Sandi and Hugh first made this simple yet spectacular salad a few years back, and it stayed with me. I make it every now and then, especially when there's a nice piece of cheese. Today was such an occasion. Austin's Central Market had fresh mozzarella and beautiful pomegranates, and the dish followed from there.
For a primer on seeding a pomegranate, see The Shiksa in the Kitchen. I used method 1.
