Ingredients:
Directions:
1
Cook sugar undisturbed in a dry medium saucepan over medium-high until a ring around the edges is melted, about 5 minutes
2
Using a heatproof spatula, pull melted sugar in toward the center of saucepan
3
Continue to cook, pulling melted sugar into the center and reducing heat if sugar begins to smoke, until all sugar is melted and a deep caramel color, 6–8 minutes
4
Remove from heat and carefully add vinegar (it will spatter and caramel will seize)
5
Cook sauce over medium heat, stirring, until caramel dissolves; season generously with salt and pepper
6
If sauce tastes too tart, add more salt a pinch at a time to balance out
7
Let cool
8
Slice off ends from oranges; set on ends and remove skins and white pith
9
Slice oranges crosswise into 1/4"-thick rounds
10
Place in a large bowl; add pomegranate seeds and sauce and toss to coat
