Abstract
Drying is the oldest known method of preserving food. Historically, food was dried in the sun. Nowadays, we can sun dry or dry in an oven or a dehydrator that is especially designed for home drying. Drying has many advantages. It is safe. By removing most of the moisture from a food, microorganisms can't grow in it. Dried food is compact so that less storage space is needed. Plus, dried foods keep well, travel well and add variety to our diets. For more information, refer to publication PNW0397, "Drying Fruits and Vegetables."
