Pomegranate Molasses

Pomegranate Molass is a tart, sweet syrup made by reducing pomegranate juice (often with added sugar and a touch of lemon) and is commonly used in Middle Eastern and Mediterranean cooking as a glaze, dressing ingredient or finishing sauce. It is a concentrated product and contains about 68g of sugar per 100g. Nutritionally it is low in protein and fiber but provides concentrated flavor and some minerals and phytochemicals from pomegranate. While it is prized for its rich taste and can add antioxidant-rich pomegranate polyphenols to dishes, its high sugar concentration means it’s best used sparingly as a flavoring rather than a staple ingredient.
