6. Check food often as it is defrosting.
1. To dehydrate food, you need racks that will
allow air to circulate. We suggest you use
T
baking cooling racks or, if you have
purchased the accessory kit for the oven,
use the dehydrating racks. (For further
information on accessory kit, contact HSN.)
Two layers can be dehydrated at the same time.
2. Press the
" Dehydrate " button once. Screen will display 30 minute timer by
default, which can be adjusted up or down by using the up or down arrow
buttons.
3. You do not need to set a temperature for the dehydrate function.
4. Check food often while dehydrating. You may want to remove the trays and
turn the food for the best air circulation. See dehydrating tips below.
NOTE: Dehydrating is complete when fruit is leathery, pliab&$nd does not have
moist center when cut. It should not be brittle. Vegetables should be brittle, will
crack if bent or shatter if hit with a hammer when cool.
Dehydrating is amethod of food preservation that is simple, safe and easy to learn.
Dehydrating also creates new food products such as fruit leather, banana chips,
pumpkin seeds and beef jerky.
*
Dehydrating removes the moisture from the food so bacteria, yeasts and molds
t
can't grow. Since dehydrating removes moisture, the food shrinks, and becomes
lighter in weight. When the food is ready for use, water is added, and the food
returns to its original shape.
Dehydratingfood is a slow Process, and time depends on type of food and thickness.
Don't try to dehydrate food by setting the oven at a different setting at a higher
temperature since you would cookthefood on the outsidebefore it drieson the inside.
Moisture leftin the food will cause it to mold.

Select fresh, good quality fruits and vegetables.Trim away inedible and damaged
portions. Cut into halves, strips, or slices that dry readily. Strips should be 118" to
114" thick.
After foods are dehydrated allow 30 minutes to one hour cooling time to prevent
condensation. However, too long a cooling period allows moisture from the air to
re
- enter the food.
Proper storage keeps moisture out and saves valuablenutrients. Glass jars, metal
cans or boxes with tight fitting lids, or vapor
- proof freezer cartons make good
containers. Heavy
- duty plastic bags with press together seals are acceptable, but
are not insect or rodent proof.
*Steam blanch (used for vegetables):
1 to 3 min in live steam.
*Salt water treatment (used for fruits or vegetables): prevents browning but
may cause some graying of the color. Dip fruit or vegetables in solution for
60 seconds.

1. Wash, sort, pare, peel or otherwise open up to expose the inner tissues to
the air. If you want to dehydrate whole, small fruits (grapes, small plums,
etc.), blanch to open the skins or prick them with afork so moisturecan escape.
2. Pretreat - Most fruits and vegetables require pretreatment to stop enzymatic
activity which can result in color, flavor and nutrient losses or changes.
3. Pretreatment:
*Citric acid (dissolve): sometimes sold as
" sour salt " or " lemon salt " . Dip
fruit in solution for 30 to 60 seconds.
*Lemon Juice (used for fruits): 3 tablespoons per quart of water. Dip fruit in
solution for 30 to 60 seconds.

Dry flowers are a good alternative to introduce a different decorating touch in the
home. Among the flowers that can be dehydrated, it is the eucalyptus, the roses,
static, inmortal, limonium, sunflowers and hawaiana.
The roses can be dehydrated easily in any color, but when they are red it is nec
-
essary totry to choose one that is a pale red, so whenthey dry, they don't become
too dark. Dried sunflowers are a brilliant touch in floral arrangements,mainly when
taking off the petals, the center can serve as complement in any decorating idea.
Set dried sunflowers out on the patio table as a great instant bird feeder.

*These temperatures are only for tender cuts of meat that are roasted or broiled.
Cuts such as steaks or rib roasts can be cooked to rare or medium stages. Less
tender cuts of meat, such as chuck or rump roast, or traditional dishes such as
pot roast simmered should always be cooked until the meat reaches 170 " F. This
temperature will ensure that the less tender cuts of meat are fully cooked and
become tender.
