How to quickly peel a pomegranate without splashing: a useful life hack

Experts recommend eating an incredibly healthy fruit – pomegranate – to everyone without exception. You can make juice from it, but it's better to eat it like this. Salads and desserts are also often garnished with pomegranate seeds. But for all the advantages of this product, there is one disadvantage: how to clean it so as not to stain everything around with juice.

Food blogger Natasha Nikandrova shared a useful life hack on Instagram that will help you easily peel a pomegranate without splashing in just 5 minutes.

The girl recommends pouring cool water into a bowl, cutting off the top of the pomegranate, making cuts where the partitions are, and opening and peeling the pomegranate in water. All the grains will remain at the bottom, and all the debris will float away.
