Pomegranate Molasses (Pure & Natural) 250 ml

Esila Pomegranate Molasses comes in a 250 ml pack. Inside a pomegranate, thin membranes divide the fruit into sections filled with juicy arils. The juice extracted from these arils is the raw material for pomegranate molasses. Pomegranates can have both sweet and tart notes, with the balance varying by variety. In Anatolian and Eastern Mediterranean cooking, the fruit’s juice is used to prepare pomegranate molasses, starting with the arils found beneath the rind.

Pomegranate molasses is among the ingredients used for tart flavour in Anatolian and Eastern Mediterranean cooking. In a culinary tradition that also uses lemon and sumac, it brings the fruit’s characteristic notes to the table. It often appears in recipes featuring bulgur, parsley, tomatoes and walnuts, with herbs and spices varying across regions. Esila, a brand with 30 years of preparing plant-based products in Hatay İskenderun, offers pomegranate molasses for these dishes.

Mix pomegranate molasses with olive oil in a separate bowl, then add the dressing to your salad. When preparing Turkish bulgur salad, stir it into the bulgur alongside the other dressing ingredients to distribute it throughout the dish. It can also be drizzled over roasted vegetable meze before serving. Alternatively, serve the dressing separately for guests to add at the table. If your recipe also includes lemon, taste the mixture and adjust the balance to suit your preference.
