Dried
Fruit Chips
By Chef
Condra Easley, Patisserie Angelica, Santa Rosa, CA
Fruit
chips are a beautiful garnish that will really hit home with
that main flavor accent.
Common
fruits used for chips :
Apples
Pears
Bananas
Pineapple
Procedure:
For pears and apples slice them lengthwise for a better presentation.
Preheat oven to 225° F.
Slice
the fruit very thin. If no additional sweetness is desired,
skip the next step.
Lay
the slices out on a silicone baking mat and sprinkle lightly
with confectioner's sugar. Another method is to soak the fruit
in a simple syrup for a few minutes. This will give you a
more translucent chip.
Bake
for 75 - 90 minutes or until crisp. These won't stay crisp
for long, so keep them in a tightly sealed container.
