Drying Vegetables

-

Wash vegetables, remove stems and trim areas you deem inedible.

-

Vegetable can be prepared to your personal preference.  For optimal drying, cut or slice vegetable 

into uniform pieces.

-

To prevent food discoloration in vegetables before and after the drying process, there are two 

recommended pretreatment options to prevent this natural process.

Steaming:  

Steam your vegetables in a steamer, your microwave or over a pot of boiling 

water, making sure the vegetables do not make contact with the water.

Blanching: 

Submerge vegetables in boiling water.  

Vegetable Drying Guide

Before Storage

- Allow vegetables to cool for 30-60 minutes before storing as mentioned on page 3. 

- Drying time is all about 

personal

taste.  Be sure to taste vegetables from each tray before storing to 

ensure that the moisture has been removed to your liking.
