Sun Dried Apricots: A Glimpse of History

Apricots are fantastic fruit trees and our ancestors discovered their value millennia ago. Archeological evidence shows that humans have been enjoying these delicious treats for over 7000 years. Dried Apricots from Food To Live allow you to continue this tradition and get the numerous benefits the fruits have to offer.

It's impossible to determine where exactly apricots originated from because these species are too widespread. The majority of botanists believe that their homeland is Armenia. At least, it's a widely accepted fact that the name 'apricot' is derived from the variations of this country's name.

The Many Uses of Apricot Fruit

Ripe, raw apricots are extremely delicious and a joy to eat for everyone. However, this plant has a variety of other uses. Apricot seeds, in particular, contain laetrile.

Apricots oil is widely used in cosmetics and can be added to a variety of homemade beauty treatments. It doesn't have many culinary uses, but mostly because there are many other plant-oil alternatives

Apricots are loved all over the world, but in the Eastern they are almost revered. There is even a saying in Turkey that roughly translates as 'there is no better than this' where 'this' is 'apricot'. Unfortunately, the season of these fantastic fruits ends very fast and they don't really keep well, unlike apples or pears.

However, you can enjoy Food To Live Dried Apricots anytime.

Dried Apricots: Benefits

Sun dried apricots from Food To Live offer a great number of benefits to people who eat them regularly. Not only are they fantastically delicious but also rich in all kinds of important elements.

In the terms of appearance, apricot fruit is the source of retinol, one of the main elements used in the cosmetics industry.

You should definitely try some apricot jam, paste, or cake. However, you shouldn't forget that sugar isn't good for the body, so it's best to choose recipes that don't contain much of it. There are plenty of those for apricots as these fruits are naturally sweet. In fact, you can make an amazing dried apricot paste by combining them with some figs and warm water in a blender.

Dried Apricots Calories

One cup of dried apricots contains about 313 calories, but it also gives you almost 10 grams of dietary fiber and 4.4 grams of protein.

Dried Apricots: Nutrition Profile Breakdown

Nutritional value of dried apricots is extremely high, which is the reason why this fruit is so amazing. A single cup of these sweet treats contains 94% of the required daily dose of vitamin A.

Dried Apricots: Iron

The thing that makes sun dried apricots truly fantastic is their high content of non-heme iron. It must be noted that dried fruits have a higher level of it than their fresh counterparts. Therefore, they can be considered more beneficial in this particular matter.

Dried apricots definitely make one of the best choices for this as the iron in them is easy for the body to absorb, so you actually get to benefit from it. Note that naturally, iron is processed easier when consumed with vitamin C.

As dried apricots contain vitamin C by default, the iron from them can be absorbed very well regardless of whether you add some other foods to your meal.

Magnesium and calcium

Dried apricots contain two invaluable minerals. They are magnesium and calcium.

Note that potassium, another valuable mineral that dried apricots contain in large quantities, affects the way our bodies process calcium. This mineral is extremely difficult to absorb, so even eating calcium-rich foods might not give you a sufficient amount of it. Potassium helps the body absorb as well as dispose of calcium in the most efficient manner.

Enjoying Sun Dried Apricots

The abundance of dried apricots recipes provides that everyone can learn to love them. In fact, you don't even have to follow a specialized recipe as simply adding this ingredient to many traditional dishes would work. For example, try including them into a veggie stew, spiced rice, or cereal.

At Food To Live, we enjoy these dried fruits in many ways, and this is one of the favorites:

  • 1 eggplant (diced)
  • 1 sweet potato (diced)
  • 2 zucchini (halved and sliced into half-moons)
  • 4 cloves garlic
  • 1 red pepper (diced)
  • 1 onion (sliced)
  • 1 can chopped tomatoes (14 oz)
  • 14 oz chickpeas (cooked)
  • 3 ½ oz dried apricots
  • 1 tablespoon harissa paste
  • 1 teaspoon cumin (ground)
  • 1 teaspoon coriander (ground)
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • A handful of fresh coriander leaves (chopped)
  • Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions:
  1. Put eggplant, sweet potato, zucchini, and pepper into a bowl. Season with salt and pepper, and sprinkle with 2 spoonfuls of olive oil. Toss so that all vegetable cubes are coated.
  2. Heat up a large non-stick pan and fry the veggies (do this in batches if necessary). They must be lightly golden.
  3. Heat up a casserole (lidded) and pour the rest of the oil into it. Fry the onions at medium heat until soft and then add garlic and spices.
  4. Add tomatoes, honey, apricots, chickpeas, and harissa paste into the casserole and stir. Add the fried veggies and cook for 3 minutes.
  5. Close the lid and put the casserole into a pre-heated oven (375F). Cook for 30 minutes.
  6. Take out your casserole and add a glass of water into the mix. Stir and put back into the oven for another 15 minutes.
  7. Sprinkle with coriander and serve cold or hot.
If you put this dish into the freezer, it can keep for up to two months.


Dried Apricots: Buy in Bulk or Make Your Own

It's possible to dry apricots on your own. To do this, you'll need lots of fresh and ripe apricots and a lot of time. The fruits must be washed, pitted, and halved before you begin. Then you just put the halves onto suitable sheets and use a dehydrator or an oven to dry them. Note that it would take no let than 12 hours to dry a bunch of apricots, so it's a highly energy consuming process.

You can save yourself all this trouble by buying Food To Live Dried Apricots in bulk. Store them in a cool place (fridge is best) and in an airtight container so they can keep for months.
