How you use Dehydrated Food
can be used as a snack, but also as ingredients for countless recipes.
Fruits
If dried fruit is to be used to substitute for fresh fruit in a recipe it must be re-hydrated
by soaking it in water to replace what was removed in the dehydration process. Add
the corresponding amount of water (e.g. one cup of water to one cup of fruit) and let
it soak for about 4 hours. When in doubt, use a bit less water and a bit less time to
prevent the items from becoming soggy.
You can also use cookbooks that provide recipes based on different national or re-
gional cuisines.
Here are a few ideas:
Fruit pies and other baked goods, fruit
ƒ
bread, blueberry muffins, varied re-
placement for raisins, etc.
Stewed fruit goes well with waffles and
ƒ
pancakes, for sandwiches, deserts,
applesauce, etc.
Use as ingredients for some meat and
ƒ
game recipes, chutneys, etc.
Use as ingredients for granola, pud-
ƒ
ding, yoghurt, whipped cream, ice
cream, fruit salad, etc.
You can candy different kinds of fruit
ƒ
or glaze them according to your fan-
cy. Bananas are highly suitable for
milk drinks and as an additive to baby
food. For such use, simply grind the
dried bananas into a powder.

Various fruits can be enhanced with
ƒ
honey or nuts. You can easily mix
fresh fruit and dry fruit that has been
dehydrated. Depending on the recipe,
you leave them whole or chop them,
but not finely.
One specialty is fruit leather from
ƒ
the Himalayas, which consists of va-
rious pureed fruits with honey, nuts
and spices added, rolled out, cut into
rectangular pieces, and then dried to
a chewable consistency. After it has
been rolled out, it can also be filled,
rolled up and cut into rolls.
