How to Make Pomegranate Jelly And Cream Cheese Sandwiches
- Prepare garnish: Rinse and set aside 1 tablespoon of pomegranate arils per sandwich.
- Score 1 fresh pomegranate (approximately 1 cup arils) and submerge in a bowl of water.
- Gently break open the pomegranate underwater to release the arils. The arils will sink, and the membrane will float.
- Skim off the membrane and strain the arils.
- Place the strained arils in a separate bowl.
- Set aside 4 tablespoons of the pomegranate arils for garnish.
- Lay out 4 slices of bread on a flat surface.
- Spread 2 tablespoons of cream cheese evenly onto each slice of bread.
- Top each cream cheese-coated slice with 1 tablespoon of pomegranate jelly.
- Carefully place another slice of bread on top to create a sandwich.
- Use a cookie cutter to create fun shapes (optional).
- Garnish each sandwich with 1 tablespoon of reserved pomegranate arils.
