Raisins are dried grapes, often enjoyed as a sweet, chewy snack or used in a variety of dishes like baked goods, salads, and cereals. They come in different varieties, including dark, golden, and sultana raisins, each with a slightly different flavor and texture. Raisins are a good source of natural sugars, fiber, vitamins (like vitamin C and B vitamins), and minerals (such as iron and potassium), offering several health benefits, including promoting digestion, boosting energy, and supporting heart health. Their versatility and rich taste make them a popular ingredient in both savory and sweet recipes.
