Another one for the weekly theme. I grew up calling these fruits "pomegranate", but Miriam knows them as "wine apples" - it's a rather more poetic name, don't you think?
Thanks for all your comments over the past few days, I really appreciate them all.
I love pomegranates! Gorgeous red colour, faved! :) And for us, it's actually literally "granate apple", with only one letter difference between the word for the red precious stone (granaatti) and a hand grenade (kranaatti). The previous, obviously, being half the name of the fruit. So there's always room for a bit of word play in Finnish with this fruit. ;)
Lovely high key..so clear and yummy....I did a simple pud using sliced peeeld oranges, dates pulled to pieces, pomegranate seeds and a dusting of cinnamon, very Christmassy somehow!! Wine apples is a wonderful name I wonder where that originated
@fannyb Fanny, I googled it and that wasn't very much help! There is actually an apple called a wine apple, and an American non-fiction writer, but no pomegranate. Em... more research to be done...
