Description of Iranian raisins (Sultana ,Golden ,Aagari ,Acid)

Sultana Raisin

Sultana Raisins are made using a solution of sodium carbonate or potassium carbonate and raisin oil. In this method, this Iranian raisins
the drying time of the berries is short and the coarseness of the berries is maintained during drying. The color of
the prepared Sultana raisins is yellowish-green and soft. First, the arranged clusters are placed in a basket and immersed in
the prepared solution for one minute. Sultana raisins ( Iranian raisins) are then placed in containers to be drained and then transferred to an area, but the clusters should not be stacked. In order to dry the berries evenly, we turn the clusters so that we can dry the lower part of the berries. In this method, the drying time is from 5 to 8 days. The day before picking the
clusters, we prepare a raisin solution. For this purpose, in 100 liters of semi-hot water, we add 5 kg of commercial
powder of potassium carbonate and 2 liters of green oil and afterward we stir the solution. The obtained solution,
which has a milky color, is enough for 2500 kg of grapes. If while drying grapes, it is cloudy with slight sunlight,
and if the clusters contain large berries, they increase the amount of potassium carbonate and the same amount of
green oil in the solution. Potassium carbonate causes fine grooves on the surface of the berry and the rapid evaporation
of water vapor and also causes the berries to turn yellow. Green oil also softens raisins.

Know about raisins advantages.

Golden Raisins

Golden raisins are from the fertile and high-quality soils of Malekan city, and because it was first in California
(the same as Anguri), Golden raisins was even registered as California in the city and cities around us for several years.
But later it was named Anguri because it was called California in other parts of the world. Anguri is now the best raisin in the world and even our country’s grapes are ahead of California in terms of sugar. The best raisins
identified in the world are called Malekan raisins. Our factory is located in the heart of Malekan, which is surrounded by vineyards. We get our raisins directly from grape farmers.

Acid raisins

Acid raisins are known as greens. It is obtained by using an acid solution. In this method,
the drying time of the berries is short and the coarseness of the berries is maintained during drying.
The color of the prepared raisins is yellowish-green and soft. First, the arranged clusters are placed in a
basket and immersed in the prepared solution for one minute. They are then placed in containers to drain and
transferred to an area, but the clusters should not be stacked. In order to dry the berries evenly, by turning
the clusters, they try to dry the lower part of the berries.
In this method, the drying time is from 5 to 8 days. The day before picking the spikes, we prepare an acid solution.
For this purpose, in 100 liters of semi-hot water, we add 5 kg of commercial powder of potassium carbonate and 2
liters of green oil and afterward we stir the solution. The obtained solution, which has a milky color, is enough for
2500 kg of grapes. If while drying grapes, it is cloudy with slight sunlight, and at the same time, if the clusters
contain large berries, they increase the amount of potassium carbonate and the same proportion of green oil in the
solution. Potassium carbonate causes fine grooves on the surface of the berry and the rapid evaporation of water
vapor which causes the berries to turn yellow. Green oil also softens raisins.

Asgari raisins

These Raisins are dried fruits of different grape varieties. In this method, due to the use of alkali solution,
including: (sodium carbonate or potassium carbonate and raisin oil), first the clusters are arranged and placed in
a basket and immersed in alkali solution for 1-2 minutes. Finally, they hang them until they get dry and turn green.
