Dry dates, known locally as chhuhara or khaarak, are made by boiling fresh Aseel dates and drying them in the sun until they are hard and wrinkled. This traditional method keeps the fruit for a long time without cold storage.
Dry dates are widely used in South Asian sweets, milk drinks, cooking, religious festivals and weddings. We supply them whole, graded by size and colour, in bags or cartons.
Fresh Aseel dates are boiled and then sun-dried until hard, which gives them a long shelf life.
18 to 24 months in dry storage.
