Dehydrating friut in an electric dehydrator...any tips? Recipes? Storage Ideas?

According to expert dehydrators, store the food in plastic container, like Tupperware or Rubbermaid. Store dried meats in the freezer after one month. Believe it or not, I have see the tiny silicone bead packages added to dried foods coming from China and Japan. I cannot say if this is a healthy practice, but it keeps dried soybeans and other similar foods from sweating when placed in sealed bags. 'Course you have to remember not to eat the silicone! For sweatier foods like sun-dried tomatoes, I would recommend storing them in the fridge in a sealed container. While drying, you can do things to keep foods' color, like dipping apples in lemon juice so that they keep their whitish color. Peaches are the hardest to keep their color, requiring other chemicals. If you want to go natural, though, I'm afraid you'll have to leave them and suffer the "Browns". ;) Always use your dried food within a year. Store it in a dark, cool place. If in doubt, freeze it.
