Drying Vegetables
Dry vegetables at 50-55
℃
. Vegetables dry much faster than fruits. At the end of the drying
period moisture loss is rapid. As a result, vegetables need to be checked often towards the
ends of the end of the drying time to prevent over-drying. Food turns brown when it is
over-dried. When drying smaller vegetables, such as peas or carrots, it is recommended
that you place them on a mesh screen on the tray. A mesh screen will help prevent smaller
foods from falling through the grates in the tray as they dehydrate. See information on
before pages, “How to Use the Nonstick Mesh Screens.”
Selection and Preparation
Wash vegetables to remove dirt and debris. Trim vegetables to remove fibrous or woody
portions or bruised and decayed areas, peel, and slice using the preparation information
found on the Vegetable Drying Guide on before pages. Slice or cut vegetable into pieces
that are uniform in size. See befores for pretreatment information about specific
vegetables.
