Ingredients
- 5 large, juicy sweet pomegranates (about 1 kg / 4 1/2 lb) slightly chilled
- 5 teaspoon orange flower water, or to taste
Instructions
(POMEGRANATE JUICE). Serves 4 - 6.. Extract the juice from the pomegranates. There are two ways to do this. The quickest is to cut the fruits in half and press them like oranges. This can be a little messy, especially if you are using a domestic press where you hold the fruit down by hand; some seeds will fall out which will have to be pressed with your fingers. Also, the pressed juice may have a hint of bitterness, from the acrid inside flesh. The other method, which will produce more and finer juice, is to ease out the seeds which you then put through a vegetable juicer, but you will need patience as it is time-consuming. Pour the juice into a jug and stir in the orange flower water. If you are not going to serve the juice straight away, make sure you cover it well so that it does not oxidize. Note: Make sure you buy sweet pomegranates and not the sour ones that are used in cooking.
