Highlights

  • How to extract seeds from a pomegranate without a mess.
  • Plus, perfect Fall salad with pomegranate.

Pomegranates are one of the supreme pleasures of the season. Their garnet like seeds are sweet, tart and juicy. They're also blood red and opening a whole pomegranate the wrong way can make your kitchen look like Janet Leigh's shower - afterwards.

 

If sweet, tart and juicy are not enough for you - how about antioxidant and vitamin bennies? It's all here in one slightly challenging package.

 

Here's a foolproof method for opening a pomegranate wtihout looking like a bloody mess when you're through.

 

See this article on Fall Apples that includes an APPLE-POMEGRANATE salad.

    Very cool... I used to use a needle and pick one out at a time and east them. To the question below, you east them, if you spat them out it would be a waste of time. Might as well just collect the juice. Reply...

      Nope. Just drain away the water and store them in a container in the fridge, perfect snack and terrific on salads. Reply...
