Product Description
Raisins are (in English) dried grapes. They are a great, naturally sweet, easy-to-store snack. Golden raisins differ from regular raisins in that they are not sun-dried (which causes browning) but dehydrated mechanically at controlled temperatures and humidity levels. This results in a fruitier, lighter flavour, with golden raisins considered to be more juicy. Due to the drying process and addition of sulphites, golden raisins have more flavonoids than regular raisins which may make them marginally higher in terms of antioxidents. Overall, however, they are tasty, pretty good for you and a welcome addition to all manner of savoury and sweet dishes.
