Raisin

A raisin is a dried grape, a fruit produced by drying fresh grapes in the sun or a dehydrator. They are a concentrated source of energy, offering a sweet taste and chewy texture. Raisins vary in size, color, and flavor depending on the grape variety and drying method used. They are a versatile ingredient used in baking, cooking, and as a snack. Raisins are high in fiber, potassium, and antioxidants, providing health benefits while being shelf-stable and easy to store.
