Fruit Leather

http://www.durgan.org/URL/?MNFCF 4 February 2012 Fruit Leather. Apple, Pear Pineapple
New ingredients were purchased to make fruit leather. Apple, Pear and half a Pineapple. The fruit was juiced to remove moisture, mixed and dehydrated at 57C for about six hours.The juice is excellent. The end product is most pleasant, relatively sweet, a bit flexible. Hopefully, it will be a nutritional snack replacement for children. If lemon is added the taste is too tart for young palates. The end product was stored in a vacuum sealed jar and a plastic vacuum sealed bag.
