Guest guest Posted May 13, 2004 Report Share Posted May 13, 2004 Hello everyone! I've heard that it's okay to dehydrate in the oven, as long as it's on the lowest temperature. Does anyone know anything about this? Would you dehydrate for the same length of time specified in the recipe? Thanks, Kai Movies - Buy advance tickets for 'Shrek 2' http://movies./showtimes/movie?mid=1808405861 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 14, 2004 Report Share Posted May 14, 2004 Kai, I tried dehydrating in the oven several years ago. While visiting my Mom. I made a cracker that I always make an usually like. However after dehydrating in the oven the cracker did not taste the same. It tastes cooked. Many people think the oven is fine. However the lowest temperature on the oven is above 110 degrees. It is also recommended that you leave the oven door open. I do hope this has been helpful. Love Lynda Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 14, 2004 Report Share Posted May 14, 2004 Greetings kai and thanks for the info Lynda. Sundrying may be an inexpensive option. I got a dehydrator about 6mo ago but use it only sparingly. I think Dave and Cheryl play with it the most. I've plyes aroung w/some denser fruits like avacodoes,bannanas, mame and nuts and seeds, some dried fruits ans occasionaly phsyllium (if unroasted and come up w/all kinds of textures similar to what you get in the dehydrater. Bannana orange coconut pie, truffles, brownies. It's rewarding to experiment w/whatever tools are available even if that's just our hands, in addition to the energy being passed on to the food it's great exercise for the joint's and coordination peace, Mark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
