Pomegranate.... Simple Pleasures...

 
Pomegranate seeds are a fall favorite for sure.  I'll eat the seeds from one half and save the seeds from the other half to sprinkle on salads.

    I love it, but I've never mastered the art of removing the seeds. When we lived in California our neighbor had a pomegranate tree that hung over our backyard and the kids would sit around the pool and make a huge mess pulling them apart. Great photo.

    You make every thing sound and look so delicious, Susan. Pomegranates look beautiful in the store but I have not tried one.

    Hugs,

    I see them in the store but I don't know what to do with them . So, you just crack them open and eat the seeds?

    I love their place in Greek mythology! I love the way they sit inside the skin of the fruit! I love their health benefits! I love their color! I love them on salads or in salsas, but I don't love them juiced. The POM juice is too strong and concentrated for my palate!

    What I like about eating them is you have to do it slow, and take your time. Not like a banana I can wolf down on my way out the door. :) Have a nice weekend.

    You took me back years with this post...my maiden aunt first introduced me to pomegranates way back. Back then we used to eat them with a needle. It took hours painstaking picking out each seed but so rewarding with each jewel. A lot of work but all worth the effort.
    Nowadays we know all that's needed is to cut the pomegranate in half and whack the skin with a wooden rolling pin to remove the seeds....somehow that doesn't seem so much fun but then I suppose it depends what kind of a day you've had and how much pent up energy you might want to get rid of ;D
