These days I’ve been doing a lot of dehydrating with fruits – especially berries – and vegetables, working with small quantities (test batches if you will) to see how well things turn out – so far, so good.

Dehydrating is fairly new to me and I could learn a thing or two about the process. A good reference book I discovered in my mother’s kitchen library is Mary Bell’s Complete Dehydrator Cookbook – a handy reference book full of information to guide you through the process of dehydrating food.

This book covers a basic history of food drying, basic facts about food dehydration, how to prep fruit, vegetables, and herbs for drying, and much more. Note: This book doesn’t cater specifically to the raw foodist, there is a chapter on drying meats and fish – if not interested, just turn the page.

The second part of the book focuses on recipes, again the recipe aren’t geared to raw but can be used as a guide to create something raw from the foods you dehydrate.

    Thanks for the recommendation! I have yet to dehydrate much in way of fruits or veggies maybe I should give it more of a try.
