FAQs

Question: How and where do I store dates?

Answer: The correct way to store Rostaa Omani dates is in an airtight container. It is advisable to store the container on a cool, dry, and dark shelf. They need to be kept away from direct sources of heat and moisture. Keeping them in an airtight container is vital since, although they are dried fruit, they are prone to catching moisture. If stored correctly, the dates can last up to 3 months.

 

Question: How do I eat Omani dates?

Answer: Omani dates, or Omani khubani, are best consumed in the morning after being soaked overnight. This is known as activating dried fruit. Once soaked, the date changes colour, grows in size and becomes softer and more digestible than when consumed raw or dried. The other benefit is the absorption of nutrients. Your body can harness the nutrients from soaked nuts and fruit rather than raw. 

While you can consume dates raw, you may not be able to completely absorb the mighty walnuts’ goodness due to their enzyme inhibitors and may also face mild indigestion.

They can also be consumed as an evening snack in smoothies. Make sure to balance out your date consumption, as they are high in sugar.

 

Question: How many dates should I consume?

As per studies, consuming 5–10 dates daily is advised to reap the optimum benefits of Omani Dates.

Answer: Children, adolescents, and adults can benefit from dates. It is always advisable to consult with your doctor to best assess your dietary requirements. People with blood sugar must consult their physicians and focus on a balanced diet.
