Pomegranates are the jewels of fall but so many people do not get to enjoy them because their treasure is locked inside and hard to uncover. October and November is when the cash crop arrives in bulk. Buy several of these beautiful fruit to complement an arrangement, use some to display open and others to remove the seeds and have scattered about the table in small bowls. They resemble rubies and have a deliciously delicate flavor. To remove the seeds, cut the pomegranate in half, submerge the fruit in water in a large bowl. Dig into the fruit with your fingers releasing the seeds from the white membranes inside. Once you have finished, the seeds will sink to the bottom allowing the membranes to float to the top. Skim off membranes, strain the seeds and serve in a beautiful bowl.
