Seeding A Pomegranate - Step By Step

1. 1

   Fill a medium-large bowl 2/3 full with water.

2. 2

   With a sharp knife, cut the crown off the pomegranate. It's the tufted end. This will expose the inner sections of the fruit.

3. 3

   Score through the skin of the fruit but leave the skin intact.

4. 4

   Submerge the pomegranate in the bowl of water and gently pry it open into sections.

5. 5

   Still working under water, remove the internal white membranes and gently pull out the seeds.

6. 6

   The seeds will sink to the bottom of the bowl and the membrane will float to the surface.

7. 7

   Discard the outer pieces of skin and white membrane, leaving only the seeds behind.

8. 8

   Lift the seeds out of the water and transfer them to a paper towel to dry.

9. 9

   The seeds can be refrigerated for up to 3 days.
