No matter how strange it may sound, raspberries dry well. True, for this you need an electric dryer. In the oven or outdoors, this method will not work, since the raspberry is a juicy berry. She quickly begins to let juice and deteriorate. Therefore, it must be dried quickly and with strong ventilation. An electric dryer works great for this.
For drying, choose slightly unripe or ripe berries, and use overripe ones for other preparations. During drying, do not touch the berries so that juice does not start to stand out from them. You can only change the trays of the dryer in places. Dried raspberries should be easily rubbed between the fingers into a powder.
Such raspberries are perfect for brewing tea, cooking compotes and jelly, adding to pastries. Also, dried raspberries can be ground in a coffee grinder and added to creams, ice cream, desserts, decorate cakes, rolls and pastries.
Store dried raspberries in a tightly closed dry container in a dry, dark and cool place.
