Today, I will introduce a relatively simple method for picking pomegranate seeds, which should be called kneading method.
Put the pomegranate on the chopping board, press it on the palm of your hand, and push the pomegranate back and forth, so that the seeds inside are loose and separated (so you will hear a similar popping sound when rolling the pomegranate). Then dig a hole in the skin and squeeze the pomegranate juice out; You can also insert a straw to release the juice.
Because the skin may break when rolling, pomegranate juice will leak out, so you can put pomegranate in a fresh-keeping bag first, and then press and rub it, so as not to be afraid of contaminating the chopping board.
Peel pomegranate
1. Press pomegranate
Put pomegranate on a relatively stable and hard chopping board, and then press it hard with your palm, so that the white diaphragm wrapped with pomegranate seeds will break. During this step, you should press around the pomegranate in different directions, during which you may hear a crackling sound inside, which means that a little pomegranate seeds are crushed, which is inevitable. Do you want to eat fried eggs without breaking the eggshell first?
2. Press the fruit pedicle
Press the thumb and forefinger hard at both ends of pomegranate. This place usually has the thickest pulp. When you hear the obvious cracking sound, it means that the peel and pulp have separated.
3. Knead pomegranate
Roll pomegranate back and forth on the chopping board. Don't use too much force in this step-the purpose is to loosen the seeds and prevent them from breaking. You have to constantly change the angle when you rub it.
4. Dig off the pedicel
At this step, the pomegranate should become soft. Dig out the pedicle with a knife. This step should be carried out in a large bowl to avoid the loss of juice. Students who don't have any tools can just bite a hole hard, but the white part inside will be a little bitter.
5. Break the pomegranate
Break the pomegranate with your hands in a big bowl. You can see that all the seeds in it are loose.
6. Shake out pomegranate seeds
Put the pomegranate crack down, shake and knead, and let the pomegranate seeds fall into the bowl. Some of them are stubborn. Scrape them off with your fingers.
7, enjoy
the final result. No more pomegranate red everywhere, like a crime scene.
