Organic Deglet Nour Dates Pitted

What Are Organic Deglet Nour Dates (Pitted)?

Dates have been consumed by humans for so long and grown in so many geographical areas we cannot actually tell where they were first cultivated, although we're pretty sure it was somewhere in the Middle East.

This is certainly testimony to their popularity as Dates have long been valued for their immense sweetness and health promoting effects and are still highly sought after to this day for the very same reasons.

They are soft, sticky and tremendously sweet sharing similarities with Figs and Prunes but with a smoother, less fibrous texture and a richer flavour than both.

Why Should I Get Organic Deglet Nour Dates (Pitted)?

Dates are an exceedingly healthy treat, being rich in calcium, sulphur, iron, potassium, phosphorous, manganese, copper and magnesium, not to mention the wealth of vitamins they possess too. Some health specialists have said that eating one date per day is necessary for a balanced and healthy diet and its not hard to see why!

As dates are so packed with fibre, they're a great choice of fruit for regulating your digestion and can be used just like prunes for their gentle laxative effect. You can consume dates in tons of ways too, but dates in particular are especially good just as they are! Our favourite thing to do with them is to make a paste and mix it with milk, yogurt or bread and butter to make them even more delicious.

Dates are particularly popular in no bake, raw desserts with a variety of preparations available to suit such purposes, like Date Syrups and Diced Dates.
