Which Food Dehydrators are Perfect for your Kitchen? : The 'How to Cook' Blog

Well, I broke down for a Panko Chicken Salad with Chili Lime Dressing from Sobey's, and a fruit bowl. That's healthier than McD's. :) # 2012/05/19

Which Food Dehydrators are Perfect for your Kitchen?

Posted by Kimberly on Jan - 19 - 2012 with 0 Comment

If you have never used a food dehydrator before, well you’re missing out.

Once you start, you’ll think of a hundred things you’ll want to dehydrate all of a sudden…fruit, vegetables, jerky, even flowers & herbs!

For instance, you have a plethora of tomatoes in your garden, but don’t feel like canning them all, dehydrate the slices.

If you have an overgrown batch of basil or mint, it’s a great way to dehydrate them and store them in your cupboard for the winter season.

Onions & mushrooms work well too, and are always a welcome addition in soups & stews.

However, which dehydrator should you buy? This can be the dilemma…Should I buy one of the Excalibur dehydrators or from L’Equip, or even a less well-known name brand?

Are they all created equally? Well, no they are not.

So, before you buy a new food dehydrator, read the reviews and then check out the recipes afterward available at a place I found online called Dehydrator Book.

They have plenty of advice on how to shop for the best fit for your kitchen & your needs, as well as instructions on how to use a dehydrator all from an easy download.

They actually feature reviews on some of the top brand of food dehydrators including Excalibur, L’Equip & Nesco dehydrators, so you have all the information you need when looking to buy a dehydrator.
