Properly Dehydrated Vegetables Aid Campers This Season
Outdoor writer Robert M. Ormes notes dehydrated produce saves weight for campers with examples: potatoes from 100 lb to 17 lb, apples to 13 lb, carrots to 8 lb, onions to 7 lb. More options exist, including beets and pre cooked beans. Proper drying yields porous texture. under dried produces case hardening. Reconstitution uses soaking then simmering. do not oversoak or pre soaking. Maintain adequate water for absorption and prevent scorching. use leftover soaking water in soups or gravies.
