Apricots: Golden Pearls of Summer
Apricots are the velvety treasures of summer - orange-gold, sweet and full of the warmth of the sun. These delicate fruits require perfect timing when harvesting for that optimal balance of sweetness and texture.
🍑 Perfect Harvest Moment
Pick apricots when they:
- Are fully orange colored
- Give slightly to gentle pressure
- Have a sweet fragrance
- Come away easily from the branch
🧊 Short Storage, Quick Processing
Apricots keep for 3-5 days at room temperature. For longer storage: preserve, dry or freeze.
