Artichokes

PREPARATION: 

Wash, remove leaves, remove and discard the fuzzy chokes and

cut the hearts into quarters.

PRETREATMENT: 

Steam-blanch for 4 minutes; drain.

DEHYDRATE: 

Dry at 100

º

for approximately 18 hours, until brittle.

REHYDRATE: 

Soak in boiling water for 15 minutes, adding a little lemon juice to

help retain the color; drain well.

NOTE

• Canned artichoke hearts dry beautifully.

• Dried artichoke hearts are good marinated or in appetizer dips.

• Artichokes are good for you, so don’t neglect them in your diet.

PREPARATION: 

Wash and remove tough ends.

PRETREATMENT: 

Steam-blanch for 3 minutes; drain.

DEHYDRATE: 

Dry at 100

º

for 35 to 40 hours, depending on the size of the

stalks, until very dry and brittle.

REHYDRATE: 

Soak in hot water for 30 minutes; drain.  Stalks tend to remain

slightly tough.

NOTE

• 

Asparagus has a very high water content, so it requires a long drying 

time.  Make sure asparagus is very dry and brittle before storing to 

avoid mold.

• 

Dried asparagus is best used in recipes that require mashed asparagus.  

Or you can cut it into pieces and mix it into a casserole dish.

DEHYDRATE: 

Dry at 100

º

for approximately 18 hours, until crisp.

REHYDRATE: 

Soak in cold water for 30 minutes; drain.  It is not necessary to

rehydrate dried mushrooms before adding to soups or stews.

NOTE

• Dried mushrooms are excellent in spaghetti sauces, creamed dishes, and all 

types of savory casseroles and stuffings.

• Save precious time by indicating the weight of the mushrooms before
