a kitchen appliance used for drying and preserving food, typically featuring trays or shelves for placing sliced or chopped food
A food dehydrator is an appliance used to remove moisture from foods, preserving them and extending their shelf life. It works by circulating warm air over the food, gradually drying it out while retaining its nutrients and flavor. Food dehydrators are commonly used to make dried fruits, vegetables, herbs, or jerky. They typically have multiple trays, allowing several items to be dried at the same time. This appliance is popular for creating healthy snacks, reducing food waste, and preserving seasonal produce for long-term use.
