Drying
Drying is a traditional method of
preserving fruit, certain vegetables and
herbs.
It is important that fruit and vegetables
are ripe and not bruised before they are
dried.
Prepare the food for drying by cutting
it up, and peeling and coring it if
necessary.
Distribute the food to be dried evenly
according to size over the rack or the
glass tray.
If you are using both the rack and
glass tray, insert the glass tray below
the rack.
