Description

Dried sour cherry is the fruit of the Prunus cerasus, a variety of cherry known for its intensely sour and refreshing flavor. After a dehydration process, these cherries concentrate their flavor and their texture becomes firmer, making them an ideal ingredient for recipes that seek to provide a sweet and sour touch at the same time.

The origin of the sour cherry is found mainly in temperate regions of Europe and North America, where they are traditionally cultivated for fresh consumption and processing into food products. Dehydration allows them to be preserved for longer and used year-round in various culinary preparations.

Regarding their properties, dried sour cherries are rich in antioxidants, especially anthocyanins, which help combat oxidative stress. Furthermore, they provide dietary fiber and have low caloric content, making them a healthy option to incorporate into desserts, salads, savory dishes, and nut mixes.

In different Spanish-speaking countries, dried sour cherries can be found under names such as dried morello cherry, dehydrated sour cherry, or simply dried cherry.
