Dried white mulberry
Description
Dried white mulberry is a small, wrinkled fruit with a creamy-beige to light-brown color and a sweet, honey-vanilla flavor with a delicate nutty note. They have a soft, chewy texture and pleasant sweetness, making them a great natural addition to dishes and snacks. They are a source of fiber, vitamins (including C and some from the B group), minerals such as iron, potassium, and calcium, as well as antioxidants and flavonoids that support digestion and overall immune health; the plant-based content means they can also positively influence sugar metabolism when consumed in moderation. In the kitchen, dried mulberries are suitable for muesli, oatmeal, yogurts, salads, baked goods, smoothies, desserts, and teas, as well as adding a sweet note to sauces or cheese dishes. Store in an airtight container in a cool, dry, and dark place, and in warmer climates, it's advisable to keep them in the refrigerator; when stored properly, they maintain freshness for several months.
