AWESOME. . .love this stuff. I buy the pomegranate seeds ready to go at Trader Joe's, but if you don't have the luxury of a TJ's nearby, here is a great tip for peeling pomegranate - score the skin of the fruit and submerge in a bowl of cool water, peel underwater - the seeds will fall to the bottom, the peel and that papery membrane stuff will float to the top and can be skimmed off. Note that cooking time is marinating time. Found on Let's Eat. Ingredients:
3 pears, cored and cut into wedges |
1 pomegranate, seeds only |
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice |
2 tablespoons light brown sugar |
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg |
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon |
2 tablespoons finely chopped almonds |
4 sprigs fresh mint leaves (to garnish) |
Directions:
1. Place the sliced pears and pomegranate seeds into a bowl. Toss with lemon juice to coat.
2. Combine the brown sugar, nutmeg, and cinnamon in a small cup or bowl, then mix into the fruit.
3. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving to blend the flavors. Serve in individual dishes, and garnish with a sprinkling of chopped almonds and a sprig of mint.
