  • Total Time: 9 Minutes

Ingredients

Pomegranate

Instructions

Fill a bowl with water, large enough to submerge the pomegranate in it.

Take a kitchen knife, score the top where the blossom was and peel off the top.

Scratch down the shell on the outside of the pomegranate, where the white skin inside divides the pomegranate forms chambers.

Carefully break the pomegranate apart by hand under water along the incisions.

Work the pieces under water with your fingers to remove the seeds. You can easily separate the white skin from the seeds, it floats to the top and can be skimmed of.

The delicious pomegranate seeds are all collected at the bottom of the bowl. Once finished, you can pour off the water and have the pomegranate seeds.

Notes

The pomegranate seeds can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week.
