How to cut pomegranates easily



People freak out when they have to cut a pomegranate. Its juicy, its complicated. It has many health benefits. 

when i was a little girl i had watched a pomegranate vendor cut pomegranate in front of me while my mom purchased it. It was in Bangalore , where pomegranate vendors carry pomegranates on their bicycles in a basket . They cut it in shape of flower to display their fruits.


STEP 1: use a knife and on top of pomegranate head draw a plus sign digging deep in center ( only).Dont extend tothin skin yet.

STEP 2 : Now extend the cut till the other end slicing only the thinner peel ( do not dig deeperinto seeds. cut only the thin peel)in straight lines along the plus u cut.

by now our pomegranate is divided in four sections.

STEP 4 : Gently pull out each section one by one outward. 


STEP 5: Pomegranate opens up like flower blooming and all seeds are visible. 

Gently drizzle out the seeds with finger tips in a box and enjoy!!
