Dehydrating Celery the Easy Way!

Let's get busy dehydrating celery; this is so easy!

Wash and slice fresh celery into 1/8" thick slices, a mandoline does a fine job of this – just watch your fingers please!
Arrange on your food dehydrator trays, making sure the celery slices don't touch
Turn on your food dehydrator and set the temperature between 125°F and 135°F (or per your food dehydrator's instructions).

Dehydrated celery will be leathery when fully dried. It reminds me of tiny seahorses for some strange reason ... :-)
Drying time: between 3-10 hours.
Please remember to rotate your trays for even drying.
