What Are Apricot Kernels?
The soft edible pits or seeds of an apricot referred to as Apricot Kernels. Once the apricot is dried or processed; the outer pit is cracked open so as to remove the kernel reserved in it. These nuts resemble almonds, but are different in taste and composition and have a different taste.
The Apricot Kernels are of two types. The initial one is Sweet Apricot Kernels. They taste mildly just like almonds. They are non-poisonous, and they are mostly applied in cookie baking, snacks, and confectionary desserts.
The second form is the Bitter Apricot Kernels. They consist of a natural substance known as amygdalin which is poisonous when taken in its large quantity. However, bitter kernels are used in some traditional medicines and have their uses, though in small and limited quantities, in cosmetics products.
Why Apricot Kernels Are Considered a Hidden Gem
Apricot Kernels might not be the famous nuts like almonds or walnuts, yet they have quite several useful benefits.
Apricot Kernels contain a lot of healthy fats, proteins, fibre, and essential vitamins such as B17 (amygdalin) vitamin E, and magnesium. Nutrients assist to maintain a heart, boost the immune system and to maintain the skin.
They are highly flexible as well. Sweet Apricot Kernels may also be sprinkled into granola, trail mix, cereals and pastries. They can be swept and used as snacks or flour. They are mild tasting; hence suitable in preparing recipes that contain nuts.
Another reason why they are so popular is that of the Apricot Kernel oil. It is light oil rich in nutrients and therefore it is good as a massage oil, face creams and lotions. It is renowned due to moisturizing and anti-aging properties on the skin.
Bitter Apricot Kernels are applied in small doses in traditional medicine due to the presence of amygdalin. This compound is controversial and has to be used with a lot of caution, but it has enhanced curiosity on Apricot Kernels globally.
