Red dates are an inseparable ingredient in Chinese cuisines. They are consumed regularly in soups,cakes and teas by expectant mothers.Rich in Vitamin C, red dates can transfer the excess cholesterol in the body into bile acids, thus reducing the probability of gallstone formation. Fresh red dates, rich in calcium and iron, also play an important role in the prevention and treatment of osteoporosis and anemia.Ginger besides its detoxification properties, is excellent for treating gases and bloating.

I saw a recipe in a dessert cookbook from overseas which used dates pickled in orange juice, so I bought some orange juice and tried to make it. Dates pickled in brandy or rum are often used in pound cakes, but dates pickled in orange juice are unusual, so I wrote up the recipe.The dates will dissolve if you leave them to soak for too long, so only leave them for a day or two. I recommend you only make the amount you want to eat! Recipe by Uchidenokozuchi

I never thought that dates can be so good with bacon. When i was in the supermarket with a friend she told me that dates are delicious when wrapped with a bacon. The natural sweetness of dates and bacon when combine together is amazing :)
