[Sca-cooks] Pomegranate Molasses

[Euriol of Lothian]

Or perhaps the strawberries were preserved from the previous spring?

I actually did a redaction on this particular recipe about a year and half ago, but that I have at home and I'm here at work.
But I do recall that wine was mentioned in the recipe... could the strawberries have been preserved in that?

*****************************************
Strawberries are a summer fruit. Pomegranates generally ripen in Autumn. 
The climate around here is pretty similar to the Mediterranean, and you
usually do get pomegranates in Autumn. I'm not sure if they grow in cooler
climates, but if they do, they certainly wouldn't appear earlier in the
year. Since the strawberries certainly wouldn't last until Autumn (unless
they were very late strawberries), the pomegranate seeds must have been
preserved from the previous Autumn.
