These canapés uses dried apricots as the base for the recipe. Not only do dried apricots pack a lot of flavor into a small bite, they contain a host of great nutrients as well. All apricots are naturally high in fiber and beta-carotene, but dried apricots possess even more potassium and iron than their fresh counterparts, by weight. The drying process concentrates the nutrients and makes them especially sweet.
Be sure to use naturally dried apricots, which are tend to be browner than their brilliant orange countrparts, which have been treated with sulfur dioxide gas during processing to increase their shelf life and preserve their bright color. Those with asthma can be particularly sensitive to sulfites, so best to avoid them.
