Raisins are delicious ingredients that go really well with desserts and salads. In Indian cuisine, the raisin is used to prepare chutney and is added to their basmati rice. I love this sweet and salty combination because it gives dishes a different flavor. In my personal recipe repertoire, I have many delicious recipes that use raisins as a main ingredient as well as cascabel chili, a dry chili that is a little spicy, but very tasty. I invite you to cook up this delicious raisin BBQ sauce with cascabel chilies!
