DEHYDRATING TIPS

Some foods require as much as 14 to 15 hours of time to fully dehydrate.

Consult a food preservation book for specific times and handling of various foods.

This mode is suitable for a variety of fruits, vegetables, herbs and meat strips.

Drying screens can be purchased at specialty kitchen shops.

By using paper towels,some food moisture should be absorbed before dehydrating begins (such as sliced tomatoes or sliced peaches).
