Carefully cut the pomegranate along the edges. Don't cut too deep! You should only cut the skin of the pomegranate, don't go in too deep and cut through the seeds.
Fill a big bowl with water. If you want to play it safe, you rather choose a bowl that doesn't stain (e.g. a glass bowl).
Plunge the pomegranate into the bowl of water and open it up along the pre-cut edges. Remove the pomegranate seeds under water and let them sink to the bottom of the bowl.
Some small white pomegranate bits remain swimming on the water's surface. Fish them out with a sifter.
Then drain the water and catch the pomegranate seeds in a big sifter.
