Dehydrating is used to dry and/or preserve foods such as
fruits, vegetables and herbs. This mode holds an optimum low
temperature (!00 ° F - 160° F) while circulating the heated air
to slowly remove moisture.
For Best Results:
Dry most fruits and vegetables at !40 ° F. Dry herbs at
100° R (Refer to the Dehydrate Chart for examples).
Drying times vary depending on the moisture and sugar
content of the food, the size of the pieces, the amount
being dried and the humidity in the air. Check food atthe
minimum drying time.
Multiple racks can be used simultaneously. Contact ?'our
Bosch dealer for drying racks.
Treat fruits with antioxidants to avoid discoloration.
Consult a food preservation book, county Cooperative
Extension Office or library for additional information.
