Every Date Variety Explained In 14 Minutes |Classify the types of expensive dates| Plant Foods

Dates are more varied than the familiar brown fruit in a supermarket box. In this 14-minute guide, we explore eight varieties: Deglet Noor, Medjool, Barhi, Sukkari, Mabroom, Ajwa, Mazafati and Piarom. Travel from North Africa through Arabia to Iran and discover why some dates are crunchy and golden, while others are dark, soft and creamy. See how ripeness changes Barhi, why Medjool demands careful farm work, and why Mazafati belongs in the fridge. We also look at flavour, texture, cultural meaning and the reasons prices differ. If you enjoy learning how plant foods are grown and eaten, this tour offers a useful place to start. These plant foods are not interchangeable: each has its own character. Which would you try first?
