Dehydrate
For best results when dehydrating food use the Air
Fry tray which allows air to circulate all around the
food for faster preservation.
Tips
Always use clean equipment and utensils.
Keep meat and poultry refrigerated -- 40°F
(4°C) or slightly below -- before dehydrating.
Cut food in evenly sized pieces. Slices should
be even and ¼ to ½ inch thick. This will ensure
all pieces are dehydrated at same time.
Use good quality fruits, vegetables, and meats.
Overripe or bruised fruits and vegetables may
turn black while dehydrating.
Use lean cuts of meat or trim off excess fat.
Use a paper towel to dry meat before dehydrat-
ing.
Store dehydrated foods in airtight containers.
If moisture appears in containers, the food was
not dehydrated properly.
Follow USDA recommendation when dehydrat-
ing.
