Canataloupe cut into 3/4 " cubes 3/4 cup powdered sugar 1 tbsp. powdered ginger Mix ginger and sugar together Dip one side of each piece into sugar mixture Place dipped side up on a mesh lined dehydrator tray For raw food dty at 110 degrees or up to 135 degress for regular drying. Deb
I think you probably could dry it in an oven- the food dehydrator directions say thet fruit is dry when it gets "leathery". If you dry it and put it in a plastic bag and moisture condenses inside the bag it needs to be dried a little longer. Deb 10% off all ready made Tutus@ http://fairiesflowersandfireflys.blogspot.com
I have my dehydrator finally! I was gifted one by a wonderful woman who recieved one as a gift and didn't want it. I am makin some cantaloupe candy for my girls on wednesday. I will be pickin up some melons tuesday night, but I already have tomatoes in the dehydrator since I didn't have enough to can and we won't be home much the next 2 days. I don't want them to go bad, so I'm dryin them!
