BIELMEIER BHG 601 Mode D'emploi page 13

Here are a few ideas:

Fruit pies and other baked goods, fruit bread,
muffins, variations and raisins etc.

Stewed fruit goes well with waffles and pan-
cakes, for sandwiches, deserts, applesauce
etc.

Ingredients for some meat and game recipes,
chutneys etc.

Ingredients for granola, pudding, yoghurt,
whipped cream, ice cream, fruit salad etc.

You can candy different kinds of fruit or frost
them according to your fancy. Bananas are
highly suitable for milk drinks and as an ad-
ditive to baby food. Grind the dried bananas
into a powder in this case.

Various fruits can be enhanced with honey
or nuts. You can easily mix fresh fruit and dry
fruit that has been dehydrated. Depending
on the recipe you leave them whole or chop
them but not finely.

An extra specialty is fruit leather from the
Himalayas which consists of various pureed
fruits with honey, nuts and spices added,
rolled out and cut into rectangular pieces,
then dried to a chewable consistency. After it
has been rolled out it can also be filled, rolled
up and cut into rolls.
V e g e t a b I e s are generally rehydrated by
soaking before being used. Add about 1 cup of
cold to warm water to a cup of dried vegetables.
Please don't add more water than is necessary
for any particular dish. Also, the vegetables that
have been soaked should not be left to stand
overly long.
Dehydrated vegetables need to be cooked
about as long as frozen ones. Vegetables that
are used for soup and that have been cut rela-
tively fine need not be soaked before being ad-
ded to the soup. Dried herbs that are to be used
in soups, sauces, salad dressings etc. can be cut
to the desired sizes in a food processor.
Dried vegetables that have been ground are
highly suitable for baby foods, cream soups,
sauces etc. You should not grind more than
you expect to use in a month because grinding
reduces usability of the items.
Desiccated vegetables can also be used very
well together with fresh ones. Grind herbs at the
same time you are using them. Please watch that
all stems are removed.
Mushrooms are dehydrated and used just the
same as fresh ones. For soup and sauces add
some that have been ground.
Paprika and chili-peppers can be cut or ground
in a food processor and then stored in jar for
use as a spice.
You will find many more uses in cookbooks.
There are practically unlimited applications for
these dried items.
Please note!

The given desiccating time is only an ap-
proximate value.

Depending on the goods the desiccating
times may differ slightly.

Plums which are ripe early in the year content
too little sugar and therefore can not be de-
hydrated.

The desiccating trays should be securely
placed upon each other.

A tray slippage may cause malfunction.

Make sure that the sliding switch is exactly on
the chosen temperature setting. The desic-
cating tray with the fixed base should always
be the lowest one. In this way the correct air
circulation can be guaranteed and the table
is protected against the hot air.
