Ph. 758-3572 Excerpts iron DISTRICT HOME ECONOMIST NEWS A simple and quite nutritional way to preserve most fruits and vegetables is by food drying— bulk in storage is decreased, & the foods are lightweight & easy to carry after drying. Pre-drying treatment of vegetables includes blanching. For fruits, pre-treatment usually involves the sulphuring process. Home dried foods may be prepared indoors or out. Oven baking at 60 to 65 degrees celcius is an inexpensive choice when drying foods. Sun drying and solar drying are two other methods that may be used. Both of these last methods, however, depend on weather conditions. I would be pleased to offer you more infor­mation. I can be contacted at Alberta Agriculture in Cardston, or you may call your local district home economist and ask for the publication on food drying. Try something different this summer!
