The principle is simple. Mix the smooth fruit with any fruit you have at your fingertips or with too much, such as garden crops. You can still taste it by adding vanilla, cinnamon, pepper or syrupy syrup. You can also try different combinations, such as mixing sour currant with apple or cranberry with goji and apples. I also add seeds in an effort to give children healthy fats and other beneficial vitamins and minerals. If you have a powerful blender such as vitamix , you will completely smoothen any added or already included fruit.)
And consistency? The pure must be so dense that your blender can handle it.) So if the fruit itself is too dense because it has a higher proportion of fiber, add as much water as you need for smooth mixing.
The drying procedure in the dryer is simple. Set the temperature ideally to 40 - 45 ° C, because this temperature is the most expedient for vitamins that stay at the maximum level inside. Pour the softened purée in a thin layer onto the silicone mats that are part of the dryer, or you can use baking paper or any other pad that looks non-stick. Suitable, for example, silicone or teflon . The layer should be uniform and thick several millimeters, approximately 3-4 mm. Drying is reduced by approximately half. Drying time depends on the amount of hydration of puree and also on the thickness of the layer you are drying in, but start at 10 o'clock, and if the skin is not dry enough to go down, add the time.
If you decide to try to make these fruits in the oven, it is certainly possible, only the domestic oven has the lowest temperature at 50 ° C and you do not mind having to block it for some time by drying.)
Store these fruit rolls, whether they are cut or in larger sheets, ideally in an airtight container, so it lasts for you longest.)

Behind this strange name lies a terribly simple, healthy and lasting goodness. Priority I thought I would prepare them mainly for children as a snack in my pocket, but in the end I found for them another use. For example, I cut them into thin noodles, adding "straw" to salads where cranberries or other fresh fruit would be suitable. They are great, for example, on a goat cheese brusket, etc ..) They can also cut different shapes using the cut shapes. They are a nice and creative decoration on a plate of modern gastronomy.
