How-To Cut and Deseed a Pomegranate
The foolproof way to cut and deseed a pomegranate without a huge mess! It'll only take about ten minutes, and you won't ever have to worryabout losing any of those precious seeds again!
Equipment
- 1 Sharp Knife
- 1 Large Bowl
- 1 Cutting Board
Ingredients
- 1 Pomegranate, fresh
Instructions
- Using a sharp knife and cutting board, place the pomegranate on its side, and remove the stem end. You’ll only have to cut off about ¼ to ½ an inch.
- Using the same knife, remove the crown by making a thin slice right underneath where the crown sits.
- Now that you have your pomegranate sitting upright on the flat stem end take a minute to notice how removing the crown revealed different segments of clustered seeds, separated by the membrane of the pomegranate.
- While hovering over a bowl, carefully tear apart each outlined segment on the pomegranate.
- Slowly pick apart the large clusters of seeds, and you’ll be pleased as punch to see how EASY they will fall right on out into your bowl
