Faribors,

Thanks for your comment. The poem was from Sohrab Sepehri a modern Iranian poet. Sorry for my handwriting. I havn't been practicing for a while, besides, I wanted the reader to take his/her time and read the poem carefully. Best Regards.

REPLY : TO SOHRAB

As a brother of mein was named also Sohrab so i call you by your first name, not because of my impoliteness. After so many years now i know how to handle a pomegranate. I would like to ask you to bring the poem in a way readable for everybody, so also for me. The american pirates were the ones who stoll the way to grow pomegrantaes from iran. and not only this. they begann making pomegranatejouice and selling all over the world. Thanks to Blessing of the revolution one can get pomegranates nearly in every country. Besides Pomegranates are pistoucious and hand made iranian carpets also things which represent the culture and NUcs represent the modern scinces rehabilitating in that country. last not least mr. Sohrab: I dont know if teaching me the way how to go around with a pomegranate have been your best idea, but I am sure it is a very good idea of you. thank you again and Greeting

Bah Bah, Yak cheesa Taza Yada ma Dadi.

Nothing says Iran more than Pomegranate !

2 years ago, after all the bad news on TV, I started intensive gardening on the weekends. Every time I heard the war news, I planted a tree. I planted a tree almost every weekend… I have over come the news… and it has given me a lot of joy…

This year we had a lot of Pomegranates and some Olive too ...I had a very happy year despite all the bad war news...

Wish you all the best...

Midwesty and All, I just

Midwesty and All,
I just think everyone did
the "right thing" by simply IGNORING
the person on this thread who

was being disgusting , foul mouthed and obnoxious(and that's putting it mildly).
I'm glad those truly sickening comments are
gone.
One of them was directed at me.
I chose to ignore this person and so did everyone else. I'm glad.
Maybe in time and by being ignored enough times, and seeing that no one is interested even to get angry at the person, the strong message will go through...

Midwesty, You just dont get

Midwesty, You just dont get it , do you? Looser.

Kishmish,

Thanks. Dehaties are the most productive members of the society.

Tell it like it is,

My friend, I thought we were supposed to grow up after the high school!

Nazy,

I remember your article. That's true that in many parts of Iran it is a family affair. Also, one thing that I noticed is that Iranian poms. leave stronger stain than these western ones. As a matter of fact the seeds and the skin were used for dyeing the carpet’s threads for natural coloring. It is a wonderful fruit. Thanks!

Anonymously,

Thanks! Here you go, someone asked me earlier the schick style. I usually ask my guest to assum responsibility then let them touch the pom. They usually take the piece and end up eating it in their car! 

AB,

Thanks! That one was gone the moment I put the camera down. Jaye shoma khali!

KF,

I laughed hard about your comment :O) Do however you desire. The most important thing is the one on one love effair with the pom. the rest is the formality. 

Niki,

Thanks for your comment. Glad you liked it.

I think by European standard US residents are assumed dehati. I didn't know that until I read this:

Thanks! let's patent the Anarangi idea before US farmers find it out.

Anonyxous,

About the books, it is called by your dear French people "mis en scene". About my handwriting, I take it as a compliment since I always feel good when I am in touch with my feminine side. I think many women are man-er than many so-called men.

To Midwesty. What is Dehati

To Midwesty. What is Dehati to you?

Pomegranate Challenge

Thank you for that interesting demonstration! I will be sure to try it soon. It looked so exact, though, and I don't know if I'll be any good with that technique! Though we all love pomegranates, everyone has his/her own challenges in eating the fruit! Not too long ago, I wrote something about pomegranates and I was delightfully surprised to find out from my readers that in many provinces in Iran, eating pomegranates is a family affair in which spreads (sofreh) are set up and all family members young and old, sit around it, each of them eating many many pomegranates, uninhibited and primitive, not caring about the stains or their appearance during the, for lack of a better word, ritual. Imagining that family gathering felt so good to me! Thanks again for the tip.

I just cut them in half and

I just cut them in half and then doon them. Opening the 2 pieces into more pieces by hand. This is almost the same except it is divided into few more halves by a knife. Are you suggesting to give these halves to people/guests to eat? It would create a mess! I think you should doon the whole pomegranate into a bowl. Kar ra ke kard? on ke tamam kard. Once you start the mess put all the doons in a bowl. Whether you do one or more pomegranate. Good demo.

bah bah...

Just give me picture 14 ,thanks

Not knowing how to properly

Not knowing how to properly peel and "doon" an anar, I always try to "ablamboo" them.
Have had numerous accidents!
Good demo.

More like engineer style

Wow, they should give this presentation in every persian market :o) Beautiful!

Thanks, I'll try it this way

Thanks, I'll try it this way next time!
If it's dehati, then I want to be one! YAY!

style!!

ageh in peeling styleh dahatisheh..shikesh chejoorieh?!!..

Nice work

Great tutorial. The darned thing is very difficult to prepare and eat (but I love pomegranate). I wish it was as easy to eat as naarangi... Oh, wait a minute.. that is an idea... anaarangi, an anaar-naarangi hybrid :)

Shaad zi.

Putting the pomegranate next

Putting the pomegranate next to your books might stain them, you know. ... or kinda looks too staged. be natural

The hand writing was too feminine, I hope that was a woman's.... anyways...a bit too efforted
