medjool dates
Caramel-like dried fruit
Medjool dates are a large, soft variety of date fruit prized for their rich, caramel-like sweetness and tender flesh.
Originally from Morocco, they're often called the "king of dates" and command premium prices.
Medjools are eaten fresh, stuffed with nuts or cheese, or used in smoothies and baking as a natural sweetener: I swapped sugar for medjool dates in the recipe.
