Preparation
The quality of the dried products is as good as that of the raw food. Therefore, only
use washed and fresh fruits and vegetables. Please do not use overripe food! Remove
all cores, stalks and stones (except cherries). Do not peel fruits.
Cut the food in equal pieces – thin slices dry faster. To avoid discoloration, brush the
fruits with lemon juice. Place the food with the cut side up on the tray – the food
may not be superimposed and the distance between the pieces must be chosen in a
manner that air can circulate sufficiently.
As food dries differently, place congeneric fruits or vegetable on one tray only. A rea-
dy dried tray can be withdrawn during the drying process, or a new tray can be ad-
ded. Vegetable with a firm structure should be blanched for 2 minutes in hot water.
