All my vegetables are in full swing now, and at the moment I have a glut of tomatoes. A few weeks ago I picked up a dehydrator from lakeland, and now it is time to use it in earnest!
First I sliced all the tomatoes in half, and removed any bad bits, then I placed them on the dehydrator trays and left the dehydrator on. Every now and again I swapped the order of the trays and removed any tomatoes that had reached the correct level of dryness (a bit like raisins.)
Once all the tomatoes were dehydrated I packed them in glass jars and covered with Extra Virgin Olive Oil – I now have a couple of jars of ‘potted summer’ ready for the winter time…
