Simply irresistible
The juicy, jewel-like arils of Royal Pom™ pomegranates have an intense, unforgettably sweet-sharp flavour. They can be eaten fresh, or processed by squeezing or blending to produce a tangy, mildly astringent, versatile juice.
Foodies' say...
"I served Royal Pom™ pomegranates in Sirromet's degustation menu featuring quail with pomegranate molasses and Royal Pom™ pomegranates arils scattered in the salad. Our guests' reaction was very favourable - some people had never seen or eaten pomegranates before. At close to a kilo each in size, they are bursting with juice and seeds and are great value for money."
- Andrew Mirosch, executive chef, Sirromet Winery, Brisbane
"On my first encounter with Royal Pom™ pomegranates, I was amazed how big they were - one was the biggest pomegranate I've ever seen! They were lovely and fresh with a nice, glossy red skin and plenty of sweet juice."
- Adrian Richardson, executive chef/owner, La Luna Bistro, Melbourne
"Once you get past the multitude of seeds, its juice is tangy, sweet, rich and flavourful."
- Jeremy Vincent, Weekly Times Now (Melbourne)
"The pomegranate is beautiful, ancient and exotic … the secret is to appreciate them for their tart, delicate flavour and interesting texture."
- Bridgitte Hafner, Epicure, The Age (Melbourne)
"Good-quality eating pomegranates have plenty of juicy red pulp, sweet with only a slightly astringent edge."
- Gillian Hirst, The Courier Mail (Brisbane).
"Majestic pomegranates have a festive air about them and are easily identified by their glossy garnet-coloured skin and small crown."
- Lynne Mullins, www.cuisine.com.au
"What better way to add a little zest and fun to a meal than adding the jewel-like seeds of a pomegranate for a sweet, yet tart crunch."
