Pomegranates have been grown in California since the days of the Spanish missions. Which seems like a decent enough excuse to visit the biggest collection of pomegranates in North America and discuss recipes. (Rachael Myrow/KQED)

Pomegranate season has begun. It’s a favorite fruit for holiday tables, as beautiful as it is delicious. They’ve been grown in California since the days of the Spanish missions and are eaten in many different food traditions. We visit the biggest collection of pomegranates in North America and talk to several California chefs.
