Choose Which Drying Method is Right For You
Electric Dehydrating
This is the best method of dehydrating food. An electric dehydrator is
energy efficient and can be operated at low temperatures needed to maintain
nutritive values in the food. Your electric food dehydrator should have some
sort of heat control and a fan to maintain air circulation during the drying
process.
Sun Drying
This is rather difficult because you need three to four sunny days of at
least 100 degrees in a row.
Oven Drying
Oven drying is an acceptable method of drying food, but it isn't very energy
efficient, and foods aren't very flavorful in the end. If your oven cannot
obtain temperatures below 200 degrees farenheit, use another method for food
dehydration. You will need to prop open the oven door to maintain air
circulation during the drying process.
