3 steps to easily remove pomegranate seeds

Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Features, How To, Fruit,

If you've ever eaten a pomegranate, you've likely encountered the frustrating task of removing the seeds--but there's a better way. Rather than fighting a spoon (or your fingers) through the various nooks and crannies, splattering yourself with pomegranate juice stains in the process, try this much easier, faster approach to deseed a pomegranate:

1. Cut off the ends of the pomegranate, creating two flat surfaces on the ends.
2. Cut the pomegranate in half, and twist each half a bit to loosen the delicious seeds that are held within
3. Grab something sturdy like a wooden spoon, and hit the flat part of the pomegranate half that you created in the first step. The seeds should easily fall out, so make sure you have a bowl or container underneath the pomegranate that you're hitting
4. Enjoy!

Give it a try, and let us know how it works out for you in the comments! If you want more a more detailed tutorial full of pictures, head on over to Instructables.
