Makes great fruit rollups, May 12, 2009

I recently purchased a Nesco Food dehydrator and got these fruit roll-up sheet too. They are wonderful to dry fruits for delicious fruit roll ups. We had some apples and cranberries frozen from our recent harvest and this combination made a really good snack, my whole family loves them. We also tried plums which turned out very tasty and tart which is also a nice change. These sheets will quickly pay for themselves as we are using them frequently! The directions say you should spray the sheet before putting your fruit on to dry, well I did spray two and forgot to spray two, and all came off of the tray quickly and easily.

Have used this 3 times now and it is wonderful for making fruit rollups. The only problem I have is getting the rollups off the sheet--I already have scratched the surface. I think it is user error, not product design. We are enjoying the rollups and having fun concocting new flavors. This sheet makes it possible.

Only one of these Nesco American Harvest Fruit Roll-Up Sheets came with my Nesco FD1020 Gardenmaster Dehydrator. I find these sheets to be very useful. They can be used to dry fruit pureed to create your own tasty fruit roll-ups or other liquidy products (i.e. tomato sauce). One can also be placed on the bottom rack to catch any drippings that might fall to the bottom of your dehydrator. This makes clean-ups a snap. If you only need two of these, by all means get it from Amazon. However, if you need a dozen to increase your dehydrator's capacity (like I did when I first bought my FD1020), check out Sears online. You can get a 12-pack for under thirty-six dollars. That's about three dollars each sheet.
