Dried Fruits

Dried fruits are fresh fruits that have been dried naturally (with the sunlight) or industrially (with a machine) to lose almost all of their water. This is a method of preserving fruits so that they do not rot or spoil. Dried fruits are one of the best and healthiest snacks to eat, especially in the winter. The fruit's volume decreases as it dries, and its vitamins become more concentrated.

Dried fruit has a long history dating back to prehistoric times. They discovered that fruits like grapes, figs, and others that dry on the tree are just as tasty as fresh fruit and just as good for health.

Dried fruit is produced in a variety of countries, including Iran. As Iran is a four-season country, the best fruits are produced there throughout the year. Each city in Iran is famous for producing special fruits based on its specific soil and climate, which is why Iran, with the most climatic and weather diversity in the Middle East, has the highest fruit production rank.
