And the pre-peeled containers for 4x the price are a ripoff

  • cut off the top and bottom
  • on the bottom, look for the pith lines, usually 5 of them. Cut down from there all the way to the bottom, so that you have 5 slices. If you’re a pro you can not cut all the way to the bottom and simply starfish it.
  • Take a slice and a wooden spoon. Beat the ever living daylights out of the back of the slice, the delicious rubies will go flying everywhere…hopefully into the bowl you put underneath where you’re thwacking. Or, if you don’t have an anger management disorder, just tap the backs gently, ymmv.

    I saw a friend do this and I was so impressed. Although she didn’t beat the slices.

    Tangentially, the bowl of pomegranate seeds was for snacking on during a movie. I found it hilarious because it felt like it was middle class popcorn (I grew up super poor, and pomegranate was one of the many foods I didn’t try until university)

    This is the answer, folks. I learned from an old 3 star michelin star chef, and chefs all have anger issues.

      Not all chefs. Some cover their anger issues with drug addiction.

    There’s an interpretation that she did it in purpose to get away from her controlling mother. Kinda like that version.

  Pomegranate the easy way

  • wabasso@lemmy.ca ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

    I mean I want there to be an easier way than “peel underwater” but every time I see a life hack that just rehashes that method, I’m glad to know I haven’t been wasting my time.

    • pelespirit@sh.itjust.works ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

      I find this method easier and no water involved. To each their own though. www.youtube.com/watch?v=9U4X9uh-sZ4

      My pomegranate method is to cut the peel into quarters along the ~4 corners, and then I just bite into it and be okay with eating a lil bit of waxy stuff

    This is solid. Basically, peel them in a bowl and submerged in water

• the_q@lemmy.zip ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

  Crack them and then do the deseeding under water.

  are pomegranates that unhealthy?

  source

  • TheTechnician27@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

    No, pomegranates are actually very healthy. They’re rich in polyphenols (a class of antioxidant), fiber, and a variety of micronutrients, and they have a low glycemic index.

  Full agreement. If they were of similar difficulty to an orange I’d be fucked

    That’s exactly how I would feel if someone had my trapped and told me they would stick pomegranates up my rear end.

    !No! No pomegranates!
