What is raisins conversion?

Raisin conversion refers to the process of transforming grapes into raisins through drying, which concentrates the sugars and flavors. The typical ratio is that it takes about four to five pounds of fresh grapes to produce one pound of raisins. This process can be achieved through various methods, including sun drying, dehydrating, or using a food dehydrator. The resulting raisins have a chewy texture and are commonly used in baking, cooking, and as a snack.
