So I think I found pomegranate molasses. I need 5 batches for the recipe for a rib cook I'm doing ... can't mess this one up.
Couple of concerns ... the recipe says in brackets concentrated juice. Look at how thick this stuff is .... ?
The bottles were dusty and the stuff is brown, not red like I was expecting. I cracked one bottle and tasted. It doesn't taste bad ... tastes like pomegranate flavored light molasses.
You're supposed to mix the glaze part, then marinate the ribs in it 15 mins to 8 hours, brush remainder on periodically while cooking.
Looking at the thickness of the stuff I bought I'm thinking it's either too thick, the wrong stuff or the author really meant juice, not molasses.
Did I get pomegranate molasses?
Does it sound like its still good given my description?
Looking at the recipe would you use it? Perhaps thin it with some water/vinegar or even fruit juice?
