Thermomix Pomegranate Molasses
The pomegranate is known to be quite symbolic in some cultures. My grandmother always talks about how it symbolises new beginnings, eternal life and abundance. Some believe that eating the pomegranate seeds will bring good luck to marriage and could support fertility.
To make the pomegranate molasses I first use these Thermomix instructions to peel my pomegranate and make the juice. Then I continue on with the recipe in the Salad Collection cookbook to make the molasses.
Pomegranate Molasses Uses
Pomegranate molasses can be used in a variety of ways:
● Dressing in a salad – try the Lentil Salad
● To glaze meat, a steak, chicken wings, fish, salmon or koftas ● Add it to a stew for flavour depth and richness
● Drizzle over veggies before baking in the oven or steaming ● Add to a stir fry for a richer sweet and sour flavour
● Add to dips such as hummus or olive dip
● Add to cocktails or to sparkling water
● Flavour marshmallows and ice cream
● Serve with halloumi
