• Combine the pomegranate juice, sugar, corn syrup, and butter in a medium-size heavy saucepan. Cook over medium heat, swirling the pan occasionally, for about 12 minutes, or until the mixture registers 305°F on an instant-read thermometer and is caramel in color. Remove the pan from the heat and immediately (and very carefully) whisk in the pine nuts, salt, and baking soda. Pour the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet (the mixture will spread out on its own). Allow the brittle to cool completely; then break into pieces and enjoy. The brittle will keep for several days in an airtight tin if you live in an area with low humidity.
