AI overview

A raisin is a dried grape that is made by removing moisture from fresh grapes, resulting in a small, wrinkled sweet fruit. Raisins are widely used in cooking, baking, and as a snack because they are nutritious, shelf-stable, and can be made from different grape varieties, each producing raisins with distinct flavors and appearances.
