Pomegranate Parfait (Parfait de granadas)





I have several pending recipes with pomegranate seeds (that I love anyway) here in the southern hemisphere we are ending the summer and I remembered   still had frozen pomegranate seeds and had to use  because in the fall come the new.

 Several people have commented to me  they freeze pomegranate  seeds.

Pomegranates can be frozen either whole or seeded I prefers only seeds.  For their gorgeous seeds first is important  will be ripe 
After collecting the seeds put them on a paper towel. Pat them dry. Put on a cookie sheet. Place in the freezer about 30 minutes so the seds get firm and put them in a labeled freezer container or bag.

And here other link : How to freeze pomegranate seeds

This dessert is easy to make and delicious.

  10. Gloria, Very pretty parfait creation! My wife would love this but since I don't like yogurt (or even the smell of it) I'd have to opt for ice cream as a substitute... Take Care, Big Daddy Dave
