Dried Fruit
Fruit with 75% to 85% of the moisture removed, those commonly found include apricots, raisins, cherries, peaches, pears, apples, prunes, dates, figs, currants, and more. Look for dried fruits domestically harvested and without added sulfites. Those grown outside the U.S. are more likely to be sprayed with dizzying amounts of pesticides. Dried fruits keep very well wrapped in plastic, then placed in another plastic container in the fridge for up to six months, sometimes even longer. Eat as is or reconstitute in simmering water for about 20 minutes.
