Dried Black Plum (Aloo Khaki)

A closer look at Dried Black Plum (Aloo Khaki)

Aloo khaki — the small, dark Persian plum — turns wonderfully rich when dried: a deep, mellow sweetness balanced by gentle tartness. Narmila dries whole plums slowly to preserve their soft texture and full flavour.

A staple of Persian home cooking, it is equally at home in a bowl on the table as it is simmered into hearty stews and traditional rice dishes.

Popular uses

• Snacking straight from the bowl
• Classic Persian stews
• Compotes and warm desserts
• Energy-boosting trail mixes
