|
| This makes a wonderful gift. It is delicious over lamb, as in our Grilled Leg of Lamb with Pomegranate Molasses , or over chicken or pork. It is even quite a treat drizzled over vanilla ice cream! |

|
| Ingredients |
|
4 cups pomegranate juice
1/2 cup sugar
1 tablespoon lemon juice
|
|
|
|
Steps
|
|
|
|
|
| 1 | Combine all ingredients in saucepan or deep skillet (a wider diameter will allow it to reduce more quickly). |
| |
2 | Bring to a boil, then immediately reduce to a simmer. Cook for 30-45 minutes, until reduced to 1.75 cups. The time will vary greatly depending on the size of your pan. The consistency should be that of warm honey or chocolate syrup - it will thicken quite a bit as it cools. If you find it is not thick enough when cooled, you can heat again until desired consistency is reached. |
| |
3 | Store in the refrigerator in a sealed jar or bottle. |
|
|
| Notes
|
Yields about 1.75 cups.
