Kurutulmuş Meyve

Cultural Context

Kurutulmuş Meyve, or dried fruit, has a rich history in Turkish cuisine, often enjoyed as a healthy snack or dessert. Traditionally, fruits are sun-dried to preserve their natural sweetness and nutrients, making them a staple in many households. This practice reflects the resourcefulness of Turkish culture, ensuring that seasonal fruits can be enjoyed year-round. Today, dried fruits are popular not only in Turkey but also around the world, often used in various dishes or enjoyed on their own.

1

Slice grapefruit into approximately 3-4 mm thick slices using a serrated knife or a thin vegetable knife.

2

Place the slices on a cutting board after cutting.

3

Repeat the same slicing process for mandarin and orange.

4

Arrange the sliced fruits on a dehydrator tray or in the oven.

5

Set the dehydrator to 57 degrees Celsius and dry for approximately 20 hours, checking periodically.

6

If using an oven, place the fruit on a wire rack and set the oven to 70 degrees Celsius with the door slightly open to allow moisture to escape.

7

Use a weight to keep the oven door ajar, ensuring the oven continues to operate while allowing steam to escape.

8

Check the fruits after about 18 hours for doneness; they should be crispy and dried out.

9

Store the dried fruits in glass jars to prevent moisture absorption.
