Notes on making dried fruit

1, choose fresh fruit: choose fresh ripe fruit as the raw material for dried fruit. Fresh fruits not only taste good, but also rich in nutrients. Avoid using overripe or bad fruits, so as not to affect the quality and taste of dried fruit.

2, cleaning fruit: before making dried fruit, the fruit should be fully cleaned to remove the surface soil, pesticide residues or other dirt. You can wash the fruits with flowing water or mix the right amount of vinegar, then rinse them with water and make sure they are thoroughly dried.

3, remove the kernel and peel: For fruit with a kernel (such as cherries, apricots, etc.), the kernel should be removed so as not to affect the taste. For certain fruit peel (such as citrus fruits), you can choose to remove or retain, according to personal taste decision.

4. Cutting evenly: Cutting fruits into even thin slices or small pieces can help the water evaporate better and speed up the production time of dried fruits. Choose the right cutting tools, such as knives or slicers.

5. Prevent oxidation: Soak cut fruits in an acidic environment, such as lemon juice or lemonade, for a period of time to prevent them from oxidizing and discoloring. You can add the right amount of lemon juice according to your personal taste and needs.
