Pomegranate Seed Removal Techniques

Instructions

1. Circle Cut Method: Cut a circle around the edge of the pomegranate to create a 'sir kentagon' and then pull the top off. Cut around the cork and pull that out. Cut down each side of the pentagonal walls then pull it apart to get easy access to the seeds.
2. Spanking Method: Flip the pomegranate over a bowl of water and give it a nice spanking to get most of the seeds out.
3. Water Bowl Method: After spanking, manually pull out the white pieces or do this over a bowl of water and then strain the white bits off the top since they float. Then strain the seeds.
4. Tube Method: Give the pomegranate a good shake to loosen up the seeds. Grab a 12-inch length of tube, jam it in there, then pour those seeds out.
5. Drinking Glass Method: Take a standard semi-porous drinking glass and slam the pomegranate on it to release the seeds.
6. Rolling Method: Slice down the middle of the pomegranate and then give it a good roll to leave a trail of seeds that you can collect.
7. Pepper Shaker Method: Cut three holes in the top of the pomegranate to make a 'pepper pepper pepper pomegranate' and sprinkle those seeds out.
8. Outdoor Method: This method can occasionally cause pomegranate juice spray, so it's recommended to do it outside. Start by giving your pomegranate a nice roll.
