Pomegranate Molasses, adds a Sweet and Tangy taste to your regular vinaigrette. Try my Pomegranate Molasses Salad Dressing Recipes, for your next salad, and guaranteed, these will become a firm favourite in your home too.
Pomegranate Molasses, is a thick dark, ruby red liquid, that has a sweet and sour/tangy taste. It is made from a special variety of pomegranates, the juices of which are boiled to reach a thick consistency. In Arabic, pomegranate molasses are known as dibs rumman, and it is common in many Arabic, as well as Mediterranean dishes.
I picked up this red ruby of a gem, an import from Lebanon, at the 2017 Good Food and Wine show in Johannesburg. I knew I wanted to use this ingredient in some dishes, and because of it’s thick concentrate consistency, I find it lasting me longer than I had expected. But, with that said, I am glad of this, as I am able to further experiment with this tangy goodness.
So, if you have a bottle of this precious liquid in your grocery pantry, allow me to show you the 2 different ways to make use of pomegranate molasses in your salad dressing.
Happy ‘Salad Dressing’ Making
