Pretreating Fruit With Fruit Juice

A fruit juice that is high in vitamin C can be used as a pretreatment, though it is not as effective as pure ascorbic acid. Juices high in vitamin C include orange, lemon, pineapple, grape and cranberry. 

Method:
Place enough juice to cover fruit in a bowl. Add cut fruit. Soak 3 to 5 minutes, remove fruit, drain well and place on dryer trays. This solution may be used twice, before being replaced.

Note:
Each juice adds its own color and flavor to the fruit.
