the processing method used.

Sultana raisins Summary
sultana raisins are dipped into a solution of water, potassium carbonate and olive oil,
in order to fasten the drying process.
This operation preserves the vitamins and minerals in the grape and causes
the grapes to dry as fast as possible and have them acquire the golden yellow color.
The product consists of good, sound berries,
typical of the current crop which have been sun dried and stored under satisfactory conditions before processing.
The fruit will be sized, de-stemmed, laser screened,
washed in potable water, aspirated and static picked to remove defects and foreign matter.
