Date: January 15, 2007 06:26PM Hi,
Just joined. I have been trying raw foods lately and would like to do more, especially with desserts and crackers. If I just want to try them to make sure I like them, would a cheapie dehydrator suffice? If my foods turn out nicely, I will invest in a proper dehydrator, but I don't want to lay out $100+ for an experiment that may fail. But would I get decent results with the $20 model from Target? I did search the archives and didn't find anything, but if there's already discussion on this topic, please direct me there. Thank you. P.S. It's just me here and I won't be preparing large amounts of food with the dehydrator, so it doesn't need to be big. Re: cheap dehydrator ok for beginner?
