Sun-dried raisins, often referred to as natural Sultanas, are made from Thompson seedless grapes and are known for their sweet, rich flavor and distinctive raisin taste. As the name suggests, these raisins are dried naturally under direct sunlight without the use of any dipping process or added preservatives. The drying method is slow and natural, which means it takes longer to prepare them compared to other types of raisins. Sun-dried raisins typically have a dark brown color and their sweetness is entirely natural, with no added sugars. This slow, preservative-free drying process helps retain the raisins’ full, authentic flavor, making them a popular choice for those seeking a completely natural, health-conscious snack or ingredient.
