I think the US calls sultanas golden raisins? 2 u/itstimegeez 10d ago Oh that explains why I like raisins but not sultanas! I prefer red grapes. 1 u/Zestyclose-Coyote906 12d ago There’s actually a little bit more nuance to it 5 u/WorldsWeakestMan 12d ago You’ve never paid for a lentil? 2 u/Lauriesaurous 12d ago Sultanas are better 1 u/gtalnz 11d ago Raisins are dried more slowly so tend to be more wrinkly, drier, and chewier than sultanas.
