  • What are dates?

    The date is a unique fruit, enjoyed in three states of ripeness. When fully ripe but still firm, it is bright yellow or red, refreshingly crunchy, juicy and moderately sweet. As it further ripens, it gradually softens, starting from the top all the way down to calyx. The date looks partly firm and yellow or red, and partly moist and brown and almost translucent. Then the entire fruit becomes soft, loses its crunchiness and tastes even sweeter and more succulent. If left on the tree to dry naturally in the sun, its skin shrivels and darkens in colour. The date develops a candy-like chewy texture. Technically, the date can be labelled as fresh when eaten right after it has been picked, but since it is really at its driest stage, it is labelled dried. In this state, it is stored and transported throughout the world, and commercially marked as soft, semi-dry or dry, depending on the date variety.
