What's the difference between currants, sultanas and raisins?!
Answers: got two recipies for the same dish but one says use raisins and the other says sultanas!
it is down to the type of grape used
ie sultana seedless white grape dried in shaded area
raisin seedless white thompson grape dried in sun
currants seedless black grape
I think it is how dried out the grape used is. Raisins are more dried up whereas sultanas are quite plump and juicy compared to them.
not sure, think its maybe different types of grapes they come from that gives them different names
Curtans go on your windows. Raisans are wrinkled grapes. Sultans own castles in Agrabah.
A raisin is any dried grape.
Sultana is actually an abbreviation of sultana raisin - which is a raisin made from Sultana grapes.
Currant is a small seedless grape named after Corinth.
