9 Dried Figs A sacred, symbolic and mystic fruit in ancient Greek and Roman civilizations and in holy books. Latin name of edible fig (F. carica) comes from Caria region in southwest Turkey which had been an active region both in production and trade during 1 st millennium B.C. Dried fig fruit of this superb variety are brownish in color, soft in texture, big in size and rich in nutritious aspects. Being dried naturally under sun, fruit have low water activity levels that allow longer storage and transportation under ambient conditions. Dried fig is a very low energy (sun-dried) and water (rain-fed) demanding production with very low carbon footprint and low-input (e.g. pesticides, fertilizers) use. Turkey Turkey is the main producing and exporting country of dried figs. Around 50% of world production of dried figs takes place in Turkey and almost 2/3 of dried figs exported to world has the origin of Turkey. The fame of the Turkish figs is due only to the volume in trade but also to the dried fruit quality of delicious Sarılop (also known as Calimyrna) variety. The white powder that can be seen sometimes on dried figs is a natural sign of the fructose and glucose of the fruit, it is not added from outside.

10 Health Benefits The main aspect of the apricot is its richness in fibre, vitamins and minerals and as a consequence, it is regarded as a valuable fruit and natural medicine. The apricot is rich in carotene B, which is found in vitamin A, and this vitamin is known to be a cancer fighter. Regarding minerals, the apricot has low sodium and high potassium contents, which makes it important for diet programs.

11 Dried Apricots The large area, which covers Turkistan, Middle Asia and Western China; is considered to be the motherland of apricots. Dried apricot is derived from fresh apricot, there are two types: - Natural dried apricots are dried directly under the sunlight and have a light to dark brown color. They are not treated with sulphur dioxide. - Sulphured dried apricots, which are treated with sulphur dioxide (SO 2 ) in order to provide a lighter colouring and a longer shelf life. The colouration is between light yellow and orange. Dried apricots are often consumed as a snack and after grading are also mixed with other dried fruits and nuts, as well as being an important ingredient in chocolate snacks, baked cakes and desserts and breakfast cereals. They are usually supplied whole, but can be supplied in halves or slabs. Turkey Turkey is the major producer and supplier of dried apricots. Turkish apricots are mostly produced in Malatya province known as the Dried Apricot Capital of the World.

12 Health Benefits High-energy food, providing natural sugars, potassium, fiber and tartaric acid necessary to keep digestive systems healthy. Sugar in seedless raisins is made up of fructose and glucose which is the main energy source body activities. Good source of antioxidants and digestible fibers.

13 Turkish Sultanas Turkish Sultanas come from cultivars of Vitis vinifera. One of the traditional export products of Turkey. Great snack and favored ingredient in cookies, breads, main dishes and desserts. Turkey Motherland of Sultana (syn. Sultanina, Thompson Seedless) variety. One of the leading sultana producer countries and the biggest sultana exporter in the world. Produces almost 25% of world sultanas. Exports sultanas around 90 countries in the world, mainly to the EU Countries.

14 Health Benefits Pistachios have been shown to reduce LDL (bad) cholesterol and increase the good HDL cholesterol. High in antioxidants such as vitamins A and E, they fight inflammation, protecting blood vessels and reducing risk of heart disease. Pistachios are an incredibly rich source of vitamin B6 which is essential to make hemoglobin for healthy blood. A healthy immune system requires adequate intake of vitamin B6, which pistachios abound in. Pistachios contain two carotenoids not found in most nuts. These carotenoids, called lutein and zeaxanthin function as protective antioxidants, defending tissues from damage from free radicals. Pistachios are a great source of vitamin E, a powerful fat-soluble antioxidant, essential for maintaining the integrity of cell membranes and often recommended for healthy and beautiful skin.

15 Pistachios The pistachio is one of the oldest edible nuts on earth with an antiquity of more than years. Originating from Southeast Asia, Asia Minor, Pakistan and India; Pistachio trees grow in parts of Turkey, Iran, Greece, Italy and the U.S. - areas that have long, hot summers and cool winters. The fruit of the pistachio differs from all the other nuts because of its green colour and the semi-opening of the shell. This singular morphology makes the pistachio the only edible nut which does not need to be shelled for roasting and salting, serving at its turn a natural wrapping and easy for consumption. The pistachio has a delicious flavour and a high nutritious value, being very rich in proteins and vitamins. They are always marketed in their in-shell form, roasted and salted, but they can be purchased shelled. They are mainly used as snack and confectionery and used in ice creams. Turkey Is one of the leading pistachio producer countries. Turkish Pistachios are well known with their rich and distinctive flavor and high quality. The best pistachios in Turkey come from the area around the city of Gaziantep. Turkish Antep Pistachios are one of the oldest varieties available. Smaller, less open and darker shells than other varieties, they are crunchy and savory with a touch of sweetness. The shells are a darker colour and the nuts flavor is more intense because the delicate oils were protected. Turkish Pistachios are used in ice cream, baklava, nougat, and Turkish Delight; a type of candy.
