I got these at Whole Foods in early December. I usually only see them in grocery stores for a few weeks in December and January… maybe try a specialty foods store?

Excellent! I’m curious about the blending, though the little bursts of pomegranate are what I really love about the salsa. Glad you enjoyed it!

I bought all the other ingredients today, and made the salsa. It is fantastic! We had it with whole grain chips, and the Mr. and I put some in our burritos. He wants me to blend the pomegranate next time…not sure how that would turn out. I love it as is, and can’t wait to have the need to make it for a pot luck. Thank you!!

O.M.G. Jealous! Yes, with that many pomegranates, it really seems like you’re required. Hope you got some parsley and cilantro in your box!

Kristi, I live in So. Cal. Don’t hate me, I just got back from picking up this weeks CSA, and there were 4 medium sized pomegranates in the box. Now I MUST try the salsa recipe!

LUCKY! What I wouldn’t give to have two pomegranates a week… you must live in balmier climes than I! I’ve heard the water submersion technique, and I tried it once but didn’t have a huge amount of success.

Lately, my CSA box has been arriving with at least two pomegranates each week. I have found a relatively fast and easy way to separate the seeds from the rind. Cut off the top and bottom, just enough to reveal the seeds. Take a bowl of water and submerge the fruit in the bowl and begin to gently pull the fruit apart. The seeds are easy to dislodge and they will fall to the bottom of the bowl, and the membrane will float to the top. It eliminates the random squirting of juice, and your fingers won’t be quite as stained.
