Dehydrating Oranges For Fun Gifts or For Eating / Psalm 119:103
My incredibly talented niece, Christina, posted this picture of dried oranges on Facebook. It caught my attention because it is so pretty and because I love to dehydrate stuff!
I asked her if I could post the picture and she readily agreed and sent me the following information.
**
“They make great gifts or
just to keep in your own kitchen**!”
“If the oranges you dry are really sweet, then they could be eaten as a snack once dry. But if they are off season then they don’t really make a great snack, but are perfect for teas, infused water and even in recipes.
You can also sprinkle them with a bit of cinnamon or nutmeg while drying for a very fragrant result.
You can also do lemons and limes and they look really cute in smaller jars.
Four trays at 135* took about 15-17 hours to dehydrate. Once done, I let them cool completely for several hours and then used a wide mouth jar sealer to seal them.”
Thank you so much Christina for sharing this cute and delicious idea! I particularly like the idea of dropping one of these orange slices in a glass of cool refreshing ice tea this summer! Yum!
Blessings,
Catherine

How sweet are your words to my taste,
