Dehydrating Tips
Food Preparation
• Choose in-season fruits and vegetables for best flavor. Discard any with bruises or mold.
• Cut foods the same thickness, size, or shape to ensure even drying.
Pretreatment
• Most fruits and vegetables require pretreatment before drying. Blanch vegetables to prevent color loss or to break skins to shorten the drying
process. Dip fruits or potatoes in a solution of equal parts of lemon juice and water or use a fruit preservative following package directions.
• Drain and completely pat dry food before dehydrating.
• Marinate meat for jerky in refrigerator or season with jerky seasoning.
Determining Dryness
• Top Tray in Air Fryer will dehydrate faster. Switch Trays occassionally during dehydration. Check all Trays for doneness at the minimum
recommended time on chart below.
• All fruits should be able to bend and be slightly soft but not tacky, except for apples and bananas, which should be crisp.
• All vegetables should be crisp and easily broken.
• Jerky is dry when it cracks without breaking when bent.
