Pomegranate Masghati

Pomegranate Masghati

This beautiful pomegranate dessert is served to celebrate Yalda, the Iranian celebration of the winter solstice. Think of masghati as a cross between Jell-O and panna cotta. It's infinitely more refined and delicate than Jell-O and not quite as wobbly as panna cotta. Prepare pomegranate masghati a few hours in advance, and serve chilled out of the fridge for a light and refreshing dessert.

Ingredients

  • 3 cups no-sugar-added pomegranate juice, divided (see Tip)

  • 6 tablespoons cornstarch

  • ⅓ cup sugar, plus more as needed

  • 1 tablespoon rose water (Optional)

  • ¼ cup pomegranate seeds, plus more for garnish

  • ¼ cup chopped or slivered raw pistachios, for garnish

  • 1 tablespoon ground dried rose petals, for garnish
