Dehydrate For best results when dehydrating food use the Air Fry tray which allows air to circulate all around the food for faster preservation. Tips • Always use clean equipment and utensils. • Keep meat and poultry refrigerated -- 40°F (4°C) or slightly below -- before dehydrating. • Cut food in evenly sized pieces. Slices should be even and ¼ to ½ inch thick. This will ensure all pieces are dehydrated at same time. • Use good quality fruits, vegetables, and meats. Overripe or bruised fruits and vegetables may turn black while dehydrating. • Use lean cuts of meat or trim off excess fat. • Use a paper towel to dry meat before dehydrating. • Store dehydrated foods in airtight containers. If moisture appears in containers, the food was not dehydrated properly. • Follow USDA recommendation when dehydrating. To set Dehydrate: 1. Arrange food in a single layer on the Air Fry tray. 2. Touch Oven Modes and scroll to Slow Cook, then choose Dehydrate from the sub-menu. 3. Set dehydrate temperature (between 95°F -170°F). 4. Touch START. 5. Press ON/OFF to end cooking and return display to show the time of day. NOTE Check food for doneness. If any moisture is present, allow food to dehydrate longer. 35 SETTING OVEN CONTROLS Bread Proof Bread proofing creates the best conditions for yeast to multiply and cause your dough to rise. 1.
