Dried Fruits

Dried fruits are fresh fruits that have been dried naturally (with sunlight) or industrially (with a machine) to lose all their water. Preserving fruits in this manner prevents them from rotting or spoiling. Dried fruits are one of the best and healthiest snacks, especially in the winter. Drying reduces a fruit's volume and increases its vitamin content. So if you want to buy dried fruits, don't worry about anything. 

Dried fruit has a long history dating back to prehistoric times. Fruits that dry on the tree, such as grapes and figs, are just as tasty and nutritious as fresh fruits.

Dried fruit is produced in a variety of countries, including Iran. The country has four seasons (hot, cold, and wet), producing the best fruits each season. With the most climatic and weather diversity in the Middle East, Iran has the highest fruit production rank because each city produces unique fruits based on its soil and climate. So Iran is the best option for buying dried fruit.
