Step 5: Opening the Pomegranate Now comes the fun part – opening the pomegranate to reveal its treasure trove of juicy seeds. Hold the fruit over a bowl or sink, then gently pull apart the sections along the scored lines. As you do so, you’ll hear a satisfying crackling sound as the seeds separate from the membrane.
Step 6: Extracting the Seeds With the pomegranate opened, it’s time to extract the seeds. Use your fingers or a spoon to gently pry the seeds away from the membrane, allowing them to fall into the bowl below. Continue until you’ve removed all the seeds from the fruit.
