ENGLISH          

–  Checking the food readiness, do not touch the prod-

ucts with your hands; use a fork, a spatula or other 
kitchen tools.

–  Do  not  allow  pets  to  enter  the  kitchen  during  food 

dehydration.

Choosing vegetables and fruit for drying

- Use only fresh fruit or vegetables.
- Only ripe fruit are suitable for drying, green fruit may 
acquire a foreign flavor. 
- Overripe fruit may change their color after drying. 
- Cut off any rotted parts.
-  Not  all  vegetables  are  suitable  for  drying  because 
unlike the fruit vegetables contain less sugar and acid. 
It  is  recommended  to  freeze  some  vegetables,  for 
instance broccoli or asparagus, better than to dry. 
–  Vegetables are ready if they are hard and dry.

Preparation of products

–  Wash the products carefully. 
–  Remove the stones and rotted parts of the fruit.
–  If  necessary,  peel  off  the  vegetables  skin.  Always 

peel off the skin if the vegetables are covered with 
wax. 

–  Remove the fruit stalks.
–  Cut the vegetables or fruit in slices or cubes.
–  Berries or grapes should be dried whole.
–  Dry the greens or spice herbs whole with stems.
–  If you want to improve the taste and prolong the stor-

age life of the products, preprocess them. This is not 
obligatory. 

–  Try  drying  preprocessed  products  and  not  pro-

cessed products and decide which way of cooking 
suits you better.

Preprocessing of fruit

–  You can use pine apple, lemon, orange or lime juice 

to keep natural color of fruit. Dip the fruit pieces into 
the  juice  for  2  minutes,  then  let  them  dry  and  put 
them on the trays (7). 

–  Use natural juice made of the same type of fruit that 

are intended for drying (for instance, apple juice for 
apples) to enhance the natural taste of fruit. Dilute 
1/4 glass of juice with two glasses of water; soak the 
fruit in the solution for 2 hours.

–  Some  fruits  are  covered  with  layer  of  natural  wax 

(dates,  grapes,  cranberry,  plums  etc.).  To  remove 
the  wax  and  speed  up  the  drying  of  products  put 
them into boiling water for 1-2 minutes. 

Preprocessing of vegetables

Preprocessing  of  vegetables  destroys  ferments,  that 
cause  the  change  of  taste  of  products  during  the 
storage. 
Steam  treatment  or  microwave  oven  treatment  of 
vegetables is more preferable than boiling water.
–  Put the vegetables on the upper tray of the dehydra-

tor and warm them up for 2-3 minutes. Right after 
that put vegetables on the trays (7).

–  Put  the  vegetables  into  a  container  suitable  for 

microwave  oven,  add  some  water.  Cover  the  con-
tainer with a lid and put it into a microwave oven. Set 
the time that makes 1/4 of cooking time, specified in 
the instruction manual for your microwave oven. Put 
ready vegetables on the trays (7).

–  Put  the  pieces  of  vegetables  into  boiling  water  for 

3-4 minutes, the take them out, dry them with paper 
towel and then put on the trays for dehydration (7).

Temperature and duration of dehydration
Food dehydration time indicated in the tables may 
be used for reference only, because time of drying 
for  every  ingredient  is  set  experimentally  and 
depends  on  the  quality  and  size  of  the  used  food 
products, temperature and relative humidity of the 
room.

After  learning  the  food  dehydrator  better,  you  will  be 
able to set the desired time of dehydration by yourself.
Ready fruit should be soft, without moisture. Overdried 
fruits are stored worse and contain fewer nutrients. 
Dried vegetables should be hard and brittle. 

Note: 

If you didn’t dry all products at a time, you can 

continue  drying  at  any  appropriate  time.  In  this  case 
let  the  products  in  the  trays  (7)  cool  down  to  room 
temperature, put them into polyethylene bags or food 
containers and place them in the freezer.

Additional functions

Herbs, flowers, spices

–  Practically all herbs are suitable for drying. 
–  Dry  spice  herbs  together  with  stems,  separate 

leaves from stems after drying.

–  Make sure that the herbs are well-dried; otherwise 

they may start to rot.

–  You  can  use  dried  flowers  for  making  fragrant 

sachets.

Drying of meat and fish

–  You  can  dry  raw  or  cooked  meat  or  fish. 

Preprocessing of meat or fish keeps you healthy and 
is obligatory. 

–  You  can  use  dried  meat  or  fish  for  making  first  or 

main  courses.  Before  use  soak  it  in  water  or  broth 
for 1 hour. 

–  Dry only lean meat without fat (for instance, beef or 

poultry meat) and only fresh fish.

–  Marinade or boil fish and meat preliminary.

Recipe of the marinade

0,5 glass soy sauce
1 tea spoon cut garlic
2 tbl. spoons tomato paste
1,25 tea spoon salt
0,5 tea spoon ground pepper

Cooking of jerked beef

Cut  beef  into  small  thin  pieces  against  fiber.  Put  the
