First, you use a star-shaped knife to cut around the stem of the pomegranate like this. Sisters, cut a bit harder.
Next, you use your hand to gently separate the stem that you just cut into a star shape. After separating the stem, sisters continue to peel off the surrounding skin to see the veins inside the pomegranate.
Now, you just need to use the knife to peel off the remaining skin along the veins inside the pomegranate to easily separate all the seeds.
With this method, sisters can confidently separate all the pomegranate seeds without making them break or the juice flowing everywhere. Separating pomegranate seeds for eating or for juice without putting them into the machine and losing all the juice is both wasteful and unhygienic. If you still have the habit of cutting vertically or horizontally to get the seeds, you must save and try this method to separate pomegranate seeds!
Some “amazing” uses of pomegranate that you may not know
1. Improve sexual and reproductive health
Oxidative imbalance has been shown to be a cause of male infertility and reduced fertility in women.
The concentration of antioxidants in pomegranate juice and its ability to affect oxidative imbalance make this type of juice capable of supporting women’s fertility. In addition, pomegranate juice has also been shown to help reduce oxidative imbalance in pregnancy.
For men, pomegranate juice can also increase testosterone levels, one of the main hormones that control sexual function.
2. Improve cardiovascular health
By regularly drinking pomegranate juice, you can maintain smooth blood flow in your body. In addition, pomegranate juice also helps reduce the risk of heart attack and stroke. The antioxidants in this fruit will significantly reduce “bad” cholesterol levels in your body and thin out blood clots, helping to keep arteries functioning and flowing better.
3. Boost immunity
Pomegranate juice provides vitamin C and other immune-boosting nutrients such as vitamin E, helping to prevent diseases and infections. Moreover, studies have also shown that pomegranate has antibacterial and antiviral properties.
