Raisins Description:
Raisins are dried grapes that are naturally sweet and chewy. They are made by drying different varieties of grapes either in the sun or through mechanical drying methods. As the grapes dry, they shrink and darken in color, turning into golden, green, or dark brown raisins depending on the grape type and drying process.
