General Dehydrating Information
Safety precaution:Wash hands thoroughly prior to preparing food for dehydrating.Likewise,
thoroughly clean all utensils, cutting boards,and counters that be used for preparing food.
Wash food before preparing them for dehydrating.
.When selecting food for drying, choose those that are at peak eating quality. Avoid
overripe* or immature fruits and vegetables. Remove any parts of the food that are bruised
or blemished.
.For even drying, cut food into uniform size,shapes, and thickness.
Drying time are highly variable depending on the type and amount of
food,thickness,evenness of food pieces,humidity,air temperature,personal preference, and
even the age of the plant at the time of harvesting. That is why throughout the book you
will notice there is a range of average drying times. In some cases you may find you may
need to, or prefer to, dry you foods for shorter or longer periods than those listed. For best
results, begin checking your food at the beginning of the range listed in the instructions.
You should then gauge how often you should recheck the food based on how the drying is
progressing. With some foods,such as herbs, that may mean every 10 minutes, and with
other foods, such as fruits,that may mean every 1-2 hours.
.Dehydration prevents microbial growth, however,chemical reaction caused by enzymes in
fruits and vegetables can occur unless the product is pretreated before drying..
Pretreatment will prevent or minimize undesirable color and texture changes during drying
and storage. See specific sections for recommend pretreatment.
.Place food in a single layer on the trays. Do not allow food to touch or overlap.
.When drying the strong-smelling foods,such as onions and garlic, be aware that there will
be a strong odor during the drying process. That odor may linger after drying has been
complete.
