How to Seed a Pomegranate

Ingredients

Pomegranate

Directions

Put on a dark colored apron.

Fill a large bowl with cool or room temperature water and set aside.

Place the pomegranate on a cutting board and carefully make a slice from the top to the bottom. Separate the pomegranate into two halves.

Submerge one half in reserved bowl of water and gently push the seeds off the membrane. Break apart the pomegranate further to access more seeds, but do it under water. Repeat with other half.

The seeds will sink to the bottom of the bowl and pieces of the white membrane will float to the top. Just skim those off and discard. Drain the seeds and pat dry a little before storing in a container in the refrigerator.
