This is a variation on a traditional Turkish dip. It was made with pomegranate molases not pomegranate juice. The juice would make it much too thin.

Way too much liquid in the form of pomegranate juice - I did not even add the full amount specified, I sensed it was probably too much liquid. Still instead of a dip it was more like a thick soup - the only way I could save it was pouring it over a coffee filter and allowing some liquid to drain off. It is a great dip, very nice flavor, but the recipe must be revised. Either use less pomegranate juice or substitute pomegranate molasses (smaller amount).
