Freeze Dried Black Jamun

Jamun has one of the shortest seasons of any Indian fruit — a few weeks, and it is gone. Freeze-drying is the only method that keeps that deep purple colour and the particular sweet-astringent bite, because nothing is ever heated.

A fruit most people can only eat for a month of the year, available the rest of it.

• Jamun, whole fruit, nothing else
• No added sugar, preservatives or colour
• The purple is the fruit's own

• Eat as-is for a sharp, tangy snack
• Grind to a powder and stir into water, buttermilk or smoothies
• Steep in warm water to make a jamun infusion
• Scatter over yoghurt or kheer

Airtight, cool, dry, out of the sun. Reseal immediately after opening.

Sealed and kept somewhere cool and dry, several months. Once opened, close the jar firmly straight after every use. Freeze-dried food pulls moisture out of ordinary air quickly, and once it softens the crispness does not come back.

No. Dehydrated usually means hot-air dried at 60 to 80 degrees, which darkens the food, drives off the aroma and leaves it chewy. Freeze-drying applies no heat at all — the food is frozen, then the ice is drawn off under vacuum. The colour, aroma and structure survive.

No. Nothing has been added to this product beyond what is stated on the label. Removing the water is what preserves it, so no chemical preservative is needed. Any sweetness you taste came with the food itself.

No. Store it at room temperature in a sealed jar, away from direct sun and away from steam. A cupboard is ideal. Do not keep it beside the stove or the sink.

Cover with warm water and leave for five to ten minutes, depending on how thick the pieces are. Vegetables can also go straight into anything with enough liquid — soups, dals and curries — and will rehydrate as it cooks.
