OVEN DRYING, The Best Way To Dry Foods; by Irene Crowe ISBN 0-8362-0664-9. Riced Potatoes: Boil potatoes in their jackets until done. Cool, then peel and place into ricer or striner. Do not attempt to process them unless they are cold, as they will form a gummy mess. Directions continue for oven drying, but I think we can use our gadget, since this book is dated 1976 BD (before dehydrators). When dry, store in airtight containers. Drying time: 4-6 hours in oven. To reconstitute riced potatoes, merely drop into boiling water. Use from 4 1/2 to 5 cups of water for 1 cup riced potatoes. Stir constantly for 15 mins. Shared by: Dan Klepach
