DealDash Deseeds Pomegranates
Pomegranates are delicious and versatile, but a huge pain to get the seeds from. Here is how DealDash deseeds pomegranates.
If you’re a faithful DealDash Reviewed reader, then you might remember the pomegranate salsa recipe from last week. If you missed it, you can check it out at this link right here. However, as delicious as pomegranates are, they are very difficult and time-consuming to deseed. Luckily, there are two simple ways that you can get those yummy pomegranate seeds out from the fruit. Read on for more details.
Method One – Tapping
The first method is a little bit messier than the second, but they are both viable ways to get those seeds out of the pomegranate. The first thing that you want to do is take the pomegranate and gently but firmly roll it around on a hard surface like your table or kitchen countertop. This helps separate the seeds from the membrane.
Next, cut all the way around the stem, taking special care to only cut through the skin of the pomegranate and not the seeds. This can be a little difficult to do your first few times, but you’ll get the hang of it. After you cut all the way around then pull the top off.
Finally, make slices through the skin every few inches around the opening that you cut. Turn the pomegranate upside-down over a bowl, and whack with a wooden spoon. The little seeds will just pop right down into the bowl with very little mess.
Method 2 – Underwater
The second method that we are going to explore today is practically mess-free and very simple as well. You will start out the same way as above, cutting around the stem and pulling off the top.
Next, make four cuts around the perimeter of the fruit.
Finally, stick the pomegranate underwater in a large bowl. Pull the pomegranate apart in four sections.
After you’ve pulled the fruit apart the little seeds should start coming out with just a little poking with your fingers. All of the mess stays in the bowl. Easy!
Pomegranate seeds are perfect for sprinkling on salads or using in recipes. Once you have the basics down of how to get the seeds out with ease, then you can incorporate pomegranates into more of your meals.
