pomegranates from their regal crowns at their bases and how the leathery red orbs look like holiday ornaments on their green tree branches, to how cream colored pith engulfs each seed that’s further cradled within jeweled juicy sacs.
Until recently, their sweet-sour winey taste and delightful crunch have been hard won. De-seeding always took a good fifteen minutes and both my kitchen and me would emerge speckled over with the bright red juice, looking like we’d been in a bloodbath had taken place.
No longer!
Joy, oh, joy!Yes, fellow pomegranate fans — no longer!!!

Not of course— they don’t grow everywhere. Did you know that they’re originally from Iran?

What a fabulous shortcut! Thank you. I have a question: do you eat the seed and pulp, or just suck off the pulp? I grew up sucking off the pulp and tossing the seeds, but now I eat the whole thing. What’s correct? Thanks!

glad you enjoyed it – I like to chew up the whole thing (except for peel & pith) – pomegranate oil from seeds is wonderful for us, inside & out 🙂
