Raisin

Dried grapes (raisins) are high in calories because they are very rich (65-80%) in glucose, which is quickly absorbed by the body. Raisins contain 1.5-2% of nitrogenous substances, 1.9-2.2% of ash and are rich in vitamins necessary for the human body. One kilogram of raisins has 2400-3250 calories, which is higher than most dried fruits. Raisins have many healing properties, especially in anemia, improving blood circulation processes. Raisins are mainly produced in the Central Asian Republics, of which more than 80% are grown in Uzbekistan. The quality of raisins depends not only on how well the drying methods or technological processes are carried out, but also on the sugar content of the grapes before drying. The sugar content of grapes harvested for raisins should not be less than 23-25% for raisin varieties and 22-23% for seed grapes. The lower the sugar content of grapes, the less it affects not only the amount of dry product (raisins), but also its quality. For example, if the sugar content of grapes is 1% less than indicated in the condition, 1.5-2.0 quintals less raisins will be obtained from each hectare of vineyard. Dried grapes must be cooked evenly, in addition to being a pure variety. At the same time, diseased, crushed grapes should be cleaned of stalks and heads, as well as impurities. Grapes are used to make two types of dry products, namely kishmish and raisins. Kishmish is made from seedless grapes, raisins from grape seeds. Of the seedless grape varieties, the following are mainly recommended for drying: White, Black, Lunda, Khishrov Kishmish; from seed varieties - Kattakurgan, Kara janjal, Sultani, Kara Kalbak, Rizamat, Shturangur, Alexander muscat and other varieties.
