Preparation Enzymes in fruits and vegetables are responsible for changes in color and taste during ripening. These changes also take place during drying and storage. The preheating method can be used as a pre-preparation of vegetables. This helps to preserve the original color of the vegetables and speeds up drying. This method also ensures that the original taste is preserved during storage and easier preparation before cooking, as well as the cooking time. Most light-colored fruits (such as apples, apricots, peaches, and pears) tend to darken during drying. To prevent this side effect, you can soak such fruit in a suitable solution before drying. Soaking food You can soak the fruit in the following solutions: • Pineapple or lemon juice as a suitable natural substitute reduces unwanted blackening. Dip the fruit slices directly into the juice. Leave them there for about 2 minutes and then place them directly on the dryer grids. You can also soak the fruit in honey, orange juice or sprinkle with coconut. However, you can also use your imagination and create your own solution. • Sodium bisulphite: When purchasing, ask for instructions for safe use. Dissolve 1 teaspoon of sodium bisulfite in 0.25 l of water. Prepare small pieces of fruit and soak them in the solution for 2 minutes. This prevents the loss of vitamin C and preserves the light color of the fruit. You can buy sodium bisulfite at your local pharmacy. • Ascorbic acid or citric acid solution - a commercial antioxidant mixture contains ascorbic acid - you can also use it, but it is often not as effective as pure ascorbic acid. You can preheat the fruit with steam. However, the preheated fruit may soften, making it more difficult to process and difficult to process. The syrup can help maintain the color of apples, apricots, figs, nectarines, peaches, pears and plums. • Rough-skinned fruits (grapes, prunes and small dark plums, cherries, figs and berries) can be heated in water, which helps the skin to crack. This will allow the moisture to dry out of the fruit faster. Remove excess water from the fruit and vegetables prepared in this way by first placing the slices on paper napkins or clean towels. The drying grids should be filled with a thin layer of slices. If necessary, you can use thin gauze to prevent the slices from sticking together.

Food rehydration All dehydrated fruit can be rehydrated again. However, most fruits are more popular in dried form. On the contrary, vegetables are popular in rehydrated form. To rehydrate the vegetables for cooking, wash them in water, then soak them in unsalted cold water so that they are completely covered. Leave it soaked for 2 to 8 hours and then cook in the same water in which you urinated the vegetables. If more water is needed, add water. Bring the water to a boil, then reduce the temperature and continue to cook. You can also add salt to taste, but only at the end of cooking, because salt slows down the rehydration process. Compared to fresh products, cooking loses its taste and texture. For rehydration of vegetables such as carrots need ice-cold water and leave the vegetables soaked in the refrigerator. You can rehydrate the dried food by soaking, cooking, or a combination of both. Dried food is unique, so you should not expect the same product as when it was fresh. Drying will not allow the food to get rid of bacteria and yeast. However, if fruits and vegetables are soaked at room temperature, bacteria and yeast can multiply. It is safer to soak fruits and vegetables in the cold. Dried and rehydrated fruits and vegetables can be used in many ways. You can serve dried fruit as tasty canapes at home, on walks, during sports. Chopped into small pieces, they go well with cakes and cooking. You can use rehydrated fruit to prepare sauces and compotes. You can add them to your favorite recipes for gelatin delicacies, cakes, fillings, milkshakes, ice cream. You can use dried vegetables in soups and sauces, or like tasty canapes. To optimally maintain nutritional value, observe the following: • Steam fruits and vegetables to the prescribed length. • Always store dried food in well-tested containers in a cool, dry and dark place. • Check them regularly for possible leakage of moisture into the container. • Consume dried food as soon as possible. Drying Drying time varies according to the type of fruit and vegetables, the size of the pieces and the fullness of the drying grid. To check that the fruit and vegetables are dry enough, remove a few pieces from the dryer and let them cool down. When warm, they contain more moisture than when they cool down. Dried vegetables should be hard and crispy. Dried fruits turn leathery and flexible. If you want to store them for a longer period of time, home-made fruit should be drier than fruit sold in stores.
Page 18
Packing and storage Let the fruit cut into different sizes stand for one week after it has dried. This balances the moisture between the individual pieces. You can then store the fruit in non-plastic and non-metallic containers, which we store in a dry place. Fruit and vegetables should be thoroughly chilled before being packed in containers. It is best to store in small containers, which will allow quick consumption after opening. When packing, be careful not to squeeze the pieces too much, they may break up. Glass bottles and freezer containers are suitable storage containers. Metal containers are only suitable if the food is first packed in a plastic bag. You should check the dried fruit once a month. If you feel that moisture has entered the container, open it immediately and consume the contents. Grid translation The fruit dryer you bought is designed with natural airflow in mind, which removes moisture from food. To ensure even drying, they should change the location of the individual grids during drying. The grilles located at the bottom of the device are exposed to more heat. By simply folding the grids, you guarantee even drying. Recipe book Mixed fruit bag 2 peeled bananas 1 kg of strawberries 1 can of canned pineapple (cut into pieces) Cut the fruit into equal pieces.

Spices and herbs With the food dryer you can conjure the scent of your favorite spices and herbs and enjoy it at any time. Just use the plants that you have grown in the garden. You simply break them or cut them into small pieces, place them on the grid and dry them. The drying time should be approximately 5 hours. You can store them in decorative containers or linen bags tied with a ribbon. Before drying, you can sprinkle them with rosemary or mint. The best method of storage is to keep containers closed. Meat • Use only fresh meat. • Remove tendons, bones and fat. • Rinse and dry the meat thoroughly. • Lean meat can be preserved or marinated before dehydration. Before starting the drying process, dry such meat in air first. • Cut the meat into thin slices. The fish • Use only fresh fish. • Remove fish bones and skin. • Rinse the fish thoroughly. • Drizzle with lemon juice and place in salt water for about 30 minutes. Then dry it thoroughly. • Cut the fish into thin slices.
