 The ingredients may be a bit uncommon....but the theory is the same, no


 matter what fruit you use, so make cherry leather...or orange


 leather...or....well you get the idea.


 


 PUREES, FRUIT LEATHERS & CHIPS: Fruit leathers are dried leathery sheets of


 pureed fruit. Fruit chips are made from crisp fruit leather that breaks


 easily. Both have tangy, concentrated fruit flavor that makes them a


 favorite snack for anyone, especially handy to pack in a lunch or rucksack.


 Much of the following information about making purees, fruit leathers and


 chips and the individual recipes are excerpted and adapted from University


 of Alaska Cooperative Extension Service Bulletin P-228, "Fruit Leather"


 


 PUREE: To make berry purees, rinse berries, drain, put in a blender and


 blend until the consistency of thick puree. Most berries do not need to be


 cooked. Salmonberries and highbush cranberries have larger seeds and should


 be put through a sieve after blending to remove seeds.
