Inside the fruits, seeds cluster like a glimmering carpet beneath thin yellow membranes. These small red seeds are packed with health-supporting antioxidants along with deliciously sweet, tart juice. On the outside, the apple-sized fruit has a leathery shell that can range from pink to deep crimson, even russet brown.

Cut the Pomegranate into quarters over a paper towel. Fill a medium bowl with cold water. Hold a Pomegranate quarter under the water, seed side down. Pull edges back, exposing seeds. Run fingers over seeds to remove them. Turn fruit over, still holding underwater, and pick out remaining seeds. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe best pairings for Pomegranates include citrus, melon, tea, lemongrass, chiles and avocado.
