Pomegranate Dipping Aioli

Last updated on February 23, 2019 by Liza Hawkins

One of the unsung heroes of my POM Wonderful dinner party was an impromptu dipping aioli I made to go with some fabulous roasted potatoes (recipe for those lovelies another day).

Everything in my menu contained pomegranate in some form, either the arils themselves or the juice that I hand-pressed through a sieve.

But, I just couldn’t bring myself to roast the pomegranate arils with the potatoes, and I also didn’t feel like tossing them in the juice. My alternative? Pomegranate Dipping Aioli.

  • 3 tablespoons pomegranate juice
  • 1/4 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
