Indian raisins come in different colors and sizes. Their flavour is similar to the grapes used to produce them, only sweeter due to the drying process.
A naturally stable food, raisins resist spoilage due to their low moisture and pH levels.
India’s major grape cultivators are Maharashtra - producing 75%, Karnataka, Andhra Pradesh, Tamil Nadu, Punjab, Haryana, western Uttar Pradesh, Rajasthan and Madhya Pradesh.
To make 1 kilo of raisins, over 4 Kg of fresh grapes are required. These grapes are processed by sun drying and tray drying in order to produce quality raisins. The most important grapes for raisin production include Thompson Seedless, Sonakka and Rudstalk.
