About Dry apricot

Dry apricots are dehydrated versions of the juicy, orange fruit native to Central Asia and the Mediterranean region. They are packed with nutrients, including dietary fiber, potassium, iron, and vitamins A and E. The drying process intensifies their natural sweetness, making them a popular snack and ingredient in Middle Eastern, Mediterranean, and South Asian cuisines. Known for their rich, tangy flavor, dry apricots are commonly used in baking, trail mixes, and savory dishes like tagines. From a health perspective, they promote digestion, support eye health, and help maintain blood pressure due to their high potassium content. However, they are calorie-dense and may contain added sugars or sulfur dioxide preservatives, so portion control and label-checking are key. Enjoy them as a naturally sweet treat or a versatile ingredient in a balanced diet.
