Dried Apricots Our apricots are grown in the Euphrates valley, near Malatya in Turkey, on one of the first organic farming projects we got involved with, so we've got a real soft spot for them. Dried in the traditional way under the hot sun, without using any nasty Sulphur dioxide as a preservative, they have a rich, intense flavour and a lovely naturally dark colour. Delicious as a snack, cereal topping or baking ingredient, they require no pre-soaking and can be added to meals for extra "can I have some more please"!
