The box that we have received from Nature's Pride contained, besides delicious exotic fruit also a recipe book. And with permission from Nature's Pride I may publish a recipe from that recipe book. I've chosen a delicious avocado salad with pomegranate.
With blogging I have incidentally learned a lot of interesting things. During my previous blog posts with pomegranate (thick yogurt with honey and pomegranate prosecco with cinnamon I bought a delicious fresh pomegranate. I saw those boxes with pomegranate seeds (where the pomegranate was already deseeded) standing at a large supermarket chain, but was thinking that deseed a pomegranate wouldn't have to be that hard, you could deseed a pomegranate in probably a minute (at least I thought). I put my knife in the pomegranate and cleft it in two pieces. while I thought, you see it is not so bad. However, when I pulled the seeds out with my spoon I found out why there are people who buy the pomegranate seeds harvested. Due to the pressure of that spoon on the seeds a juice flow started to spout out freely in all directions. Luckily I was facing the washable photo in the kitchen (that saved my wall of a pink color), but my white sweater (whom of you does also wear white while cooking without an apron) so my sweater was damaged beyond repair. Open the pomegranate and get the seeds out costed only a few minutes, but the cleaning up costed a lot more. My lesson:.. if I have another pomegranate I now operate the fruit in the sink, with an apron and gloves. I put a cloth on top (a clean old one, which may get pink) of the fruit. And fortunately it worked fine! It just takes a few minutes to get the seeds out, just as I expected.
