Drying Meat
Preparation Directions
Trim excess fat from the meat and slice into thin strips. Marinate your meat in the
refrigerator for 6-8 hours in marinade of your choice. Place meat to dry on a
non-stick mesh liner and place fruit roll-up sheet under tray to catch any excess
drips. Then dry meat uninterrupted for 8-10 hours
Storage
Store dried meat in an air-tight container. Refrigerate if storing for any length of
time. The recommended shelf life is 3 months. Be sure to test for dryness every
2-3 weeks.
Drying Flowers
You can dry your own flowers, blossoms and petals using your new Luvele
express
Food Dehydrator.
Preparation Directions
Cut flowers when they are dry and cool. Choose flowers that are firm but only
half open. Full bloom flowers tend to lose their petals. Position your flowers and
petals sparsely on the drying trays and dry for 8-10 hours until flowers are brittle.
To make potpourri use a handful of flowers, blossoms and petals and combine
with 3-4 drops of perfumed oil e.g. tea rose or lavender. Arrange flowers, blossoms
and petals sparsely on the drying trays then dry for 6-8 hours. When drying is
completed, place flowers into a large air tight glass container and apply another
3-4 drops of perfumed oil.
