The apricot is a popular drupe. It originates from northeast China. These apricots are a source of fiber.
Before sun-drying, the fruits are washed in a slightly acidic sulfur bath. This preserves the color and extends their shelf life. This process also preserves the nutrients.
Usage Apricots are good to eat regularly. Delicious as a snack, in yogurt or muesli, in stews and salads. Raw food advocates use apricots to sweeten their food without sugar. They are ground and incorporated into other products.
