How to Make Pomegranates In Orange Flower Water

  1. **Prep the Pomegranates:** Cut the pomegranate crown off, and score the fruit into quarters. Submerge in a bowl of water and break apart gently under water. Separate the arils from the white pith, allowing the seeds to sink and the pith to float. Remove the pith.
  2. **Rinse and Dry:** Rinse the pomegranate arils in a colander and pat them completely dry.
  3. **Assemble the Dessert:** Divide the pomegranate seeds evenly among four small glass serving bowls (approximately 1 cup of seeds per bowl).
  4. **Infuse with Flavor:** Sprinkle 1 teaspoon of orange flower water and 1 1/2 teaspoons of granulated sugar over the pomegranate seeds in each bowl.
  5. **Chill and Serve:** Refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to blend and the dessert to chill. Serve cold and enjoy!
  6. **Optional: Freeze for Later:** For future use, freeze the prepared pomegranate arils in an airtight container or sealable bag for up to 3 months.
