Pet Treats - Nesco American Harvest FD-2000 Guide D'entretien Et D'utilisation

Most fruits and vegetables will rehydrate to about 80% of their fresh state
Consequently, they are a littlemore chewy than a fresh or frozen fruit or vegetable,
even when rehydrated Dried food used in cooking will absorb additional liquid, so
adjust the recipe accordingly by adding more water
•
Vegetables — add one additional cup of water for one cup dried food
•
Stewed fruits — add 2 additional cups of water for each cup of fruit, allow to stand
for 1 hour and simmer until tender
•
Pies or fillings — use 1 additional cup of water per 1 cup of fruit – less, if you
desire a thicker consistency
Note: When using fruits in baking or for ice cream, they may be softened by
covering with boiling water and allowing them to stand for 5 minutes Then chop or
blend, depending on use
