Summary: Cooking fruits and vegetables tends to leach vitamins and nutrients that would otherwise be present, but it can be difficult to keep food fresh enough for consumption without cooking it in some way. That is the concern that likely led to the development of the food dehydrator. Of course people have been drying fruit and even meat for centuries, but with the recent advent of healthy foods and raw foods, dehydrating food has become even more popular. Food dehydrators work by using warm air to reduce the water content of foods. Dried fruit is probably the most common thing to dehydrate but many foods can be made with the use of a food dehydrator.
In this free video series, our health food expert will demonstrate how to dehydrate food.
