[at-l] Got me a dehydrator

[daveh@xxxxxxxxxx (Dave Hicks)]

Yep.  Do it all the time.

You might want to start with bags of one type of veggie at a time.  Things
dry at different rates -- mostly based on size.  So, if you were dying
succotash (as an example) the corn would be brown crispies before the beans
were anywhere near dry.

Also, I stay away from things like onions.  They are cheaply available in
dried form and will really stink up the house.

Well I took the plunge and I bought a dehydrator from wal-mart today.

I was wondering if I could dehydrate the frozen vegetables I buy at my local
grocery store?

Any suggestions things to dehydrate that are easy for this beginner?

Also anyone know of a good site to get tips. ...  The book that came with
mine is pretty vague.

Thanks
Sparky!
