Description

Unsweetened dried blueberries are fruits of Vaccinium, a small bluish berry that, after being carefully dehydrated, retains its characteristic flavor but without the addition of sugars or sweeteners. These dried blueberries maintain a slightly chewy texture and a naturally tart and sweet flavor, ideal for adding a healthy and tasty touch to various culinary preparations.

Originally from temperate regions of the northern hemisphere, such as North America and Europe, blueberries have been appreciated since ancient times for their benefits and versatility. Dehydration without sugar allows you to enjoy their nutritional properties for longer without the extra calories that added sugars provide.

Properties: they are rich in antioxidants, especially flavonoids and vitamin C, which helps reduce inflammation and improve cardiovascular health. In addition, they provide dietary fiber, which promotes digestion and the feeling of satiety, and contain few calories due to the absence of added sugars.

In different regions of Latin America, unsweetened dried blueberries may also be known as unsweetened dehydrated blueberries, dried blueberries, or simply dried blueberries when it is specified that they contain no added sugar. Their use is ideal in recipes for desserts, salads, breads, smoothies, or as a healthy snack.
