After dehydration is completed,
the fruit or vegetables which will
be from IA 10 l-9 their original
size may be put in alright con-
tanners and stored for future use.
II glass Jars are unavailable. a
scaled paraffin paper bag will do
as well. Bags should he placed in
covered crock or other container
(which can he kept away from
heat and light.
When the householder is ready
10 eat his home preserved foods
he merely has 10 remove them
from the container and soak in a
small amount OF water until shape
and size are restored. This ordi-
narily takes about three hours.
Then the food can be cooked as
desired, using the water in which
II was soaked. Cooking time is cut
in half. however. because of orig
inal steaming. Leafy and green
vegetables do not need soaking.
but may be cooked Immediately
in small amount OF water.

Food DehydratiOn
Also Tested Here

Detroit housewives are al
ready dehydrating certain foods
In their gas ranges" said Miss
Irene Hickey. director of the
home service department of the
Michigan Consolidated Gas Co.
I'VE have been teaching them
how TO treat green, leafy vege-
tables and various other garden
products such "a green peas and
corn. Experiments are being
carried on by the company con-
stantly and much progress has
been made.
I'VE have had favorable re-
ports on the results obtained by
the Use Of cloth trays and Of
course we are interested. IL
present experiments continue to
show satisfactory results, We
hope to he able to demonstrate
the Illinois method. or. one much

HOMEMADE TRAY

A homemade tray can be placed
on top of the metal rack. which Is
standard equipment in gas ovens,
and dehydration process is ready
for operation.
At an average dehydrating time
OF six hours, the company has fig
ured that with a 150-degree tenn
perature ordinary dehydrating job
will cost average householder
about s cents or less than one
cent per pound of fruit or vege-
tables. At the required tempera-
ture, a gas range uses around ia
cubic feet per hour.
. An additional point made by the
company is that most dehydration
would be done during hot summer
months OF July. August or Sep
TENDER when normal gas load
would be highest OF year.
