Carob is a superfood: it is part of those functional foods, real nutraceutical foods that are essential for the balance of the body.
The wide range of vitamins and minerals it is rich in, such as Calcium, Potassium, Phosphorus, Magnesium, Zinc, Selenium and Iron, B vitamins, vitamin C, E, K, J, and folates, helps to satisfy our daily nutritional needs.
A versatile, precious and healthy fruit: in Sicily it finds its maximum expression and has always been used in many traditional recipes and preparations.
From a sensory point of view, carob is characterized by hints similar to cocoa with notes of honey and caramel. In ancient times in Sicily it was considered the "poor man's chocolate" that gave both adults and children delicious moments!
Tasting it pure, you can perceive hints of ripe fruit, figs, dates and molasses.
Furthermore, carob does not contain gluten, so the use of the fruit and its derivatives are also recommended for those who suffer from celiac disease or gastrointestinal disorders.
