About Jujube, raw
The jujube (Ziziphus jujuba), also called the red date or Chinese date, is a small round fruit borne on a thorny tree that has been cultivated in China for thousands of years. Picked fresh, it is crisp and apple-like with green-to-red skin; left to ripen and dry, it wrinkles into a deep-red, chewy fruit that tastes remarkably like a date. Jujubes run low in fat and supply a good dose of vitamin C, fiber, and antioxidants.
The fresh fruit is eaten out of hand like a little apple, while dried jujubes are simmered into teas, soups, congee, and stews throughout East Asian cooking, candied as a snack, or used as a natural sweetener. Dried, they are also a mainstay of traditional Chinese herbal tonics, often paired with goji berries. Choose fresh fruit that is smooth and firm, or dried fruit that is plump rather than rock-hard, and keep dried jujubes in an airtight container in a cool, dry cupboard, where they last a year or more.
