Pomegranate Arils or Seeds that are Sun-dried hold a lot of importance in culinary terms. These are absolutely beautiful and incorporated into much delightful cooking by the chefs.
And nothing much complicated at all. All you need is a good amount of Sunlight in your home. Just spread them out in a tray on the terrace or the window sills whichever is convenient for you. Dry them for a good 4-5 days. Store them in clean and dry airtight containers after grinding them to a powder. Bright hot Summers are a must for this and when it is high time that we say bye to the Season, these goodies are a testimony to that efforts we put in. And finally we have them ready. Sun drying is a great option and technique to store many a goodies in June and that's why it is the Month of innumerable such delightful one's for me.
Many delightful barbeque preparations are incomplete without it. Kababs are a great treat with these Anardana especially the Chapli Kababs from Peshawar. This can also be used in various Chaats, Dahi Bhallas, Pakoras, etc.
The health benefits are also too many. They stabilize the Blood Sugar levels in the body. Helps in reducing Cholesterol too. Known as the Fruit of Paradise, it is indeed a refreshing boon. These are rich in antioxidants and also a rich source of Vitamins like C and K.

Steps
- 1
Remove all the arils from the pomegranates. Spread on a tray or a plate. Sun dry these for a good 4-5 days or as required.
- 2
Pomegranate kernels or arils are a bit sticky in nature even after drying. So there is absolutely no need to worry. And even while making a powder of it, it would be like coarsely crushed. That's the beauty of them. They add that perfect crunch and sourness to the dishes.
- 3
Store them in airtight containers and can be relished in innumerable dishes. Enjoy!
