My NESCO SnackMaster Pro Dehydrator Recipe Book: 100 Delicious Every-Day Recipes including Jerky, Tea & Potpourri! (Fruit & Veggie Snacks)

This was a replacement for the manual to my old American Havester from 20 years ago. It has all the basic information needed to use my classic appliance.

Growing older, living on a budget, have been made a lot easier. We started with veggies and herbs from the garden. Then we got into fruit and jerky. I never realized it could be so easy and there are tons of recipes and videos available on the Internet that give great ideas. I found that a great many that did the videos used the NESCO dehydrator and were pleased with it. I know I certainly am. My wife says I am like a kid in a candy shop trying new things to do with it. Just finished some dried honey peanut butter bananas and cinnamon apples for the grandkids. I am sold on dehydrating and this dehydrator is better than sliced bread.

Good info, I just wanted it because I have a Nesco!

I love this book. It was written with my dehydrator in mind. I have only used a couple of the recipes so far but there are many more I can't wait to try. Thank you!

Recipes are mostly how to use dehydrated ingredients. I was interested in how to dehydrate tomatoes, apples etc. Error on one recipe calling it lemon cookies, but it seemed to be a stuffing. There is a lemon cookie recipe later in the book. Yea recipes not clear that you need loose leaf tea, not brewed tea until you read the instructions.

have already done 4 batches jerky my family says more also did a batch of dried mushrooms for use later will use a lot more when spring fruit comes in and then the garden love dried tomatoes for lots of uses from soup/stews to just eating

I was very disappointed. It's a nice book, but very short on my interests. I have no interest on ever doing meats or jerky ever. This seems to be something disproportionately pushed by most dehydrator books. I wanted a dehydrator for quite a while. When Wuhan pandemic hit, and I saw how disrupted the food chain was, and having limited freezer space, I based on Nesco's Snack Master Pro's rating, I bought one. I love it. I normally buy frozen vegetables but wanted to save freezer space for meat. Canned veggies are higher in sodium and have lower nutritional content due to temperature required for processing. Your book is lacking in vegetables to use as side dishes with dinner. I'm not interested in snacks or jerky or granola... my dehydrator is a tool for food preservation in a shelter in place situation. Growing season is beginning, I waste to preserve fruits & vegetables to get through the winter.

Good book for a beginner

excellent
