What does drying mean?
Drying means completely removing the liquid part of a food item by means of temperature-controlled ventilation, and here comes the dryer to the rescue. It is a traditional and natural preservation method, which allows you to buy seasonal vegetables and preserve them for consumption throughout the year.
So drying is the most natural preservation method possible, which allows long-term preservation while preserving the organoleptic characteristics and nutritional properties of food.
With this method of preservation, the flavours and aromas of food are also best preserved.
How does a dryer work ?
The operation of the dryer is very simple:
A heating element generates heat according to the set temperature, which can range from 35°C up to 70°C, this heat is spread by a fan that generates a constant air flow, through the various perforated trays.
Unlike natural drying with the sun's rays, this gentle flow of air ensures that drying takes place more quickly and, above all, is not affected by the moisture in the air. In addition, the sun's rays alter some of the food's properties, e.g. photosensitive vitamins and flavours.
What can I dry?
VEGETABLES
Any type of vegetable can be dried easily. Ideal therefore for those who grow their own vegetable garden and do not want to waste excess produce that cannot be eaten fresh.
FRUIT
Even orchards often ripen quickly, making it impossible to consume all the fruit, with the consequent deterioration and wastage of over-ripe fruit. By drying them, we have the possibility of using 100% of the fruit produced or purchased.
MUSHROOMS( and products available at short notice )
Dried mushrooms are a speciality that many people don't want to give up; drying them is very easy, and the flavours are even enhanced. Just like mushrooms, it is possible to dry all those typical products that can only be found in limited periods or under certain atmospheric conditions.
AROMATIC HERBS AND FLOWERS
Drying aromatic, medicinal and officinal herbs is a practice that has been going on for thousands of years. So for all lovers of herbal teas and infusions, this is a great way to preserve the herbs harvested. The flowers are also very suitable for use in infusions or for decorating or flavouring dishes or desserts.
MEAT
Dried meat is not a very common product in Italian culture, but it is still a very good and practical product to use, simply to eat, or even by chopping it and using it to flavour or aromatise other preparations.
