Thoughts on this book?
I'm looking to start dehydrating recipes and vacuum sealing them. Would this be a good book for a beginner?Thanks!
Jun 11, 2010 at 11:39 am #1619062The Complete Trail Food Cookbook: Over 300 Recipes for Campers, Canoeists and Backpackers is a title to check out as well. It came out this year. I picked it up recently (fair warning it has a different cover than Amazon shows!). They also authored a book just on dehydrating before.
Personally….if you want to learn all about dehydrating get a book on dehydrating – it will help more with times/heat settings and storage issues.
You don't need a book of recipes to make and dry – you can dry most anything. But if you want to use dried ingredients and make recipes, then yes, start looking at books.

Definitely one of the 3 books I'd have on my shelf on the subject.
