Yield 1 pint pomegranate molasses.

Number Of Ingredients 3

2 dozen pomegranates (they should be large, red and a little soft on the blossom end when pressed with the thumb) or 6 cups pomegranate juice
1 cup sugar
1 cup lemon juice

Steps:

  • Wash the pomegranates. Roll them around until they soften, then break up the pomegranates under water to keep juice from spurting. Give a good bang with the back of the knife to loosen the seeds of each section.
  • To squeeze out the juice: Wrap a handful of seeds in cheesecloth, then use your hands to squeeze into a bowl to obtain the rich, shiny liquid. Repeat wit the remaining seeds. (Do not use a juicer. Pomegranate juice stains are difficult to remove, and the bitter, tannic white part of the fruit gets mixed in and mars the flavor).
  • Place pomegranate juice, sugar and lemon juice in an enameled saucepan and slowly reduce by boiling to 2 cups. Cool, bottle, and keep refrigerated.
