How to prepare dried fruit at home, storage method and benefits

Dried fruit has a very delicious and pleasant taste. These fruits are also very rich in nutrients, so they are used for better functioning of the body. In each season, only certain fruits are harvested. Delicious fruits usually have very little variety in the cold seasons, which is why humans have always thought of a way to preserve delicious fruits. Drying the fruit is a great way to diversify the fruit in meals. By using this method, you can preserve the taste and nutrients of the fruit to a great extent and enjoy consuming it in different seasons.

How to dry fruit at home

To dry the fruit at home, you must first select the best fresh fruits. Contrary to popular belief that poor quality fruits should be dried, you should know that you should use the most ripe and healthy fruits to get the best results. A very important point for producing dried fruit at home is that the most ripe fruit should be selected. If you use unripe or semi-ripe fruit, because the starch has not yet turned into sugar, the taste will be very low after drying and the texture of the dried fruit will not have the necessary softness. First you have to wash the fruits well and after peeling and separating the kernels, cut them to the desired thickness. The thicker the slices, the greater the fleshy texture of the dried fruit. At Armani Food Company, we always make sure that the size of the fruit slices is such that even an old man can eat it easily. For example, the appropriate thickness for dried apples and prunes is between 6 and 8 mm. Some fruits turn brown as soon as they are peeled and sliced. You can add a little lemon juice to prevent them from oxidizing. At Armani Food Company, we use metabisulfide and other color stabilizing materials in the permitted dose to prevent discoloration. One of the easiest ways to bulk dry fruits is to place it in the sun, which requires a little patience, this method usually takes a few days for all the fruits to dry under direct sunlight. If you want to produce dried fruit at home in the winter, heaters and radiators are also available. In summer and other seasons you can also use the oven or home dryer. My advice to you is that if you are planning to buy a home dryer, my advice to you is that if you are going to buy a home dryer, make sure that your appliance works with city gas in addition to electricity. Because the power consumption of home dryers is very high. One of the creativities you can do while working is to add homemade additives to these delicious slices. For example, after slicing an apple, add a little butter, a little cinnamon and sugar, and then put them in the dryer, Or you can even put apple slices boiled beet juice and dry them after absorbing the dye, And after 8 hours you will have a very tasty dried apple with boiled beet taste.
