Healthy Eating: How to Dry, Use, and Enjoy Goji Berries

Goji berries are considered a superfood for a reason. Not only are they delicious, but they are also extremely beneficial for your health. These berries became popular a few years ago as a weight loss supplement. However, assisting people in shedding a few extra pounds isn't the only thing they can do.

These tiny red berries help your body protect itself from the harmful effects of UV radiation, enhance your eye health, and even assist in cancer prevention because they are packed with potent antioxidants. All in all, adding goji berries to your diet is a smart thing to do.

However, you can't store fresh berries for extended periods of time. The best way to ensure that you always have this healthy treat in your pantry is to dry them.

How to Dry

There are several methods you can use to dry goji berries. Some of them require the use of specialized tools. However, regardless of which route you choose, the end result will be the same. You'll get some delicious dried berries that you'll be able to use all year round.

Oven Drying

• Preheat the oven to 140 degrees Fahrenheit.

• Take a flat pan and place wire racks atop of it.

•  Place a layer of berries on the racks.

• Place the pan in the oven and leave the door slightly ajar.

• Leave the berries to dry, but check on them regularly. Turn them so they will dry evenly.

 

Solar Drying

 

Please note that if you live in a humid region, you should choose another option as solar drying works efficiently only in dry hot climates.

 

•  Place some wire racks on flat baking pans.

• Place a layer of berries atop the wire racks.

•  Cover the berries with cheesecloth.

• Set the pans out in the sun.

• Turn the berries once in a while for them to dry evenly.

 

Using a Dehydrator

 

If you have an electric dehydrator, drying any kind of fruit becomes easy. You will only need to prepare the berries and follow the instructions from the device's manual.

 

Note that you should crack the skin of the berries if you want for them to dry faster. Do this regardless of the method you choose.
