− | The solar cooking is presented by special firms and home made constructions, so I (Andrew Q) tried the dehydration. Fruits (apricots, apples), vegetables (mushrooms), medical plants like elder-berry are valuable, so I dehydrated some for home use. I did not dry green leaves since they can dry too quickly, and lose their vitamin content. We are in Hungary, about the 45 degree latitude. |

Apricots (halved, without seeds) can be dehydrated in 3 days, in June-September with clear sunshine. The temperature inside is 70 C. The conservation is good, when the fruits are quite firm, but can be pressed in. So they can be stored a year in a glass with paper-napkin closing. |
