How do you go about drying fruit?

Answer by  berkshirebt (8)

Select ripe, blemish free fruits. Wash, remove pits or seeds and slice uniformly. Blanch firm fruits by steaming for 5 minutes and then plunging into cold water. Arrange fruit slices on a shallow tray lined with parchment paper and place in a 145deg oven for 4-12 hours.

Select, wash, cut and pit the fruit first then pretreat it however you like by Honey dipping or juice dipping and such. Then you will dry the fruit by sun drying it or oven drying it. Then you Pasteurize the fruit and store it in an air tight container and enjoy.

To dry fruit, make sure you wash the fruit and rid the fruit of any seeds or pits and slice it into small pieces. You can use ascorbic acid dip on all fruits or 5 1 gram crushed vitamin C tablets to treat it, and dry in the sun!
