That looks awesome, Indira. I happen to have a couple of pomegranates - just been lazy to peel it to get the fruit out. This recipe is a good motivator now! And would you happen to have a recipe for cranberry pappu?

Hi Indira,
I made this jam yesterday. I crushed the pomegranate seeds in blender and strained in tea strainer to extract the juice. Jam came out so good. It is smelling like bellam pakam but taste more like pomegranate juice. Thank you.

Thanks again for the wonderful recipes and the awesome job you do to post them.

Happy thanksgiving to you and your family.

That’s wonderful to hear. Glad that the recipe worked out for you Sudha.
Thanks and Happy Thanksgiving!
- Indira

Oh, this is dazzling! Please accept my best wishes for all the joys of the season.

Padmaja,
I love your family Thanksgiving menu too! Do you have a blog? I would be very interested in trying these recipes.

Indira,

My mom used to make pear/apple halwa for dessert on Thanksgiving. It’s like carrot halwa, using greated pears and apples, and less sugar.

Gongura, how cool!:) What are you going to prepare Anjali? Dal, chutney or any special recipe?

Sundari: cranberry seeds are usually unnoticeable unlike pomegranate.

Madhu: Cinnamon and cloves are great addition to jams, I agree.

Thanks Kaykat. Cranberry pickle, now that’s awesome.:)

Nirmala: You know neredu pandlu? They are tiny fruits, taste very tart and color the tongue purple/violet. I think they make a good substitue for cranberries.

Padmaja, Anusiram, Rajitha: Thanks for your nice notes.

Padmaja: Your mom’s thanksgiving menu sounds wonderful. What’s for dessert?:)

Thanks Kumudha and HC.

Hi Vegeyum: Yes, blender makes it easy. Few rounds and then pour the juice through a sieve. Food mill would also work.
I used a small citrus juicer. Pressed the pomegranate halves over the juicer, few twists, it was little bit messy.

Vineela: Cranberry, oranges and jaggery also make a great jam Vineela. Definitely worth a try.
Pancakes, I followed the regular box cover recipe.

Thanks Laavanya. Shubha Deepavali to you and your family!

Hi Indira, what a special post. I was wondering whether I could throw the pomegranate in the blender to extract the juice?
