SACHETS AND POTPOURRIS
You can save the fragrance of spring and summer and enjoy whatever sweet-
smelling plants you have in your flower and herb garden with the family size
food dehydrator. Select petals from the flower and place them loosely on the
mesh tray and place them in your dehydrator with all vents wide open. When
perfectly dried (about five hours) store the petals in decorative containers or
sachet bags and close with a ribbon. You can sprinkle the petals with spices
like powdered cinnamon, whole cloves, a bit of dried rosemary or mint for
variety. It is best to keep the container closed until all of the fragrances have
blended.
DRYING TABLE FOR FRUITS
The times are approximate. Your drying times will vary with room temperature,
Humidity, moisture content of the food and how thinly the food is sliced. The
presence of natural juices in food will also vary; some fruit sugars tend to be
stickier than others
