What Is Dried Kishmish?

Kishmish and raisins are two names for dried grapes. They are small pieces of dried fruit that are easy to measure out for a snack or a recipe. You may see raisins sold in different colours and varieties, including golden raisins.

Taste and Texture

Raisins generally have a sweet fruit taste and a chewy texture. Their size, colour and softness can vary by variety and pack. Try a few on their own to see how their taste works with your favourite foods.

If you plan to use kishmish in baking or cooking, the texture may change as the raisins take up moisture from the dish. Follow your recipe if it asks you to soak them first. For a snack mix, you can add them as they are.

How to Store Kishmish

Follow any storage directions printed on the pack. Once opened, seal the packaging well or place the raisins in a clean, airtight container. Keep them away from moisture and direct sunlight, and use clean, dry hands or a dry spoon when taking some out.

Check the best-before date on the pack. If you are buying several packs, use the one with the earliest date first. Keeping the packaging can also help you refer back to its storage instructions.
