Mazafati dates, often referred to as Mazafati Rutab, are harvested while still in the Rutab stage. This variety is particularly popular for snacking and table eating.
**Taste and Texture:**
Mazafati dates contain 15% to 35% moisture, featuring thick flesh and a flavor profile that combines chocolaty caramel notes with hints of brown sugar.
**Color and Size:**
These dates are dark brown with a soft and fleshy appearance, typically measuring between 2.5 to 4 cm in length.
**Nutritional Benefits and Uses:**
Rich in vitamins, fiber, and potassium, Mazafati dates are perfect for snacking right out of the bag. They can also be pitted and stuffed with cheese or other fillings. Due to their high water content, they are rarely used for making date paste or syrup.
**Origins:**
Mazafati dates come from Bam, a city in Kerman, Iran.
