How to prepare a pomegranate – Jamie Oliver’s Home Cooking Skills


00:00:00so pomegranates packed full of delicious

00:00:02seeds and that’s what we’re trying to

00:00:04get hold of can be quite tricky but the

00:00:07way that we do I actually think it’s the

00:00:09most fun fruit to prepare

00:00:11bowl to catch all the seeds put that in

00:00:17front of you need to pick your

00:00:18pomegranate happy and then you’ll see at

00:00:28the top it’s got like a little crown

00:00:30that wants to sit on its side because

00:00:33we’re going to cook right through the

00:00:34middle okay so very tips of your fingers

00:00:38keeping your fingers out of the way

00:00:40you’re going to point the Tippie knife

00:00:42towards the board the pomegranates nice

00:00:45and secure and then you’re going to push

00:00:48down to the board and straighten half

00:00:54breathe Wow look at that

00:00:58so nice can go out the way because we

00:01:01didn’t need those anymore then you want

00:01:04to get your bowl and we’re basically

00:01:10just going to bash the seeds down to the

00:01:12pomegranate now what you put your hand

00:01:14in the way to catch some of the bits and

00:01:17to hold it firmly some people use the

00:01:20hands to back I like to use a wooden

00:01:22spoon the aim is to hit the pomegranate

00:01:46not your fingers so you pick out your

00:01:53bits of skin that fall out because they

00:01:57don’t taste great

00:02:06so that’s it empty skins and a bowl for

00:02:09the seeds easy yeah
