Hashtak

If you combine honey apricots, walnuts and raisins of the kishmish variety in one dish, you get an amazing tasty and incredibly useful treat called hashtak. This oriental sweetness is popular not only in its homeland. But all over the world due to its pleasant rich taste and mass of beneficial properties, which are due to the composition of this product.

Hashtak has been prepared for centuries by eastern hostesses at home, but the modern food industry also offers a ready-made treat for the general consumer. A prerequisite for the manufacture of hashtak is the absence of thermal and chemical treatment of raw materials in the production of raisins and dried apricots. So, grapes and apricots are dried naturally in the sun or in the shade, which guarantees the high quality of the finished product and its beneficial properties.

As a result, dried apricots acquire a dark brown color (a more characteristic prune, so they are often confused in hashtak), and not as bright orange as a product treated with sulfur for longer storage. In addition, the taste of such dried apricots is more rich, honey and sweet.

Regarding raisins in the composition of high-quality hashtak, we can say that chemical agents are also not used in its manufacture, for example, such as caustic soda. In addition, the grapes are not heat treated to speed up drying. All this is very felt in the taste of raisins and its appearance. Walnuts for this oriental treat are also selected on the principle of the highest quality.

The process of making hashtak is as follows: a bone is taken out of dried apricot (dried apricot), and then it is filled with half a walnut and raisins. Those who have had a chance to taste this wonderful dish at least once will hardly forget its taste.

Hashtak is not only a healthy and tasty treat, but also a wonderful gift for lovers of dried fruits and nuts. These natural sweets with nuts, as a rule, are put and packed in woven plates, which makes hashtak not only a tasty gift, but also pleasing to the eye.

As you know, the combination of dried fruits and nuts contributes to stimulating mental and physical development, and since any mother wishes her baby health and mind, hashtak can be called a suitable treat for children. This product is completely devoid of refined sugar, it contains only natural sugars contained in the raw materials. That is why hashtak can become a wonderful alternative to sweets for both children and adults.
