Apricot

Apricots are a juicy fruit that belongs to the peach family. They grow on trees and have a fuzzy skin with a sweet, tangy flesh inside. Apricots are commonly used in cooking and baking to add a burst of flavour.

To make apricot products like jam or dried apricots, the fruits are picked when ripe and then processed. They can be dried in the sun or by using special dehydrating machines. In jam-making, the apricots are cooked down with sugar to create a thick, sweet spread.

Apricots are often used in various foods to enhance their taste and texture. You can find them in jams, desserts like apricot tarts, and even savoury dishes such as tagines. They provide a natural sweetness and a delightful fruity flavour. Additionally, apricots contain fibre and essential vitamins, making them a nutritious choice for your diet.
