What Is Dry Pomegranate?

Dry Pomegranate is the sun dried seeds of pomegranate used as souring agent in many dishes.

Culinary Use

Dry Pomegranate can enrich a sauce or braising liquid for as long as you like, and it only gets better with time. Slow cooked with chicken legs or lamb, the result is rich and profound. Many versions of Persian fasenjan (chicken with walnut and pomegranate sauce) rely on dry pomegranate for the sauce’s subtleties. When ground, it’s perfect in chutneys, relishes, and spice rubs for meat and seafood, especially those that would benefit from the crunch of its interior seeds. It is used as a quick and easy way to bring new life to blander vegetables like potatoes and cauliflower: Just grind, then roast or steam. It’s similar to pomegranate molasses, but its lower moisture content makes it the choice ingredient for jobs where a syrup would be out of place.
