I would love the input of all those who have more experience than I, or who can suggest things that I have over looked. Blog:http://prep2survive.blogspot.com/ I am making an index of all fruits and vegetables, and how they should be dehydrated. It has been started on my blog, but I would also like to copy the info here for all of the forum readers. I have categories of: - Foods needing blanching - Foods needing steaming - Foods needing ascorbic acid or lemon juice - Foods needing no prep work You can see the list I have started, but I feel it is still incomplete, and there are things I have over looked. If you disagree with my methods outlined I would also like to know that, as many things have a few ways to be completed. I also plan to include the temperature the different things should be dried at, and a ball park estimate of how long they should be dried for. Once I feel I have a good foundation, I will make a thread on the forums, with the complete info and who knows, maybe it'll be made into a sticky for everyone's reference. Thanks to all those who can help this move forward in a way that can be beneficial to the whole community.
Thanks for a very informative blog. I'm really new to dehydrating, so I would suggest you put the time and temp next to the food for us newbies to get the best drying results. Thanks! Kajun
