Arpita Sahni · Answer

Honestly, during pregnancy, I just stuffed them in my mouth directly from the packet when I was too tired to cook. Just wash them first!

I loved adding them to my yogurt bowls! 😋 Just ensure they are organic and preservative-free.

Priya Banerjee · Answer

Eat them normally like any dry fruit, but don't overeat. Soak them in water overnight if you feel they are hard to digest.

I have been wanting to try dried apricots too. Do we need to soak them or can we eat them dry?

Ishita Tiwari · Answer

You can have dried apricots but make sure to wash them thoroughly. Limit it to 2-3 a day as they are high in sugar.
