It took me quite a while to start enjoying rocket salads. Probably the ones that I had where not dressed to my taste. Nowadays it is definitely one of my favourite salads. Try this recipe Rocket Salad with Pomegranate Seeds, Walnuts, and Potato.
Actually rockets are so healthy, it will be good as it is, with just a pinch of salt, 2 crushed garlic cloves, some good quality olive oil and vinegar; your salad will be ready in no time. In this recipe I tried to add some color and more flavor to this gifted plant.
I know it is a burden to peel pomegranates, but when available definitely worth the effort. The already peeled ones on sale in markets can no way be the same as the ones you peel yourself. Perhaps you are lucky to have some one prepare them for you.
Among the various methods of taking out the seeds of the pomegranate I have tried, I decided on the one where you just observe the fruit. Cut off the top and bottom. Cut into half and gently peel the white parts and the seeds will come out easily. Watch this video. Make sure you cut from the part where there are white peels. The method of cutting into half and patting on top makes too much of a mess and crushes the pomegranate seeds.
I suggest you to tear up the rocket leaves to bite size pieces with your hands. But if you have young people you are trying to introduce rocket to, it might be a better idea to cut to thin slices. Enjoy this delicious, salad alone or with fish. If any of the ingredients are not available, you can still go ahead and try. The taste of rocket is very strong, so it will cover up the missing item.
