To Dry Blackberries and Raspberries

Oven, in the book's wordsA cool oven

Ingredients

Directions

The book says “a cool oven”. The 300°F (150°C) in the steps is the modern equivalent, not the book's own figure.

  1. Pick the berries carefully.

  2. Place them in a cool oven at 300°F (150°C) until all the juice is dried out.

  3. Spread the berries on a cloth in the hot sun for several days.

  4. Stir them up well each morning to ensure even drying.

Transcribed from a scanned cookbook and modernised for today's kitchens. Where the book gave no heat or time, or said "a moderate oven", the temperatures and times here may be modern equivalents rather than the book's own figures.
