Ingredients
-
all courgettes entering your dryer
-
halls o flavoured salt to taste (rosemary, thyme, lemon, curry, chilli)
Preparation
Wash and dry the courgettes thoroughly. Cut them into rounds of approx. 4 mm thick, trying to keep them as uniform as possible. Arrange them in the baskets of your home food dehydrator, without overlapping them, and sprinkle them with salt or your favourite spices.
Drying
-
If you use Biosec: set programme P2 Mushrooms and Thin Slices o P3 BioCrudist.
-
If you use another model: adjust the temperature between 40 and 50 °C until completely dry.
When they have become small and crispy, you can enjoy them immediately or serve them to your guests.
Conservation
Transfer chips still warm in airtight glass jars and store them in a cool, dry and dark place. This way they will retain their crispness and fragrance for longer.
