Pomegranate Torshak

Prep Time5 minutes
Cook Time30 minutes
Course: Snack
Cuisine: iran

Ingredients

  • 3-4 Pomegranate (sour)
  • 1 tbsp Pomegranate paste
  • 1 tsp Salt
  • a little Rock candy or sugar optional

Instructions

  • Pit the pomegranates first. Smash the arils with a masher or a hand mixer until their juice seeps out. 
  • Pour the crushed arils into a pot with some water. Put the pot on the stove. If the pomegranates are too sour, add some rock candy to reduce the sourness.
  • Taste the torshak midway. Add some salt. Add the pomegranate paste in this step as well.
    It takes 30-40 minutes for the torshak to be prepared. Once it reaches the desired thickness, where the arils stick together, turn the heat off.
