Sour dried plums, also known as salted or pickled plums, originate from various Asian cuisines, particularly Chinese and Japanese culinary traditions. These tangy snacks are made by preserving fresh plums with salt, sometimes incorporating sugar or additional spices to enhance flavor. The resulting treat has a chewy texture and an intensely sour taste, making it a popular choice for snacking or cooking. Nutritionally, sour dried plums are low in fat and provide small amounts of fiber, vitamins, and minerals, such as potassium. However, they are typically high in sodium due to the salting process, so they should be consumed in moderation, especially for individuals monitoring their salt intake. Sour dried plums are often enjoyed as a palate cleanser, flavor enhancer for stews, or simply as a zesty snack. Their bold, unique flavor pairs well with both sweet and savory dishes.
