my mom used to spoon out the seeds, and soak them in a water and sugar mixture, and then we'd eat them with a spoon.. sweet and tart .. the only thing is it will discolor your fingers

Recipe One:
TROPICAL SALAD
Romaine lettuce (broken in bite-size pieces)
Fresh spinach
Chunk pineapple (8 oz. can, no juice)
1 pomegranate seeds
1 (4 oz.) jar pine nuts
2 sliced avocados
2 fresh navel oranges, sliced
FOR DECORATION ON TOP OF SALAD:
1 sliced avocado
1 sliced star fruit
1 sliced banana
Layer the salad as follows and repeat:
Lettuce and spinach
Pomegranate seeds and pine nuts
Orange and avocado slices.
Recipe Two:
POMEGRANATE LIQUER
Pomegranates make an interesting cordial and a great substitute for red food coloring as well. Just look at that color! No wonder pomegranates are loaded with anti-oxidants.
Remove the skin and membranes from 3-4 pomegranates and put the seeds, separated, in the bottom of a quart sized canning jar. Crush the seeds with the back of the spoon. Fill the rest of the jar with vodka. Let sit about a week. Store in a sealed decanter in a cool, dark, place.
In all infusions, check the progress of things from time to time (by tasting, of course!). If the infusion is lacking flavor, leave it to steep for a longer period or start again by straining the liquid and adding a new batch of the flavoring ingredient (to the same vodka that has been already infused).
In this way, you can also add multiple layers of flavor or create new combinations by using a second flavoring ingredient the next time around.

Pomegranate seeds can be threaded onto lengths of cotton and serve as a lightweight form of jewellry when dressing casually in the tropics.
Do remember that a panama hat is only a real panama hat if it can- without damage- be rolled and pulled through a wedding ring!

The seeds are gorgeous.
They liven up any salad.
Mix with rice and veggies for a rice salad with a fruity zing.
Or just pick at them for a healthy snack.

I always sprinkle them on top of vanilla ice cream.
Also, the juice is high in antioxidants so you may want to use them for that purpose.
You can also mix them into spinach and walnut salads and then mix in a nice vinnigrette.
Maybe you could mix them into pancakes or cookie dough?
