Far from being a fad, dehydrating food is one of the oldest, most effective, and most nutritious ways of preserving food.
Now, finally, there's a book that teaches absolutely everything you need to know about using an electrical food dehydrator to dry food at home - and provides over 100 foolproof recipes for snacks and dried food meals.
With this extraordinary book, you can learn how to cross junk food and expensive store-bought snacks off your family's shopping list - and add homemade, preservative-free fruit leathers, candied apricots, beef (and fish) jerkies, dried "sun" tomatoes, corn chips, banana chips, and more!
Drying food is an ideal way for anyone to reuse their produce. It is a perfect way for the kids to make healthy snacks. It's perfect for the new wave of thrifty consumers who can't bear spending dollars in health food stores for treats they could make themselves for pennies. And food drying requires no pesticides or preservatives - so it's perfect for you, and also for the world!
This book contains detailed methods and guidelines for preparing all kinds of fruits (from apples to watermelon), vegetables (from asparagus to zucchini), fish, meat and more. The book also offers important shopping tips to purchase an electric food dehydrator. Cooked meal recipes (including mushroom soup, sloppy joes, pesto, and moist banana bread), will make this book a classic kitchen. And lightweight, filling trail snacks recipes mean the book will travel, too.
✓ Additional chapters explain how to make herbal seasoning blends, granolas, celery powder, dried fruit sugars, potpourri - and various perfectly delicious jerkies, soups and even cakes.
