I don't make much that I cook again afterwards.

Tomatoes I usually do the little cherry ones, just cut them in half and put them open side up. They get used as sun-dried tomatoes in pasta.

In the fall I make a ton of apple sauce then puree it and dry it in sheets. It comes out like a fruit rollup not the thick fruit leather. It is my family's favourite food.

I will dry fruit that I don't think is going to be eaten in time, we just eat that dried like raisins.

Of course, beef jerky.

I dried bits of carrots one time thinking I would use them in soup but I don't think I ever did. I also did potato flakes thinking it would be like instant mashed, but they didn't come out very well.
