2 FOOD DEHYDRA TION A History and Background Y our Food Dehydrator brings a new dimension to ancient food preservation pr ocesses. It allows you to enjoy a simpler and more rapid drying process in the convenience of you own home.
3 PRINCIPLES OF DEHYDRA TION There ar e no uniform rules that apply to all food dehydration pro- cesses. The best way to become proficient is to experiment using this booklet as a guideline and then adjust your drying techniques accordingly .
4 PRETREA TING Enzymes in fruit and vegetables are r esponsible for color and flavor changes during ripening. These changes will continue during drying and storage unless the produce is pr etreated to slow down enzyme activity . Blanch ing can b e used in the pr etreat ment of v egetables.
5 Before drying pr etreated food, remove any excess moistur e by plac- ing the food on paper towels or clean cloths. T rays should be loaded with a thin layer of food as directed. If needed, clean cheesecloth can be spread on the trays to pr event food pieces from sticking or falling through.
6 RECONSTITUTING FOODS Not all dehydrated foods need to be reconstituted. Some fruits ar e preferable in their dried form. Most vegetables taste better when reconstituted. T o reconstitute vegetables for cooking, mer ely wash product in clean water , then place in an amount of cold, unsalted water and cover .
7 REMEMBER Always use fresh, quality food and wash everything before starting to dehydrate 1. Best r esults are achieved when the quality of the food is high. Select ripe produce in good condition. Bad food may give an off-flavor to the entir e lot. 2.
