Pomegranate molasses
Pomegranate molasses
In Cyprus we have an abondance of pomegranate trees, so naturally I ended up with a lot of fruits as everyone is giving them away! After having some in my breakfast, salads, and pasta, I decided to make some pomegranate molasses.
Vegan, nut free, soy free | 400ml | DIP
Ingredients:
- 8 pomegranates
- 125g sugar
- 125ml lemon juice
Steps:
1.Remove the seeds from the pomegranates and juice them. From 8 pomegranates, I got 930ml of juice.
2.Add the juice in a large pot, along with the sugar and lemon juice.
3.Bring to boil and lower the heat.
4.Cook for 2 hour or until the molasses has reduced, stirring occasionally.
5.Let it cool down and put it in clean jars.
6.Store it in the fridge.
Notes:
*If you don't have a juicer, you can use a food processor and then sieve the seeds out.
*You can use a store-bought juice instead, but make sure is 100% pomegranates.
Enjoy!
