Quick drying preserves most of the vitamins and minerals in vegetables, herbs, fruits and berries. Products do not change color and smell, take up minimal space during storage. Previously, summer residents and mushroom pickers more often used electric dryers to preserve their crops. Then the buyers discovered other ways to use the technique - cooking delicious homemade marshmallows, jerky, spicy sausages, chips, fish. Dryers come in different shapes, sizes, capacities. For marshmallows, special trays without holes are included. They resemble ordinary baking sheets or trays. If you choose a dryer specifically for marshmallows, pay attention to the following features of an electric dryer.
Design. Dryers are of two types. The first, the simplest, consist of removable pallets that are stacked on top of each other. Air is supplied from below.The latter are similar to a microwave or electric oven. The door opens, trays and nets with products are placed inside. Air is supplied from the rear, distributed evenly by fans over all tiers. Devices of the second type are more capacious, better suited for marshmallows.
Temperature regime. Pastila is best cooked at 75°C. If the temperature is lower, drying will take longer, the marshmallow will dry out at the edges, remaining moist in the middle. The minimum temperature is 70°C.
Number of pallets. A set of dryers of the same volume can include a different number of trays for marshmallow - from 2 to 6 or even more.
Top 5. Marta MT-1872
The cheapest model in the ranking is compact, not too roomy, but copes with the task for a solid four.
- Country: China
- Average price: 3979 rubles.
- Power: 300W
- Number of pallets: 7
- Temperature: 35-70°C
We decided not to leave the rating without budget models. The size of the Marta dryer is only 26x24 cm. It will not take up much space in a small kitchen where large appliances with a door and horizontal loading cannot fit. The set comes with seven pallets - four for fruits and vegetables, three for marshmallows. The rectangular shape makes the dryer even more compact. Compared to round pallets, it is more convenient to store sausages and fish here. The height of the sections is adjustable, for bulk products it can be increased. Plus - very quiet operation, only up to 30 dB. Cons are typical for models with removable sections, heating and air supply from below. The temperature is unevenly distributed, the bottom of the products dry out faster, you have to change pallets in places.The power is small, the capacity is modest.
