Food Preservation: Dehydrating and Drying

This is the first in a five part mini series on food preservation. Today we talk about dehydrating and drying food. We discuss the benefits and the downsides, as well as what machines we like for electric dehydrating, times for dehydrating, why conditioning is important, and what kinds of foods we enjoy preserving by dehydrating.
