{"product_id":"dried-dragon-fruit-pitaya","title":"Dried Dragon Fruit (Pitaya)","description":"\u003cp\u003eDried dragon fruit is pitaya sliced and dried into bright pink pieces flecked with tiny black seeds. The flavour is mild and lightly sweet with a gentle tang, somewhere between a pear and a kiwi, and the seeds give a faint crunch inside the chew.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese come from the pink fleshed variety, which is where the colour comes from: a strong magenta that survives drying rather than browning off the way a lot of dried tropical fruit does. They are cut as slices rather than diced into cubes, so each piece stays recognisable when you put it on top of something.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow to use them\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nThe colour is the reason to buy these, so use it. Lay slices out on a Nowruz or Eid platter, over falooda and kulfi, or across a cake or pavlova. Chop them into granola, trail mix and energy bars, stir them through yogurt, or drop a slice into cold water, iced tea or lemonade, where it softens and tints the glass pink. On a cheese board they go with soft white cheeses. Technique tip: soak in warm water for about fifteen minutes if you want them tender enough to fold into a batter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDetails\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nIngredients: Dragon fruit, sugar infused in some batches.
