Sultana raisins
Description
Sultana raisins are small, light golden or amber grape fruits with a juicy, soft texture and an intensely sweet, honey-like flavor with a subtle tart note. Their attractive color and shiny skin make them a popular visual and flavor addition to both sweet and savory dishes. Nutritionally, they provide concentrated energy in the form of natural sugars, as well as fiber, potassium, iron, calcium, B vitamins, and polyphenols with antioxidant properties. They can support digestion, replenish iron and electrolytes, but it's worth controlling portions due to their calorie content. In the kitchen, they are suitable for baking, muesli, oatmeal, salads, rice and meat dishes, fillings, and desserts, as well as a complement to cheeses and nuts. Store them in a dry, cool place in an airtight container, preferably in the refrigerator for longer freshness; they can also be frozen, avoiding moisture to prevent clumping and mold.
