I put them in as I sliced until the bowl was full, then let them sit while I got the dehydrator tray out and then started taking them out and loading the tray.Angelahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13564720462613298012noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3215545723237458252.post-2660631622275602882010-05-05T09:00:04.188-06:002010-05-05T09:00:04.188-06:00Very nice!Very nice!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3215545723237458252.post-78852574021994165712010-05-05T06:57:21.280-06:002010-05-05T06:57:21.280-06:00How long did you soak the banana pieces in the wat...How long did you soak the banana pieces in the water and fruit fresh?<br />Thanks!Cliffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13252741238180706080noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3215545723237458252.post-89659872306242540422010-05-04T14:47:44.767-06:002010-05-04T14:47:44.767-06:00If you do not have a butter slicer....Use an egg c...If you do not have a butter slicer....Use an egg cutter.
