### DRYING FRUIT

     Drying fruit is not very different from drying vegetables.

    An
     electric  dehydrator  will  provide you  with  the  most

    successful
     results since the high moisture content of  most

    fruits
    makes oven drying impractical.   When drying sulfured

    fruits,
     it  is best to place the dehydrator in a garage  or

    other
    well ventilated room since the small amount of  sulfur

    fumes
    released may irritate eyes and nose.
