Pomegranate

In Hindi : Anardana

Pomegranate is the large globes, shiny red berry of a plant that grows as a shrub or as a small tree. Inside the berry are hard, angular seeds, covered with a juicy, red, pink yellowish-white, sweet, astringent acid pulp. The seed, when sun dried or dehydrated, constitutes the condiment.

Pomegranate is an ancient fruit symbolising plenty and prosperity.

Apart from its culinary value in a wide range of foods and beverages, pomegranate is endowed with excellent medicinal properties. For example, it is often prescribed for patients convalescing from diarrhea.
