What is the difference between currants and sultana's?!
Answers: CURTAINS U ANG UP SULTANAS U EAT,HE HE
They are both made from grapes, but different types.
Do you know the difference between raisins, sultanas and currants?
Raisins are dried white grapes usually of the variety 'Muscatel'. The main producers are the USA, Turkey, Greece and Australia.
Sultanas are small raisins. They are seedless, sweet, pale golden in colour and come mainly from Turkey.
Currants are dried, black, seedless grapes originally produced in Greece. They were known as 'raisins of the sun'.
Personally I would say that currants are far more harder than sultanas as sultanas are far more fleshy and soft and altogether more pleasant to taste. You often get quite hard bits in currants, yuk!!

CURRANT
Currants are dried, black, seedless grapes. All currants derive from the same variety of grape known as the Corinth and this is from where the word currant originated
