Sultanas, also known as sultanas, have a history dating back thousands of years to the ancient Egyptians, Greeks and Romans, who used them not only as food, but also as currency and offerings to the gods. Derived from the drying of grapes, sultanas are a versatile and nutritious ingredient and come in different varieties such as sultanas, which are seedless and light in colour, Corinth sultanas, which are small and intensely flavoured, and Thompson sultanas, which are sweet and juicy.
The sultanas are produced by drying in the sun or with special dryers, a process that concentrates the grapes' natural sugars, giving them their characteristic sweet flavour.
Sultanas are easy to store and have a long shelf life if kept in a cool, dry place. Before being used in some recipes, it can be rehydrated by soaking it in water or other liquids such as rum or fruit juice. This dried fruit is a favourite food all over the world for its versatility and unique taste.
