Dried Pomegranate Seeds

Dried pomegranate seeds are among the healthiest fruits on Earth. Dried in the sun, the pomegranate seeds may be left whole or ground into a powder. The dried pomegranate seeds are crushed until crumbly and slightly sticky. It has a deep, strong bitterness and only a  hint of the fresh pomegranate’s sweetness. The flavor is related to lemon, tamarind, and sumac. This ingredient is traditionally used in Indian and Middle Eastern cuisine, where it may be added to chutneys, stews, spice rubs, and kababs.

The benefit of dried pomegranates is the fact that the preservation is easier, these can be easily packed and the best part is that they are now placed in the categories of dry fruits.
