Product Information

Details

Raisins, the sweet and chewy dried fruits of grapes, have been a beloved snack and ingredient for centuries. They are created by drying various types of grapes, either in the sun or using mechanical driers, which concentrates the fruit's natural sugars and intensifies their sweetness. One of the key characteristics of raisins is their rich nutritional profile. They are a good source of energy due to their high sugar content, and they also provide dietary fiber, vitamins, particularly B vitamins and vitamin C, and minerals like iron, potassium, and calcium. The presence of antioxidants and other beneficial plant compounds in raisins contributes to various health benefits, including aiding digestion, boosting iron levels, and promoting heart health. Raisins are extraordinarily versatile in the culinary world. They can be enjoyed straight out of the box as a quick, healthy snack, or used in a variety of recipes. They are a common ingredient in baked goods like cookies, bread, and muffins, and also add sweetness and texture to savory dishes, such as tagines, pilafs, and salads. The production of raisins is a significant agricultural activity, especially in regions like California in the United States, the Middle East, and parts of the Mediterranean. The process of turning grapes into raisins has been refined over the years, with innovations in drying technology improving the efficiency and quality of the final product.
