Pomegranate Salad with Nuts
2011-11-28 16:00:00 Minoo served a side dish of Pomegranate Salad with Nuts along with the Chickpea Curry and Moroccan Carrot Soup. Pomegranate is in season in late fall. Minoo's daughter loves this salad and she must have it when pomegranate is in season. Pomegranate is rich in Vitamin C. It is a good source of vitamin B5, potassium and polyphenols such as tannins and flavonoids. It is also rich in fiber which is entirely contained in the edible seeds which is also a supply of unsaturated oils.

Fig and Pomegranate Dorayaki
2009-03-10 10:44:00 When we went to Little Tokyo Mitsuwa 2 days before they closed, and I saw these. The price tag says $1.99, but everything was 50% off, so they were 99 cents each.What is dorayaki? CLICK HERE.Basic dorayaki usually has red bean paste in it, but these had a fig and/or pomegranate jam spread between red bean paste and pancake. We loved these. These are delicious. Especially we liked the fig. Fig had more stronger flavor than pomegranate.So if you see them at the supermarket (you can probably get at Mitsuwa), try it. I recommended! They are perfect with green tea!Picture left is fig, and the right is pomegranate.Rating (food): 4.5 / 5Repeat: Yes

Pomegranate Hibiscus Tea & Honey Ginger Yogurt Verrines - A Virtual Hug
2008-12-05 06:36:00 I play well with food. We get along nicely.I can twirl it around, bake it, cut it, stretch it, play it up, play it down.We spend many hours together everyday. Swishing sounds of the whisk play with the silence of my thoughts.We do get along well. Sometimes though I wish I weren't alone in the kitchen.Peeling fruit, brewing tea. Impatiently waiting for that drop of honey to fall from the spoon. Sometimes I wish I had Barbara with me in the kitchen.I know she would sit on the vintage stool by the counter. For about 5 minutes before heading in there with me.I know she would pour us a glass of wine while helping me pick the buttercream from my cheekLike she virtually wiped the tears from my heart last year when I lost someone I had never met but already loved.She would remind me to dance even if only in my head.In fact I believe she'd turn the radio louder and we'd dance right in the middle of spun sugar and flour clouds.Then we would fall loudly on the sofa and laugh...and hug.Barba...

The Benefits of Pomegranate in Your Daily Diet
2008-03-12 21:25:00 Many of us have heard of the pomegranate; it has been written about in famous literature and even in mythology. The problem is that far fewer people have ever eaten pomegranate or even seen it. Pomegranate has tons of wonderful benefits that you should know about. Once you know everything it can do for you, you may want to include it in your diet on a regular basis. Pomegranates help promote heart health and proper circulation. They contain three times the antioxidants of wine or green tea which, among other things, promote a healthy heart. Regular consumption of pomegranate juice...

Roasted Lamb with Pomegranate Reduction
2008-03-11 11:00:00 agnello/lambI think lamb is a yes or no kind of meat. You either like it or you don?t. I haven?t met many who are wishy-washy about it. Admittedly, I was not a fan of lamb when I was young. Now, as an adult, I have really enjoyed the lamb dishes I have had. The only thing is (get ready to do an inhaling gasp, Lamb eaters?.) I can only eat lamb medium well-well. I know! Most like it rare. Not I (said the fly)! Not me (said the bee)! I can?t (said the ant)!Like most serving sizes, a small 3 ounce piece (similar to that of a deck of cards) is a proper portion and lamb is around 175 calories. Not bad! Add that to its fabulous deliverer of protein, vitamins, and minerals. So, why don?t more people eat lamb?Many people may be concerned with the saturated fat/cholesterol content lamb, since its red meat. But, not to worry. Choose lean cuts of lamb, and practice use low-fat cooking practices (roasting, broiling, grilling, etc.) Also, lamb is an easy meat to see the marbling (the fat). You c...

Pomegranate: Health Benefits Have Never Tasted So Good!
2008-03-08 14:04:00 by Lina Baker and Randa Khalil The pomegranate is an ancient fruit native of Persia, Pakistan and Afghanistan that was cultivated and naturalized in Georgia, Armenia and over the whole Mediterranean region and northern India since ancient times. It is mentioned several times in the Old Testament, and the ancient city of Granada in Spain was renamed after the fruit during the Moorish period. The pomegranate shrub was introduced to California by Spanish settlers in the early 18th Century, and is now widely cultivated in that state as well as in Arizona. With a rich history in myth, symbolism and art, the pomegranate was even thought by some scholars to be the forbidden fruit, which tempted Eve, and not the apple. Because of the intense ruby color of its edible seeds, the pomegranate was an inspiration to many artists of the region, including the Georgian filmmaker Paradjanov, whose masterpiece film was titled ?The Colour of Pomegranates?. The pomegranat...

Sanguine Salad (Roasted Beets, Blood Oranges, and Pomegranate)
2008-02-19 13:44:00 I made this last week as part of dinner for Valentine’s Day because, although it is red, it is comprised of a variety of components that are all a deep, bloody shade of red – perfect for a dinner made by someone who hates Valentine’s Day! This salad is stunning for the senses: visually, it’s an arresting amalgamation of the deep reddish-pink of roasted beets, the juicy maroon of blood oranges, and the radiant ruby of the pomegranate seeds; on your tastebuds, the combination of earthy, sweet, tangy, tart, and acidic works wonderfully. It’s a dish with looks that could kill and a taste that thrills the palate – an awesome combination for Valentine’s Day or any day of the year.

Dr Brandt anti-oxidant water booster Pomegranate Product Review
2008-02-04 03:23:00 I heart good product! While in New York last month I got tosample (and re-sample and re-sample x 20) dr. brandt’s anti-oxidant water booster in the pomegranate flavor. There are two otherflavors available, lemon and original as well that I did not try. The anti-oxidant booster comes in a small glassdropper bottle.There are about 60 servings per bottle for $35,a full dropper per8 ounces water is recommended.I’m not always that careful about the amount it’s going into, if I haven’t downed enough water during the day I add my dropper fill to more water. I’ve had this hot and cold but I have a real preference for the cold with icecubes.My ritual: Iput in some ice cubes in my water awhile before I plan on drinking it and then I put inmy dropper full of water booster and mix/shake. The water boostertastes like green tea with a delicious twist, one dopper full is the equivalent of 15 cups of green tea! that is truly amazing and such a time sa...

Pomegranate Wine From Israel
2008-01-28 07:57:00 By Paul GreguttI have to tell you, I'm not big on fruit wines. I mean, it's fine with me if your grandmother "puts up" dandelion or thimbleberry or some other oddball fermented beverage that falls under the general rubric of wine. But it's not really wine, is it?Real wine, I have long believed, must come from grapes, specifically European (vinifera) cultivars. Made from anything else, it may occasionally be perfectly pleasant. But will it achieve the complexity of fine wine? Not likely.Allow me to eat those words, while introducing you to the pleasures of — ahem — pomegranate wine.Rimon winery, in Israel's Upper Galilee, has just released a truly excellent dessert wine, made from pomegranates. Not, the owners are quick to point out, like the many other pomegranate alcoholic-beverage products on the market. Rimon's wines (which are kosher-certified, by the way) are produced by crushing the fruit, fermenting it in stainless steel, and then, believe it or not, aging the wine i...

Banana Soy Muffins with pomegranate pear syrup
2008-01-19 20:11:00 Weekend Breakfast Blogging had my attention over the last couple of days - after the soy pancakes turned out great, I really wanted to make another soy-based breakfast recipe. Kind of hard to work primarily with soy flour though - it has no gluten content, which means no elasticity and there is no assistance during fermentation which is what helps the bread rise when baking. In addition to these, gluten helps keep the shape of the bread since it firms up when cooked. Gluten resources for those interested:Gluten on WikipediaGluten composition in cereals and gluten diseaseGluten free recipes Anyway, after poking around several cookbooks and sites, I couldn't quite find any cake or bread recipe that didn't use a combination of soy flour with either wheat or rice or triticum flour. Oh well, guess I just had to try it out - and hope that the end result is somewhat edible. I decided to play it safe and try a banana muffin recipe with soy flour. And to make things even simpler, I mic...

White pomegranate ?????? ???????
2008-01-15 23:42:00 I was never all that amused by the milder, sweeter varieties of watermelon or cherries in their white or pale yellow finery. The redder the better, I usually say, but these Spanish white pomegranates were a revelation. They are almost as deep red inside as common pomegranates, and much more sweet and flowery. The real miracle is the juiciness of the seeds. They are about twice as large as common pomegranate seeds, but the inner fibrous kernel is much smaller, so they are almost all pulp. I found this one on my recent visit to Canada, or somewhere of that sort. The Yiddish word for white pomegranate is ?????? ??????? (vayser milgroym).Ever seen one of these, Sweetnicks?

Some of the combinations are insanely imaginative and the results often sound fabulous - nothing like stretching the boundaries, huh? :) So, I made this dessert over a week ago, but never got around to posting it and sending it to Jenn. But it turned out pretty good, so might as well talk about it, huh? The ingredients for December were pomegranate, pistachio and mint.

ORAC Values of Acai Berry, Goji Berry, Pomegranate and Mangosteen
2007-12-28 21:09:00 ORAC (Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity) is a measure of how well antioxidants absorb free radicals. Superfruits such as the Acai berry, Goji Berry, Pomegranate and Mangosteen has quite high ORAC values. The USDA (U.S. Department of Agriculture) ARS (Agricultural Research Service) in their 2007 ORAC values for selected foods has not provided data for these superfruits aside from pomegranate juice which scores 2,341. To achieve optimum health, USDA recommends an intake of 5,000 ORAC units per day. Daily food consumption for an average person attains only about 20% to 30% of this recommendation. This means a lot more of foods with good ORAC scores like fruits and vegetables must be included in one's daily food intake. Approximate ORAC scores taken other research institutions like Tufts University and manufacturers of superfruits has come up with the following data: Superfruit- 1 gram ORAC Value Acai Berry 3,800 Pomegranate 105 Goji Berry 253 Mangosteen >...

Roasted Brussels Sprouts with Hazelnuts and Pomegranate
2007-12-07 21:46:00 And another recipe for brussels sprouts. They have gotten a bad rap for so many years because they haven’t been cooked the right way. These little green guys deserve better treatment than being dunked in or suspended over boiling water. A little coating of oil and a hot oven is what they need, and they will shine if you do so. Once you’ve done that, the possibilities are endless. They’re great on their own, but they can take on a whole new persona with the addition of a few extra ingredients. I love a traditional treatment of walnuts and parmesan, but I’ve recently experimented (and with success, I think) with some different dressings. I had just de-seeded a pomegranate, so I decided to add the arils to roasted Brussels sprouts, figuring that the little bursts of tart sweetness would complement the crunchy caramelized outer layers and the inner earthiness of the brussels sprouts. I also threw in some hazelnuts for a little extra crunch and another layer of sweet/savory flav...
Punicalagin Antioxidants in Pomegranate
2007-12-07 19:32:00 Antioxidants in Pomegranate Punicalagins, a tannin, are the major antioxidant components of pomegranate. Other antioxidant present in the pomegranate fruit are anthocyanins(responsible for the color both inside and outside of the fruit), ellagitannins, and hydrolyzed tannins. This is how the fruit became popular and has come to be one of the so called superfuits or superfoods. The fruit is about 2.5" to 5" in diameter, roundish, and is riddled with many seeds inside. The flesh covering the seeds are edible. The color is green outside when raw but turns to a bright attractive red when fully ripe. The taste is semi sweet and semi sour. Because of its antioxidant power, many manufacturers have produced juices, extracts and other health beneficial products from this fruit. Many studies have been done in testing the antioxidant capacity of punicalagins and anthocyanin together with other antioxidants found in pomegranate. The following is a list of some observations that were ...

How to Make Pomegranate Molasses
2007-12-06 15:57:00 I'm not exactly sure when I started hearing about pomegranate molasses, but it was such an interesting concept I had to try it out.I'm a girl who loves regular ol' sorghum molasses. It's good stuff. It's especially good dripping out of a buttery biscuit. I've not tried pomegranate molasses in a biscuit yet, but don't worry... I will soon!Pomegranate molasses is a staple in middle eastern cooking. I don't do a lot of middle eastern cooking, but I love foods from that area. The molasses is a rich, thick syrup basically made from simply cooking down pomegranate juice.This molasses can be used to make beverages, sauces, homemade marinades, salad dressings, etc... You can also make appetizers by placing cream cheese chunks on crackers and drizzling the pomegranate molasses over them.It's also excellent drizzled over meats such as chicken and pork, as I did last night.You can also buy pomegranate molasses at a variety of online stores for exorbitant prices, but why would you do ...
Maple, Coriander, and Pomegranate Glazed Acorn Squash
2007-12-02 21:51:00 This is another side dish I served for my family’s Thanksgiving dinner. I had a lot of fun with taking traditional Thanksgiving ingredients and putting a twist on them. In this one, acorn squash (which I think is boring) gets a sweet, tart, and smoky glaze: the rich maple syrup keeps things traditional, and the pomegranate molasses and coriander provide a great foil to the sweetness of the syrup.
