Acrylamide is mainly produced in grain and potato

crisps, chips, sliced bread, bread rolls, bread or fine
baked goods (biscuits, gingerbread, spiced biscuit).
Tips for keeping acrylamide to a minimum

Drying

You can achieve outstanding drying results with hot
air.With this type of preserving, flavours are
concentrated as a result of the dehydration.
Only use unblemished, fresh fruit, vegetables and herbs
and wash them thoroughly. Line the wire rack with
greaseproof paper or parchment paper. Drain the
excess water from the fruit and then dry it.
If necessary, cut it into equal chunks or thin slices.
Place unpeeled fruit onto the dish with the sliced
surfaces facing upwards. Ensure that neither fruit nor
mushrooms overlap on the wire rack.
Grate vegetables and then blanch them.Drain the
blanched vegetables thoroughly and spread them
evenly on the wire rack.
Dry herbs on the stem. Position the herbs evenly and
slightly heaped on the wire rack.
Fruit, vegetables and herbs
Pomes (apple rings, 3 mm thick, 200 g per wire rack)

With top/bottom heating at max. 200 °C.
With hot air at max. 180 °C.
With top/bottom heating at max. 190 °C.
With hot air at max. 170 °C.
Egg or egg yolk reduces the production of acrylamide.
Spread out a single layer evenly on the baking tray. Cook approx. 400-600 g at once on a baking tray so
that the chips do not dry out and become crunchy.

Turn very juicy fruit and vegetables several times. After
drying, remove the dried fruit and vegetables from the
paper immediately.
In the table, you will find settings for drying various
foodstuffs. The temperature and drying time are
dependent on the type, moisture, ripeness and
thickness of the food to be dried.The longer you leave
the food to be dried, the better it will be preserved.The
thinner the slices are, the quicker the drying process
will be and the more flavour the dried food will retain.
For this reason, the table specifies setting ranges.
If you wish to dry food that is not listed in the table, you
should use similar foodstuffs in the table as a reference.
