Popular in so many dishes from the eastern Mediterranean like muhammara and sfiha, it is also used in salad dressings. The Lebanese favourite fattoush, wouldn’t be complete without it. If you’re pan frying duck breasts, add a tablespoon to the pan juices at the end to make a delicious gravy.
To make the most of your purchase, why not try adding it to blueberries, to provide a bit of “zing” in a blueberry compote. If your kitchen cupboard has other flavours from the eastern Mediterranean, have a look at our pomegranate molasses sweet treat recipe to make an Ottolenghi inspired tea time tray bake. See our recipes for suggestions, experiment with your favourite dishes, the combinations are endless.

This is the most delicious pomegranate molasses I have ever tasted – as a obsessive lover of the sharp and sweetness that pomegranate molasses brings to so much of my cooking I wasn’t expecting the divine rounded flavour that this molasses brings to a recipe. I drizzled it over vanilla ice cream last night and over my porridge this morning! I can’t get enough of it.

These Molasses are delicious!!! I first tried them at the Whiteladies Market and bought some later that day. Utterly amazing on bread and in salads. I would choose 10 stars if I could!
