How to Make Seeding A Pomegranate Step By Step

  1. Cut the pomegranate in half horizontally.
  2. Fill a large bowl with cold water.
  3. Submerge one pomegranate half in the water, cut-side down.
  4. Using your fingers, gently separate the pomegranate arils (the seeds) from the white membrane under the water. The membrane will float to the surface and the arils will sink to the bottom.
  5. Let the arils settle at the bottom of the bowl.
  6. Carefully scoop out the arils using a slotted spoon. Discard the membrane floating on top of the water.
  7. Repeat steps 3-6 with the other half of the pomegranate.
  8. Drain the arils and enjoy! Use them in salads, yogurt, cocktails, or eat them as a healthy snack.
