How do you select apricots?

  • Look for well-colored, plump apricots with a fairly firm texture. Avoid fruit with blemishes, soft or mushy spots or that appear pale yellow or greenish yellow in color.

How do you prepare apricots?

  • Apricots can be enjoyed fresh, sliced into salads, or blended into smoothies. They’re also perfect for baking into pies, tarts, or muffins, and their tangy flavor shines when made into jams or dried for snacking. To prepare, simply wash, halve, and remove the pit before using in your favorite recipes.

How do you store apricots?

  • Store a firm apricot at room temperature until it yields to gentle pressure. Store ripe fruit in plastic bag in the refrigerator crisper or drawer away from vegetables, for up to two days.
