We got some great ideas, tips, and tricks on how to use a food dehydrator to reduce food waste at home.
A dehydrator works by blowing warm, dry air over foods, slowly removing moisture and drying them out.
“Dehydrators are typically very easy to use: load the trays with whatever you’re drying, set the temperature, and wait,” Stroud says. For best results, he recommends only dehydrating one type of thing at a time, since different ingredients require varying temperatures . He also recommends spacing things out on your trays, since cramming them together will impede airflow, and “things might get gross instead of dried.”While it might seem like a fancy restaurant thing to dehydrate, say, smoked onions to season pastrami carrots , dehydrating has its practical, waste-saving applications at home, too.
