Nutritional Benefits

Fruits like apricots, pears, nectarines, peaches, honey plums, prunes, dates, jumbo raisins, and figs are all commonly available in dried form and offer numerous health benefits. Firstly, dried fruits contain a concentrated amount of vitamins, minerals and antioxidants. This means that a small serving can provide a significant portion of your daily recommended intake of these essential nutrients. For example, just one cup of dried apricots provides over 50% of the recommended daily intake for vitamin A and around 9% for iron. Additionally, dried fruit is an excellent source of fiber, which is important for maintaining a healthy digestive system and can also help with weight management.

Storage

Dried fruits are prepared by ensuring that excess moisture is removed. This helps to concentrate the nutrients and sweetness that fruits are typically known for. In order to prolong your dried assortment of fruit’s shelf life, it is best to keep them sealed in an airtight container or bag and stored away from excessive heat or water. Freezing dried fruits is also a great way to secure freshness until you are ready to incorporate the fruit into your dishes or enjoy as a favorite snack.
