POMEGRANATE GRANITA
Granita is a cool, sorbet like desert. I'm slightly addicted to granita's and I had one pomegranate left at home so this is what I made with it. Basically it's one pomegranate per person if you would like a descent size desert. The original recipe was found on http://fooddownunder.com/ but it has been dramatically modified

Steps:
- Slice off the top and bottom of the pomegranates, then break them apart and remove the seeds. With your hands, squeeze all of the juice out of the seeds, then push the mixture through a sieve, pressing down gently to extract as much juice as possible without pushing the bitter skins through.
- Discard the seeds. In a large shallow glass baking dish that will fit in your freezer, combine the juice with the sugar and stir until the sugar has dissolved (place the pan over a very low flame if desired to speed the dissolving of the sugar). Freeze for 4 hours, stirring every 15 minutes.
- Scrape the surface of the ice with a spoon into large flaky crystals.
- Refreeze if desired. The granita should be served as a chunky ice, not a smooth sorbet.

[email protected]The granita was easy to make, but it took a while to freeze. I had to wait about 4 hours before it was ready to serve.

[email protected]The granita was a bit too tart for my taste, but I think that's because I used fresh pomegranates. Next time, I'll use frozen ones and see if that makes a difference.

[email protected]The granita was easy to make and only required a few ingredients. I used fresh pomegranates, but I think frozen ones would work just as well. I also added a bit of honey to sweeten it up, but that's optional.

[email protected]This pomegranate granita was a delightful treat! The flavors were bright and refreshing, and the texture was smooth and icy. I loved the combination of sweet and tart, and the pomegranate seeds added a nice crunch. It was the perfect way to cool down
