PREPARING THE FOOD
Unlike commercially-produced dehydrated food, there is no extra sugar
added during the dehydrating process unless the user intends to do so.
Adding sugar may produce a bitter taste. It is important to follow these basic
guidelines for best results.
• Always ensure that the food is fresh, not outdated and of good quality.
•• It is best to use tree-ripened fruits as they contain the highest amount of
natural sugar content.
• Do not use over-ripe or rotting fruits and vegetables. If the food has
bruised or discoloured parts, remove these parts before dehydrating
the food.
• Certain fruits, such as apples, pears and apricots are pre-treated to slow
down the loss of vitamins and nutrients and also to prevent discolouring.
Always thoroughly wash the food to ensure that it does not contain dirt,
bacteria and other harmful substances.
• It is optional to peel fruits and vegetables before drying them. The peel
can become tough during the drying process. However, this is really down
to personal preference.
• It may be necessary to steam or blanch vegetables before drying them.
This is due to the different textures of the vegetables.
USING THE DEHYDRUSING THE DEHYDRATOR
