The pomegranate molasses is done when it has a syrupy consistency and coats the bottom of the pot.

Cut the orange into supremes by removing the top and bottom, then peeling the skin and white pith.

15

In a jar or bowl, combine 1/4 cup of pomegranate molasses, 1 tablespoon of honey, and 1 tablespoon of red wine vinegar.

16

Add olive oil to the dressing and whisk to combine, noting it won't fully emulsify.
