Drying Fruit #1

P/13

Preparation

Wash fruit and dry with paper towels. Remove any blemishes, pips and stones, 

then slice evenly. Pre-treat where recommended. Read following table for further 

information.

Pre-Treatment

The pre-treatment of fruit is recommended to help slow down browning while the 

fruit is drying. We recommended you use a natural pre-treatment solution of 

pineapple or lemon juice. Soak prepared, sliced fruit for 1-2 minutes in the juice 

before placing on drying racks.

Blanching

Some fruits with natural protective wax coatings e.g. figs, grapes and prunes, need 

to be blanched to speed the drying process. To blanch place whole fruits in boiling 

water for 1 - 2 minutes. Then plunge into ice cold water, slice and commence 

drying.
