Description
Zahidi dates are hand-harvested on our family farm in the Coachella Valley of Southern California. Golden in colour, semi-dry in texture, and mildly sweet with a clean nutty finish, they are a firmer, less sticky alternative to the softer syrupy varieties.
Why choose our Zahidi dates
- Distinctive flavour: mild, lightly sweet, with a clean nutty finish.
- Firm, semi-dry texture: easy to chop, slice, stuff or toss into salads, with no sticky mess.
- Long shelf life: stores exceptionally well thanks to their lower moisture content.
- Grown without pesticides: naturally ripened in the desert sun. Not certified organic.
- Whole and unpitted: nothing added, nothing coated, one ingredient.
Perfect for every use
Zahidi dates shine on charcuterie boards, in salads, baked into breads and granola, stuffed with nuts or cheese, or chopped into trail mixes. Their firm texture makes them a kitchen workhorse, and their mild sweetness pairs beautifully with savoury ingredients.
Sizes and pricing
Boxes run from 1 lb to 12 lb, $19 to $118, with shipping included to the lower 48. Nothing is added at checkout. The bigger the box, the less you pay per pound, down to $9.83/lb on the 12 lb. Alaska and Hawaii ship USPS Priority Mail, rated at checkout.
