Pomegranates

Here’s the first part of our pomegranate harvest–the fruit that was easy to reach.

I’ve used 17 so far, mainly juicing them for a couple recipes.  (Cake=nasty, frozen yogurt=good)  There are so many more to use up!  We’ll hold off on harvesting the rest that you can see here until my parents come out next month…

I actually didn’t even know what a pomegranate looked like until we moved, so I did some research online this weekend, searching for good recipes.  Anyone have any to share?

    Could you sell them on craigslist? Also, they dry nicely and make a beautiful centerpiece (arrange several in a wooden bowl).

    I LOVE pomegranates! They are very good just by themselves or in salad

    I agree, that’s awesome that you have them in your yard. I’ve only ever had the seeds on there own before.

    Crazy times. I thought they only grew in Biblical places 🙂 i.e. not in the Midwest 🙂 You all are about to be super-full of antioxidants!!

  7. YUM! My auntie used to have them in her backyard and I have many happy memories of eating them! They are a wonderful antioxidant…are there too many to just eat? I have seen them in salads, granita, and my auntie used them for jam.
