Ingredients

1 .25 oz unflavored gelatin packet
4 oz Pomegranate Juice
1 cup vegetable oil chilled
1 tbsp salt

Instructions

Place vegetable oil in freezer a few hours prior to starting caviar.
Mix gelatin packet and 1.5 ounces cold pomegranate juice together until gelatin is well combined.
Microwave 2.5 ounces pomegranate juice for 30 seconds. Add to gelatin and mix well until all the gelatin is dissolved. Set aside for about 5 minutes, until mixture cools down (about room temperature).
Now you need two containers, one larger than the other to make an ice bath. Metal works best for this since it will cool better and faster. In the larger container add ice cubes, salt, and cold water and mix. Place smaller container in ice bath and add vegetable oil.
Using a pipette, drop gelatin mixture into vegetable oil. Do this slowly, about 4-5 drops per caviar. You will know it's done because it will start to sink. Make sure to spread out where you are making the caviar because if the sphere are too close together and haven't set they will combine together.
After the caviar has set for 2-3 minutes you can remove it from the oil. Strain caviar and put in an airtight container, covered with vegetable oil. Rinse off oil when ready to use.

Notes

For the nutritional information on this recipe, I calculated 1 tsp vegetable oil for any residual oil that may remain on caviar.
