Yum! Pomegranates have arrived at my grocery store! I love them, but I decided that this year I was going to get some ideas for what I could use them in (rather than just eating them by themselves). I also wanted to know if there was an easier way to get those delicious seeds out.
3 Step – No Mess – This section explains how to get those luscious seeds out without making a mess, or spending forever smacking the pomegranate. It is as easy as 1-2-3! You’ll find images of the three steps with easy to understand directions.
Recipes – I could just eat the seeds by themselves and be perfectly content, but this year I wanted to stretch a little and add them into my recipes. The first thing this section does is answer the question – do you eat the whole seed? Well, it’s a matter of preference, but you’ll get more fiber by eating the crunchy seed. You’ll also find recipes for appetizers, salads & soups, main courses, preserves, dips & sauces, desserts, and beverages. My favorite recipe was for pomegranate syrup – you can use it on ice cream, in drinks, or in sauces! It’s fabulous.
News & Information – Here you can find the latest news on pomegranates, as well as delectable information about the fruit. I recommend checking out the Pomegranate Particulars section you’ll learn a ton of interesting things about the yummy fruit!
I hope that this site will make picking up a pomegranate less intimidating, now that you’ll know how to get the delicious seeds out and have recipes to use them in!
