Hi all,
Im considering drying my own fruit veg and funghi, maybe even some jerky for camp. I have no idea apart from making jerky over a fire or in the oven. So I need some advice on what to do and I also have a couple of specific questions.......
Are those electric food dehydrators on auction sites any good?
Can I just dry as is or do I need some kind of preservative? (Want to avoid anything that isnt a natural preservative if I can, a lot of dry products say they contain E numbers and sulphites etc)
Any and all advice appreciated
