Dried Tomato Chips

Ingredients

• 2 lb (900 g) firm ripe tomatoes
• 1/2 tsp salt, optional
• 1/2 tsp dried herbs, optional

Instructions

1. 1

   Wash and dry tomatoes, then slice evenly about 1/4 inch thick.

2. 2

   Arrange slices in a single layer on dehydrator trays without overlapping.

3. 3

   Season lightly if desired.

4. 4

   Dehydrate at 135°F (57°C) until dry and leathery to crisp, usually 6–10 hours depending on thickness and humidity.

5. 5

   Cool completely before packing so trapped warmth does not create condensation.
