Dehydration Tips
Fruits
• Always start with fresh fruit.
• Cut fruit in equal pieces approximately 1/8” thick.
Thinner pieces will dry quicker.
• Fruits need to be dipped into an antioxidant, a color-
keeping preservative, or two parts water and one part
lemon juice. Treating fruit with an antioxidant will help
it retain vitamins, color and flavor.
Vegetables
Most vegetables require blanching to inactivate
enzymes.
Herbs and Spices
• Herbs and spices dry quickly.
• Check every 30 minutes to avoid over-drying.
• When drying herbs, leaf clusters should be separated
from stems.
