A healthy alternative to chips, you’ll get hooked on those crispy Truffle Kale Chips in Dehydrator. The recipe is a no-brainer, wash, season, and dehydrate until dry. If you are looking for a healthy snack, this is great.

Alternative Seasoning

These are highly adaptable: seasoned them the way you like. I’ve used a lovely truffle of olive oil and salt for this version! The combination was fantastic, but it could be a hot pepper oil or powder for a spicy kick or a lovely walnut oil. You can create whatever flavour with them or leave them naturally with salt is also great! If you are more of a spicy lover, you can always add some cayenne, chipotle or whatever hot pepper you fancy.

Preservation of Kale Chips

Once dehydrated, kale chips can be preserved for about three days in a sealed container. To keep them longer, add a bit of rice to the container to remove humidity. If you have the proper equipment, you can sous-vide them for longer. The best would be the jar sous-vide type of conservation. Also, cool them up entirely before proceeding to any conservation methods.

Health Benefits

Kale has a whole lot of iron and many other vitamins; in other words, a fully loaded nutrient food. Check this post out from Healthyline.com for the full benefits of kale!

How to Dehydrate

There are two ways to dehydrate the leaves:

1. The dehydrator machine is excellent because you are sure the chips won’t burn.
2. The oven is at the lowest temperature for 10-15 minutes, with the door slightly open, which is an excellent alternative if you don’t have a dehydrator machine.
