The Modern Gal has for months been reading about how pomegranates are the miracle fruit with health benefits galore. And after long delay, I had my first pom tea for dinner tonight, and let me tell you, it is fabulous. Kind of like raspberry or cranberry’s tart sister.

Now I can’t wait to try pom on everything: pom salsa, pom salmon or pom oatmeal cookies. And of course, there’s the obvious pomtini. Veal scallops pom marsala cream sauce may have to wait until later, though.
