Half-Dried Apricots

Why We’re Nuts About Half Dried Apricots

The “how can this be dried fruit?” fruit! Hometown: A region of Turkey where cultivating stupendous apricots are a way of life Taste: Honey sweet in flavor, springy on the outside, jammy inside (think of apricot jam, made by nature!). You’ll have trouble not dropping your jaw at first bite. Talents: Texture and taste. So plump and juicy, you won’t be able to connect the word “dried” to each morsel. Where the average apricot is rubbery, these are soft and springy because of the care our farmers take in sorting and pressing them by hand. Without a speck of added sugar, these sundried morsels are LOADED with natural sweetness and an incredible-tasting inside that’ll remind you of homemade apricot jam. Favorite activities: Picnics, adding a bright pop of flavor and color to a cheese spread and pairing with hard, sharp cheeses, making refined snacking super easy (and turning your friends into dried apricot snobs!), international travel.
