Fruit Hunter

St. Lawrence Market is the place where I chose to buy a fruit for my next blog. This Market is one of the famous markets in Toronto. It is not only about the freshness of meats, fruits, and vegetables but it is also because of the cheap prices. This is the reason why I chose this market to go to for my research. As I walked around this market, I saw some different kinds of fruits and vegetables that is new in my eyes.

One fruit that catches my eyes is the "pomegranate". I've been always hearing this kind of fruit since then but I am not really familiar with it. This fruit is also seasonal which blooms on September to February in Northern Hemisphere. While in Southern Hemisphere, it is from March to May. It can be used making a juice, smoothie, and alcohol beverages. It is also used in cooking and baking. I choose this fruit not only because it is not familiar for me but it is interesting to try.

Pomegranate
I cut them into half using the knife but I did not know that I should just tear out the skin and not to cut them. The effect of cutting it is because there is a big possibility of cutting the seeds to.



 I also took the seeds off of the skin and just rinse it.



At first, I thought it would be just one kind of a sweet fruit. When I ate it, the sweetness and sourness of the seeds are blending. It is also a juicy seed which it make me want to try to make a smoothie some other time. Upon eating this, I thought of making these seeds as a dessert. A dessert that can be serve to special occasions which I know the kids would love it.


Melted White Chocolate
Add the pomegranate on the melted white chocolate.
Mix the white chocolate and pomegranate evenly and put it in the fridge for an hour.
And here you have it.. Pomegranate White Chocolate.

From this experience that I had, I learned that I can always turn a fruit into something else. I just need to have more imagination on how I can make it.
