Pomegranate molasses

[kia027]

My newest discovery. Apparently used a lot in middle eastern foods. Discovered it next to the other molasses.
It is a reduction of pomegranates to a thick liquid. Sweet and Tart. Would be a good addition to a barbecue sauce

Turkish Millet With Garden-Fresh Greens

If millet to you means bird seed, you're missing out. It's an excellent whole grain with a toasty flavor that cooks quickly, and is rich in nutritional goodies including protein, B vitamins, calcium, iron and potassium. This recipe is a bit more complicated than many I provide for Meatless Monday, but it's a flavor party in your mouth, and you can cook the millet a few days in advance.


1 cup millet
2-1/2 cups water or vegetable broth
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 large onion, chopped
4 garlic cloves, sliced thin
1-2 teaspoons red pepper flakes (or 1 or 2 dried red peppers, crumbled)
1 big bunch greens (kale, chard, whatever's green and fresh), washed, drained and chopped
1/3 cup fresh dill, chopped fine
3/4 cup walnuts, toasted and coarsely chopped
1 15-ounce can diced tomatoes
2 tablespoons tomato paste
1/2 cup pomegranate molasses *
1 teaspoon coriander
sea salt and pepper
1 bunch cilantro, chopped

Bring broth or water to boil in a large saucepan. Add millet. Cover and reduce heat to low. Simmer for 20 minutes, or until millet absorbs all the liquid.

Fluff millet with a fork and set aside to cool. Millet may be cooked a day or two in advance. Cover and refrigerate millet).

Heat oil over medium-high heat in a large pot. Add chopped onions, sliced garlic and red pepper. Stir for about 8 minutes, or until vegetables are softened and fragrant.

Add chopped greens and dill. Stir until greens are wilted, another 3 to 5 minutes.

Add chopped walnuts, millet and canned tomatoes, stirring gently to keep the millet light. Work in tomato paste and pomegranate molasses. Add coriander and season with salt and pepper.

Recipe may be made ahead two days ahead at this point and heated through just before serving.

Stir in fresh cilantro before serving.

Serves 6 to 8.
