∙ 12y agoFood can be dried (dehydrated) in a dehydrator, in an oven or even in the sun. The liquid is drawn from the food, leaving it totally dried out. To rehydrate, you add water or fruit juice, depending on the type of food and heat until rehydrated. Drying foods is a wonderful way of preserving them if you can't freeze or can them.

Why dry food before storage?
Drying is a method of food preservation that works by removing water from the food, which inhibits the growth of microorganisms and hinders quality decay. Drying food using sun and wind to prevent spoilage has been practised since ancient times, and was the earliest form of food curing. Water is usually removed by evaporation (air drying, sun drying, smoking or wind drying) but, in the case of freeze-drying, food is first frozen and then the water is removed by sublimation. Bacteria, yeasts and molds need the water in the food to grow, and drying effectively prevents them from surviving in the food.
