Sultana Raisin
08062030Sultana Raisin refers to the ripe fruit of various grape varieties that have been soaked in an allowed alkaline solution and dried in the sun. The color of this type of raisin varies from light yellow to dark brown. In order to reduce the drying time of grapes, acidification is used with the help of cold, warm and cold or hot emulsion acid solutions by immersion or spraying. Acidification of grapes is done in order to improve the quality of the product, the transparency of the fruit and preserve its color, taste and essential oils. The presence of vegetable oil in the acidification of grapes fills the cracks and pores of the grape skin and prevents the penetration of microorganisms and fungal spores into the fruit. Malayer city in Hamadan province has the largest production of Sultana raisins. In order to prepare Sultana Raisin for export to different countries, triple washing processes, laser sorting by advanced and updated devices, passing the products through a metal detector are done. Also, the final sorting is done by human power in completely hygienic conditions. All chemical and microbiological tests are carried out in an advanced laboratory in order to match the quality of Sultana Raisin with global standards.

15 | Size Uniformity Test: Weigh 200 grams of the sample and count the number of seeds in it, divide the total weight of the test sample (200 grams) by the total number of green raisins in 200 grams, to get the average weight of the seeds. Get green raisins. Then, separate and weigh 5 of the smallest and 5 of the largest green raisins in 200 grams of the sample. Divide the resulting weights in each case by 5 to determine the average weight of the largest and smallest green raisins. Then compare the average weight of the smallest and largest cubes with the average weight of the cubes in 200 grams. If the difference between the average weight of the largest and smallest kernels and the average weight of the kernels is less than 0.3, the green raisin is uniform and uniform, otherwise the green raisin is non-uniform. |
