How long can dehydrated fruits like strawberries last after they are dried?

Years if packed in glass jars and the fruit is very dry. If semi moist keep in fridge for years.

If packed in glass jars, a year or so. I've packed mine in glass jars with an oxygen absorber. It seals itself and I've heard that by doing that, the shelf life can be about 5 years.

I have not kept them long, always consumed pretty quick so cant really give you a good answer

The dried vegetables and fruits last up to 2 shelf years if they remain not opened, without a problem.

No, like most dried fruit, they require no refrigeration. I recently bought these cherries and found them to be of high quality and very tasty.

They can be dried crisp or chewy, it all depends on how long you leave them in the dehydrator. I've done it both ways depending on how much I make. I will say that I do not follow time-table in the instruction manual. I typically check anything I'm dehydrating after about 3 hours, then I decide if I will use more time based on how the food looks and tastes, it's texture, I mean.

When it comes to drying fruit, there isn't a simple time/temperature. There are many variables such as water/sugar content of fruit, atmospheric temperature, and finally your drying temperature and time. As a general rule, I dry my fruits at around 130 degrees and start with 8 hours. Half way through, I check on the progress. You can always add drying time, but I wouldn't go too warm, since you are trying to preserve the enzymes in the fruit.

You will have instructions with uour dehydrator. Recipes? You really don't need any. ANY fresh fruit can be dried. I've dried tomatoes. I even took small pieces of turkey, sprinkled a little seasoning on meat and made turkey jerky.

I keep my dog's food sealed in the bag inside the box--she doesn't eat much since she' small--so her food lasts up to six months or so. Dehydrated is the way to go!

As long as they remain sealed in the ziplock bag they are shipped in and stored on a dry cool shelf they should last up to 3 months. Do not refridgerate.

Hi this is Alyssa from Palouse Brand. If wheat berries are stored in a dark, dry and cool place they can last for years.

I have had them last months in my pantry after opening. About four or five helpings worth can last a few weeks after hydration in my fridge.

I have stored them just like how they come and have had no problems. If they do dry out a bit you can rehydrate them with a little soak. I stored mine in the cupboard. Happy gardening!

I'm pretty sure these aren't intended to be stored in the fridge and weren't. I think dried mangos typically have a printed shelf life of about a year (quick google search - no official sources), but are probably safe for much longer. In my personal experience, dried mangos don't go "bad", they just get tough and chewy. I would recommend smelling them. If they smell okay, I would recommend eating them. If they are they too chewy to be enjoyable, I guess maybe write the seller about your experience and see what happens.

I use prepackaged salads and the bags work well, keeping the unopened greens fresh for about three weeks although they should be consumed sooner. Once open, the salad should keep for about two weeks. I also pack the green bag into a Debbie Meyer green box and it keeps food fresher even longer. Not as good for strawberries, however!

No, I believe they all have to have some type of expiration date by law. Freeze dried food is your best bet,its good for about 25-30 years

I really dont know....I don't think so in the dehydrated. They are about as natural as it gets..We use the dried product quite often and really enjoy the taste and the texture of the vegies and the meats and fruit as well!

I'm giving a though full guess. Unopened and being dehydrated I would guess a very long time. Years ?????

Things always dry for me from the edges inward. That is why in the instructions it tells you to put all of the fruit (or vegetables) into an airtight container to sit for a few hours or overnight so the moisture can redistribute.
