Patience and Pomegranates

It's pomegranate season. For the next few months, look for red, round fruit with edible seeds, called arils, prized for health benefits:
- Cut each end off thinly, enough to reach white pulp without cutting into the arils
- Score the peel into quarter cuts with a knife, enough to reach white pulp without cutting into the arils. The idea is to make it easy to break open into four quarters.
- Finger the arils from the cut sections into a bowl. Discard the whitish sectional pulp into a bowl or compost heap.
Photos still not loading. Please use imagination exercise.
It may take as much as 5 minutes to patiently tease out the arils. Good for practicing breathing, and good posture while standing over a counter.
Eat the sweet, slightly tart arils with a spoon. They are crunchy and juicy.
