5. Mangosteen: The Queen of Fruits
Dried mangosteen segments offer a concentrated version of the fruit's sweet and tangy flavors, living up to its royal title. The drying process turns the delicate white flesh into chewy, flavor-packed morsels that retain the fruit's complex taste. Rich in xanthones and other antioxidants, dried mangosteen provides significant health benefits, including anti-inflammatory and immune-boosting properties. Its subtle acidic undertones complement its natural sweetness, making it a versatile ingredient in both sweet and savory dishes. Dried mangosteen can be enjoyed on its own, added to trail mixes, or used to enhance desserts and beverages.
