Goji Berries
Goji berries are small red fruits native to Asia, particularly the mountainous regions of China and Tibet, where they have been used for centuries in traditional Chinese medicine and cuisine. These berries, also known as goji berries or wolfberries in some Hispanic American regions, are characterized by their slightly sweet flavor and soft, chewy texture.
From a nutritional standpoint, goji berries are renowned for their high antioxidant content, especially carotenoids like beta-carotene, as well as vitamins such as C and E, and minerals like iron and zinc. Their consumption is associated with benefits for eye health, the immune system, and overall energy.
In cooking, goji berries are used in both sweet and savory recipes. They can be incorporated into smoothies, salads, cereals, desserts, and also in stews or infusions. Their flavor and properties make them a versatile ingredient that adds an exotic touch and significant nutritional value to any dish.
