For Romas, I slice them vertically into 4ths--not quarters. So instead of cutting in half, I cut into four (sometimes 5) slices. I don't seed or skin them first. I dehydrate at 140 for about 12-18 hours. I rotate the racks every 5-6 hours. I then put them in the freezer for 24 hours to finish and store in an airtight jar.I have been hunting all over DC and I can't seem to find instructions for dehydrating tomatoes or a recipe for roasting them.

I "think" it removes any remaining moisture. When I got my dehydrator, the booklet that came with it recommended putting the dehydrated stuff in the freezer for 24 hours. I've been following the manufacturer's instructions! I haven't had any of the stuff I've dehydrated get moldy because of a bit of moisture remaining.What does the freezing do?
Yup, you peel pears the same way you peel apples.Looking to do peaches and pears but I have a question on the pears ... I am going to use the Blue Ball Book but how do I know when the pears are ready? And how do I peel them, like an apple or ... ? Thank you for any information!
