Today I am going to show you how to de-seed a fresh pomegranate without all the mess and I won't be using a bowl of water either. My way is easy and the pomegranate seeds come out without much effort. So if you want to know the best way on how to get the seeds out of a pomegranate this is it.
It's fun too because you get to whack the pomegranate with a wooden spoon. So if you have any agressions to get out, you'll love doing this.
What you are going to do is cut out the stem end of the pomegranate by cutting at an angle so that you core that stem out. Sometimes you will see the seeds when you remove the stem and sometimes you won't (as in the case of this video).
Then you are going to score the pomegranate starting from the removed stem end and continue down the fruit until you are a good 2 inches from the other end. You will continue to score 6 to 8 times around the whole pomegranate. And don't score so deep that you make the juice come out. Just score deep enough to penetrate the skin.
Then work over a bowl. Gently pull apart the pom but try not to break any pieces off. You want to keep the whole thing together and open it like a flower. Hold the pomegranate with the opening facing down in your hand.
Take a wooden spoon and whack, yes whack your pom and watch the seeds fall out. Keep whacking till they all fall out. You can pull open each segment as you go to help in releasing the seeds.
Once all the seeds are out, pick out any white membrane and discard it.
Pomegranates are super healthy for you. They contain good amounts of vitamin C, B's and polyphenols which are antioxidants that are great for our bodies.
Next I will show you how to eat a pomegranate. Make my pomegranate smoothie recipe, it's dynamite delicious!
Ingredients:
1 cup of pomegranate seeds
1 cup frozen blueberries
1 banana
1/4 of a ripe avocado
handful of fresh parsley and cilantro
1 cup of milk, of your choosing
4 to 5 ice cubes
Blend until smooth. If you are using a vitamix or blendtec (and you should), one minute should do it.
You can also freeze these pomegranate seeds so you can have them year round. Just place them on a cookie sheet in a single layer and freeze for a couple of hours and then place in a zip loc bag and you'll have seeds all year long.

We put our laptop on the kitchen counter and followed along with your instructions ... it worked like a charm! And there wasn't any messy juice all over the place! Great instructional video! Thank you!

[@RockinRobinCooks]

Thanks Tracy! Glad you found the video helpful! Merry Christmas.

[@Rick-ln7bw]

Wow , I see what you mean by fun . Have not had so much fun in years . Saturday night , a bunch of us are getting together to do just this , instead of going out clubbing . Update , a good and fun time was had by all .

[@alegna1983]

Rolling the Pom around like you roll a lemon and the seeds will pop so easily

[@RockinRobinCooks]

Thanks for the tip Angela!

[@amycurtiss5746]

We like to do pomegranates by cutting them in half first, also WHY put cilantro with the delicious and fabulous pom? Seems counter productive...but cheers!

[@jayinla310]

You need some knife training girl. Also, if you cut further out you can remove the top and see the membrains. Score along the membrains and get closer to the base. Then you can get more of the seeds out and they come out easier. Also processing the seeds in a food processor with a mixing blade and you can strain the juice. Good recipie and a good video though. Blend the pomegranate seeds by themsevles for a few seconds before adding the rest of the ingrediants helps. You are good on camera.

[@RockinRobinCooks]

jayinla310 Thanks for your input. I like the idea of placing the pomegranate seeds first in the blender by themselves for a few minutes. This is especially helpful if you do not have a high speed blender like a vitamix or blentec.

[@jayinla310]

Rockin Robin's Cooking Mexican Recipes Thanks for the acknowledgment. I never though of freezing the seeds before. I was serious about the knife skills though beacuse the way you used in the video could cause injury and was hard to watch. You can learn that by searching "knife skills"on KZbin and watching a few of the videos. Also Americas Test Kitchen has several good videos on using knives. Not hard to learn and it will make things faster and, most important, safer. Espcially since you are actually teaching in your videos. I like you because you seem to know what you are doing, are comfortable on camera and you have a pleasant presents and voice.

[@niall441]

use a heavy back end of a knife for banging out the seeds! works way quicker.

[@nelsangelin9667]

Make your skull cap cut lower down and peel off will expose where the membranes are and cut down at the membranes will extract the seeds faster.

[@RockinRobinCooks]

You are welcome!

[@avaburgher204]

its that pomegranate life

[@abiola6081]

I love your presentation. Thank you so much. I will be trying this.x

I started with Woodglut plans.

[@kellyf5004]

This doesn’t have to take as long! There’s better methods

[@zhaw4821]

This was not a stem. This is the flower. The stem is on the opposite side

[@alfonso2jz5]

Omg lol put captions on 6:12 on the video and it says i bled to death for about a minute xD

[@sharon2764]

Dirt Farmer Jay does it more efficiently. Take a look.

[@Jesussavedme]

She was supposed to take out the middle white part with her hand also needs to pound on one part at a time an hold on to that part with your fingers 😉

[@monstagirl131]

[@RockinRobinCooks]

[@jimmyjones3296]

I’m a newcomer to your channel as I just stumbled across your video about pomegranates. I’ve got two pomegranates in my refrigerator and I’ve got all the other ingredients that you mentioned. I will be making this smoothie first thing in the morning. I have subscribed. Thanks a bunch!!

[@RockinRobinCooks]

You are welcome Jimmy! Hope your smoothie was delicious, nutritious and it makes you ambitious!

[@kimgage4364]

Yum!! We rarely get pomegranates up here!

[@TheGaurdianSeesYou]

I like her, she reminds me of mi abuelita.

[@davidcastagna752]

I still say with all your edits that the best way is to use your hands...that’s pretty much it after 20 minutes...lol

[@amirevaniandstudents9277]

Agree. There are so many cuts and edits! Sure it takes more than 20 minutes.

[@taraschmidheini4674]

👍👍

[@angysofia8223]

Thank u so much this was so helpful also I subscribed!!!

[@sawdog1563]

Thanks for the video on the Pomegranate, I am just now learning. have never cut into one before. Thanks

[@RockinRobinCooks]

Saw dog You are welcome!

[@toriwolf5978]

Awsome thank you so much I’m going to my kitchen and try that lol

[@mama2alix]

Thank you for that great way to open pomegranates. Also for the smoothie idea. Now that I know how to open them easily, smoothies make sense. I just found you and hope to see you do some vegan dishes. You are an amazing cook, I can tell all ready.

[@RockinRobinCooks]

Hi Shannon, thank you for the nice comment.

[@dorrellclarke4887]

Thanks for this smoothie recipe and teaching me how to store Pomegranate 👍

[@RockinRobinCooks]

You are welcome Darrell!

[@Gauravasmu]

nice mam

[@maggiemay8622]

I used spinach instead of cilantro, yummy 😋

[@RockinRobinCooks]

Sounds great!

[@ronniemead805]

Thank you for this great recipe. Love, love your videos. I am a super fan.

[@RockinRobinCooks]

Thanks Ronnie! I appreciate your support! I hope you will share my channel so others can enjoy it too!

[@janiselmeris5705]

Thanks for the recipe! The smoothie was all right, only I need to chew the seeds with every sip - probably my blender is not good enough. Or the pomegranate was too old.

[@RockinRobinCooks]

You really need a high powered blender like a Vitamix or Blendtec to handle seeds well. It will turn out absolutely smooth. No chewing required! Thanks for your comment.

[@Chihiro53197]

I ate a pomegranate once... As it turns out, I am allergic to them... *sighs*

[@RockinRobinCooks]

That's too bad.

[@leslieperez1577]

I tried this and it was so so good

[@noviceprepper53]

thank you

[@aficionado7178]

too much work and it even doesnt work

[@RockinRobinCooks]

+aficionado I find this technique to be easy, quick and even fun. It's how how get the seeds out of my pomegranate every time. Did you actually try it?

[@mohammadebady7864]

nice jobe

[@RockinRobinCooks]

mohammad ebady Thank you!

[@JasonSmith-qx3zh]

This was the best thanks for just one more of yur awesome shares!

[@RockinRobinCooks]

Thank you Jason, I appreciate the comment!

[@Kassandra3870]

Love granadas, I will deff try this. Thanks so much, I spent hours trying to take out the seeds and i'd get my clothes all stained. Now it will be fun for me, and great smoothie. Ill have to try it.

[@Ruby543ify]

Wow! I tried so hard. This time, I think I'll follow this method. ;) One doubt : Don't the seeds break easily with the whacking?

[@RockinRobinCooks]

+Rabia S Do try this method. The seeds don't break that easy. It's fast and fun!

[@christopherjohnson2234]

Completely useless

[@tophertaylor5109]

This recipe is excellent! And your instructions are definitely easy to follow. I still have all the pomegranate seeds in my smoothie, but I don't mind. I'll have to try the tip about blending the seeds for a little while before adding everything else. My blender is a Ninja, so that shouldn't be an issue. Anyway, thanks!

[@RockinRobinCooks]

Christopher Taylor Thanks Christopher! Hope this video helps you have. Have a great day!

[@joannepereira5080]

Thank You can’t wait to try But won’t be the same allergic to banana & avocado 👐❤️😔
