Raisin Paste

Raisin paste can be a great way to spice up simple desserts. For example, brighten up a simple baked apple by using it to fill the core or make a very simple and delicious tart by using it as a topping for (ready-made) filo pastry. People watching their spending may be interested to know that it can be a convenient and value-for-money alternative to using chopped dates. Of course, chopped dates have many health benefits of their own and are very tasty too, but they can also be significantly more expensive. A good compromise would be to use a mixture of both fruits for outstanding taste on a budget.
