Nutritional Facts
Drying preserves fruit, even in the absence of refrigeration and significantly lengthens its shelf life. When fresh fruit is unavailable, impractical or out of season, dried fruit can provide an alternative. It is often added to baking mixes and breakfast cereals. Like fresh fruit, dried fruit can be rich in vitamins (A, B1, B2, B3, B6, pantothenic acid) and dietary minerals (calcium, iron, magnesium, phosphorus, potassium, sodium, copper, manganese). Since dehydration may result in water loss up to seven parts out of eight, dried fruit has a stronger flavor than its fresh counterpart. It takes about eight pounds of fresh fruit to make one pound of dried fruit. Ocean Spray made the raisins famous by drying cranberries and adding sugar to make them plump and sweet. Dried fruit can also be infused with fruit concentrate, like at Kariba Farms. Some dried fruit can be enjoyed without adding any sugar or fruit concentrate, including mangos and cherries.
