Make fresh fiery Chilli powder from scratch using your Excalibur Dehydrator!

Buying an Excalibur Dehydrator opens up a world of food ideas.

Dry more of what you love with the Excalibur 10 tray. Excalibur's largest at-home dehydrator.

Sometimes your purees and leathers will look like they're completely dry, but they are not. If you are removing your fruit leathers from the Paraflexx sheets and they are sticking - your leather is not dry enough. If this happens - dry longer until the leather peels off easily.

Use your Excalibur Dehydrator to decrystallise honey. Honey stored for a long time may crystallize into a hard, solid mass. To liquefy it for use, place the container of honey in the dehydrator for 2 to 3 hours at 110ºF/43ºC until no crystals remain. This process will not affect the taste or nutritional value of the honey; it will be as good as fresh.

Since dried fruits are generally eaten without being rehydrated, they should not be dehydrated to the point of brittleness. Most fruits should have a 10 to 20% moisture content when dried.

Dehydrated Carrots are the perfect snack! A little salty and slightly sweet.

Excalibur's no mess, non-stick, and BPA-free Paraflexx Drying Sheets are perfect for making fruit leathers, rollups, crackers, and more. These multipurpose drying sheets can be used for both dehydrating and baking (they make excellent cookie sheet liners). Plus they're easy to clean and reusable for years.

Make your own trays to dehydrate milk (or other liquids like soup/broth). All you need is 1 Paraflexx drying sheet and 4 small binder clips. Great for dry pantries and hiking trips. To reconstitute, use 3 tablespoons of dried milk to 1 cup of water.
