The Beginner's Guide to Dehydrating Food, 2nd Edition: How to Preserve All Your Favorite Vegetables, Fruits, Meats, and Herbs

The Beginners Guide to Dehydrating Food is an excellent source of information for people who are new to dehydrating. There are a multitude of recipes for things you can dehydrate, along with few recipes that contain dehydrated ingredients. Please note that not all of the ingredients in the meals are dehydrated, so if you are purchasing this for preparedness purposes, you will need to have some fresh or canned ingredients on hand or be prepared to substitute. Overall, I would recommend this book to anyone who is serious about dehydrating and wants beginner tips and some different meals to try, especially if you like hiking or camping. One thing I really like about this book is the number of pictures that are included!

Very helpful hints

Interesting knowledge

A great start to Dehydrating! I just dehydrated Mushrooms. Make sure you actually use it, don't let it become a museum of mistakes.

I have finally found the perfect book for me. It is so full of the best information, instruction, and photos. Kudos to the author and OMGosh, the beautiful photos by Adam DeTour of each food before, during, and after dehydration! Great recipes for marinades for jerky of all kinds and instructions for machine dehydrating, oven dehydrating, and sun-drying for each food A -Z! There are even instructions on how to build your own dehydrator. I'm so happy I chose this book, I think you would be too. It's everything I could have hoped for and more for my new adventure in preserving food.

Informative and helpful

This has become my go-to dehydrating book for everything! If you have any questions about dehydrating or ever need to look up anything about dehydrating, I sincerely recommend this book. You won't regret it.
