| I bought some dried jujube in the Asian grocery store because it smells so wonderful. What's a person do with it? How is it cooked and what (how much) is it put in? I understand it grows in Texas. What's your experience with growing it? |

| It's normally used in soup or sweet desserts. You can also just eat the dried one out of the bag. They are good. |

| I've eaten dried jujube and they are delicious. They taste somewhat like a date. Don't eat the small pit! |

| The process of drying usually kills the seed, but sometimes they are viable. If you have a plump seed, crack it open & remove the seed. It will root in Vermiculite with the baggie method. I have cracked open many a jujibe, & only the plump ones will grow. The flat ones are bad seeds. |
