Instructions For Use - Dörr MAX Mode D'emploi Et Conseils D'utilisation

Instructions for use:

Preparation of Produce:
Clean the produce and cut away any damaged portions, then dry thoroughly with a cloth
or kitchen towel. Always use the silicon insert for wet or very juicy products (see page 42,
accessories). The produce should be cut into pieces of equal size and thickness as far as
possible. Lay the produce evenly in each drying tray close together but not on top of one
another. Food with a high water content should be placed in the dying tray with the
cut side facing upwards! (fig. page 47).
A maximum of 10 trays may be dried simultaneously. Place the lid on the top tray, plug in
to the mains and set the temperature regulator to the required position. Through the air
circulation system, an even temperature will be reached from the bottom to the top tray
after a short period of operation and the moist air will be expelled through the opening
in the lid. The air circulation system will ensure that both sides of the produce are dried
at the same time making it unnecessary to turn over the produce during drying and thus
reducing the drying time. Even so we recommend to rotate the drying trays, if more than
5 are being used simultaneously.
Storage of Produce:
A prerequisite for perfect storage is that the produce must be absolutely dry and cooled.
To ensure that the produce does not absorb further moisture from the atmosphere, it
should be kept in airtight glass or plastic storage containers or vacuum packed. Mark the
container with the date of storage and protect from light.
Hints:
To help the product retain its natural colour and prevent it from becoming bleached
■
during drying, brush it over lightly with lemon juice.
Check approximately 1 week after drying by cutting a piece of the produce in half.
■
If there is even the slightest sign of water droplets on the cut edge, it is not properly
dried. Replace it in the drying tray(s) and dry further, until it remains totally dry when
cut.
Dried beans and mange-touts should be softened before drying by soaking overnight
■
in lukewarm water.
Dried vegetables and certain cookable dried fruit should be immersed in lukewarm
■
water and allowed to soften overnight before drying. Dried vegetables and dried herbs
for use in soups can be cooked as normal.
