Dried Apricot

Dried Apricots are apricot fruits that have been dehydrated to preserve them and concentrate flavor, commonly used in Middle Eastern, Mediterranean and baking cuisines as a sweet, chewy ingredient. They are prized for their long shelf life and intense sweetness, and appear in both savory tagines and sweet compotes as well as snacks. Dried apricots provide a concentrated amount of fiber — 7.3g per 100g — along with small amounts of protein and very little fat, and they also deliver potassium and vitamin E compared with many other dried fruits. Because the drying process concentrates sugars and calories, they are an energy-dense snack rather than a low-calorie fruit; at the same time they contribute useful minerals and some antioxidant compounds, so they can be a nutritious addition in moderation.
