What is Cornus Fruit?
Cornus fruit, or Cornelian cherry, is a small red fruit from the Cornus mas tree, native to Southern Europe and Western Asia. Known for its tart flavor, it is rich in vitamin C, antioxidants, and essential nutrients. Cornus fruit is used in traditional medicine and cooking, particularly in Korea, where it is valued for its potential health benefits. It can be consumed fresh, dried, or made into jams, juices, and teas, offering versatility in both sweet and savory dishes. The Uiseong Sanseong Village Cornus Fruit Festival showcases the fruit’s various uses and flavors.
