    hi
    i have never bought it in bulk but some of my friends do buy fresh dates in bulk, Since the moisture content is high in fresh dates , they spoil pretty fast. So you can either keep them in the fridge or the best freeze them either in freeze bags / ziplock bags / airtight containers. Naturally, left out they dont dry, they just become bad.

    hi,
    let me know whether drying in the sun helps. logically they should. btw, we are in Muscat, staying in Wadi kabir. In Muscat for the past 4 years. Do you come to Muscat often.

    thanks, same to you. I enjoyed both salalah as well as wahiba sands. But hasnt the kharif season finished in salalah. Both of these are the best in Muscat.

    We have already seen salalah four years back, anyhow we like to enjoy the travelling by car. But the Wahiba sands this is the first time.
