Golden Malayer Raisins 102
DESCRIPTION
Malayer Raisins are divided into 2 kinds; one of them is Sultana and the other one is Golden. They are immersed in a solution of Potassium Carbonate (Tizab), oil and water. The threaded bunches of grapes are hung from the ceiling of shaded cellars away from the sunlight. Then they are fully covered and passively smoked with So2 for about 5,6 hours. So2 makes the skin golden and very thin. Adding So2 is up to customers demand and it can be skept,
For drying them, Potassium Carbonate (Tizab) is used. For Sultans raisins, less So2 is used than the Golden type and that is why one of them is Golden and the other one is light brown. If we don't use So2, its color gets darker.
