Dehydrated fruits are soaked in hot water and then, if
necessary, cooked in the soaking water. If more water is required for
preparation, add it after that.
Soups, casseroles, sauces, and stews benefit the most from
dehydrated veggies. They can, however, be served on their own with the addition
of butter, cheese sauce, or herbs to enhance the flavor.
Fresh vegetables require less time to cook than dehydrated vegetables that have
been refreshed. Vegetables should be cooked until they reach the appropriate
firmness.
Benefits of using
dehydrated vegetables
Dehydrated fruits can be consumed raw or rehydrated and cooked till
soft. Spices or flavourings such as cinnamon, ginger, and nutmeg can be
employed to increase flavour. Dried fruits can be included in cobblers, bread,
pies, and puddings.
Only when dehydrated goods are ready for use should they be
refreshed. Rehydrated foods should not be stored. Drying temperatures are
insufficient to kill all bacteria, and spoiling can occur through quick
rehydration.
