Prepare for pomegranate season! (...from October to December!) This wonderfully moist bread has a pleasant taste. You'll be back for more! Its colorful slices dotted with red and green will look great during the holiday season! Read more Note: I used walnuts in the one in the photo. You need to use pistachios for the red and green...
