(less than 20%). It is a frequent problem that people over dry fruit, this can lead to a
lower quality taste and the fruit having less nutritional value. Therefore to ensure the

Vegetables should be chewy and brittle however different vegetables can vary in
texture.
Storage of foods
It is vital to store de-hydrated food correctly in order to keep the quality and taste of
the food at a premium. Ensure that all dried foods are stored in a cool dark place; the

If it is possible please store the food in a refrigerator or freezer, alternatively you can
store dried foods in a cool place in your home.

When storing the food it is recommended to store it in a sealed bag or a darkened
container.
