How to Eat a Pomegranate Fruit
Many learn about the great health benefits pomegranate provide and rush to the supermarket to buy the fruit… but once you are home you ask yourself “Hmm, how do I eat the pomegranate?”
Don’t worry, it happened to me, too! The pomegranate fruit looks strange at first, but once you learn the proper way of how to eat pomegranate it’s a no-brainer.
Our friends at Wikipedia have summed it up nicely: After opening the pomegranate by scoring it with a knife and breaking it open, the arils (seed casings) are separated from the skin (peel) and internal white supporting structures (pith and carpellary membrane). Separating the red arils can be simplified by performing this task in a bowl of water, whereby the arils will sink and the white structures will float to the top. The entire seed is consumed raw, though the fleshy outer portion of the seed is the part that is desired. The taste differs depending on the variety of pomegranate and its ripeness. It can be very sweet or it can be very sour or tangy, but most fruits lie somewhere in between, which is the characteristic taste, laced with notes of its tannin.
