I live on the far norh coast of New South Wales (Australia) have a couple of Pomegrante trees stacked with fruit. A lot of jam coming up (minus the seeds I think)

I am OBSESSED with pomegranates too! I make popsicles with poms and I seal them together with fresh squeezed orange juice! IT IS AMAZING! The two flavors together is PERFECT! I am going to have to try your recipe! Also freezing pom seeds is awesome! My kids love them!

Just at tip for juicing the pomegranate. Without cutting it, roll it on the counter, squeezing gently so you don’t break the skin. when the pom is like a soft little sack, make a little “x” with a knife (watch out, the juice with splurt out!) and squeeze the juice into a bowl. You can keep carefully squeezing the pom as you go to gets all the seeds. You can feel them pop as you’re squeezing.

I am definitely going to try this jam recipe and your ice-cream/sorbet recipies.. I am from South Africa and you rarely see pomegranates in the Fruit & Veg shops and if you do they are also expensive.. I am very lucky to have my very own pom-tree in my yard. The tree is not that big but it sure yields a LOT of pomegranates. I searched the net for recipies and voila came upon your site!!

My favorite drink is freshly squeezed pomegranate juice,blended with freshly squeezed orange juice. It’s a very tasty energy drink.

Kari – Sorry to hear that. I’ve made this jam several times and the recipe works just fine. Making a note of this in the recipe; hope it turns out better if you ever decide to try again.

I just tried this recipe and it turned into candy! Hard as a rock. I cooked it exactly as the recipe calls, what did I do wrong?? There goes $15 and 5 hours of my time. Wish it had turned out, the jars look pretty…

I love pomegranates, as they are in season now in Spain I thought I would try. Just made a fig jam with anise seeds. I really like my jams to have a texture.
Think I will try one plain one, one with a little hint of chili and the tunisian one looked good.
Normally the jelly thing is a matter of time, with blueberries you normally add a bit of leafs as they have plenty of pectin.
Will post back to tellyou how it went.
