Practical tips for cooking pastilles in the Isidri dryer

One of the most popular delicacies, which allows you to cook a dryer "Isidri" (consumer reviews confirm this fact) - this, of course, fruit pastilles. Her with pleasure eat both adults and children. Also, it can be made puree by diluting one to one with water. If you fill the fruit pastyl with boiling water in a ratio of 3: 1, you get a delicious jam. It is also good as a filling for pies or a layer in biscuit cakes.

Let's get acquainted with some practical tips that will help to prepare this yummy correctly.

To prepare the pastille fruit can be grated or cooked with mashed potatoes (then the pastilles will be thinner). A more even pallet is obtained, the mass for which is prepared with a blender. Quickly oxidized fruits, such as pears or apples, are recommended to be pre-cooked and cooled. Cooking mashed potatoes is preferable from overripe fruit. In the mass for the pastille, honey or sugar is optionally added. You can not sweeten at all, preserving the natural taste of fruits, which is quite real, if the dryer produces Isidri dryer.

Recipes of pastille provide for its preparation not only from fruits, but also from berries. However, often the finished product turns out to be brittle. To avoid this, it is recommended to combine berries with some fruits. Then the pastille probably will not be fragile and, moreover, in this way you can reduce the number of seeds in it.

The pallet should be lightly greased with vegetable oil. Otherwise, sticking of the pastille is possible. When spreading the mass over the pallet, try to keep the layer thinner in the middle than at the edges. For the Snackmaker FD500 tray, it is recommended to use no more than 1 cup puree, for Ultra FD1000 - no more than 2 cups. The smaller the applied mass, the thinner the pastille and the faster it will be cooked. Avoid mashing the base of the dehydrator, as this may damage it.

It is advisable not to move the machine during the preparation of the pastille. The drying time averages from 12 to 16 hours. Pastila is considered ready when it ceases to stick in the center of the pan. The exception is a product from berries or bananas. Such a pastille can slightly stick.

The finished product is removed from the pallet in a warm state, rolled into a tube and cooled. Store the paste preferably in an airtight container in the refrigerator. This method helps to store it for a long time.
