Pomegranate

Key facts

Pomegranates contain vitamin C and are rich in antioxidants - add them to salads and desserts or eat them on their own. One the easiest ways to remove the seeds is to halve the fruit, then, holding it skin side up over a bowl, whack it with a wooden spoon and allow the seeds to fall out between your fingers.

Season: Best from September to December

The pomegranate has a hard skin and contains a honeycomb of jewel-like, edible seeds in pink juice chambers. The best specimens are red-streaked and hard-skinned. They can be eaten straight from the shell-like skin with a spoon or you can cut the fruit into quarters and bend back the skin to release the seeds and juice.
