Backyard pomegranates
This is what happens when you leave a pomegranate on the branch a little too long. They turn almost inside out. When they open a bit, that means they're perfect for eating. This one is a little out of control. These grow well in Southern California. I had no idea, until my parents tree started shedding fruit.Aside from just eating them like this, pomegranate is used in Persian cooking. If you haven't tried Persian dishes using pomegranate, then you're missing out. Faisinjan is a chicken and pomegrante sauce. It's something you need to try when it's homemade. There are other dishes I have yet to try.

My parents have a pomegranate tree back at home in la...I love visiting them and making special treats with promegrante.
mmmmm....
No way, people eat those things? We had a tree growing up and I thought they were just for throwing at your sisters!?
dear mr. editor-in-chief;
you can still use the mature pomegranate seeds for dyeing natural fibers, as was practiced in india and parts of the middle east. it's a more retro version of how so many knitters are dyeing yarn using koolaid!
yup!
