The bits have a deep purple to brown color and carry a sweet, mild flavor reminiscent of dried fruit leathers. The bits are chewy when dry but can be rehydrated and turned into a puree.
More Culinary Applications
Use the bits in darker-colored sausages to bind moisture, stave off lipid oxidation, and reduce sodium. They can be added to the grinder or dissolved in water ahead of time.
Meat / Poultry
For lower-sugar alternatives to sauces such as barbecue sauce, use rehydrated Prune Bits as a thickener and mild sweetener.
More Sauce Application
These bits can be used both as an inclusion and as a filling. To make a rich filling for cinnamon rolls, for instance, mix together 2 parts rehydrated bits with 1 part sugar and season with cinnamon. If using melted chocolate in a chocolate torte, melt the bits directly into the chocolate. To use as an inclusion, add them at the end of the mixing process so the bits keep their shape.
