Step 3

This step is the most time consuming step but it's worth it.

Step 4

Juice the red pomegranats by cutting them in half and using a citrus juicer, this is messy so make sure do it some place easy to clean and either wear old clothes or an apron.

Step 5

You want to end up with 2 cups of juice.

Step 6

Mix the corn starch into the sugar and add to the pomegranate juice cook over a medium heat until it is thickened.

Step 7

This makes a glaze like for a strawberry or blueberry pie.

Step 8

If you bruise the seeds it will make the glaze runny and the filling will not stick together.

Step 10

Pour glazed seed mixture into the pie or tart shell.

Step 11

You can serve immediately or refrigerate for a while.

Step 12

Top with whipped cream and enjoy.
