Pomegranate Vinaigrette Recipe

Recipe Type: Salad Dressing, Condiments, Diet, Pomegranate
Yields: 1 cup
Prep time: 15 min
Cook time: 10 min


Ingredients:

Pomegranate Juice1 cup pomegranate juice*
1/2 teaspoon granulated sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon good-quality aged Balsamic Vinegar
1 teaspoon extra-virgin olive oil

* Be sure you’re buying 100% pomegranate juice, as some juices advertised as pomegranate juice are a blend of apple or grape juices with a small percentage of the more expensive pomegranate juice. POM is an excellent brand, but there are also other brands that are pure pomegranate juice.


Preparation:

In a small stainless steel or non-reactive saucepan over high heat, boil the pomegranate juice until reduced to 1/3 cup, approximately 9 or 10 minutes. Remove from heat.

While still warm, stir in the sugar, salt, balsamic vinegar, and olive oil; set aside to cool.

Yields 1 cup vinaigrette.
