ABSTRACT:
A new vegetable drying apparatus consists of a net bag or perforated plastic bag placed inside an outer imperforate plastic film bag, both bags being provided with handles or other means for holding the same for manual rotation at relatively high speed. The washed vegetables which are to be dried are placed in the net bag, which is, in turn, placed inside the outer imperforate bag. The two bags are held together as a sling and manually rotated at a sufficiently high speed to remove water from the vegetables by centrifugal force. The water removed from the vegetables is collected inside the imperforate bag instead of being thrown out into the area where the bags are rotated or slung around. After use, the inner bag is removed from the outer imperforate bag and the vegetables, free of surface water, are removed. The water collected in the outer bag is poured out and the bag turned inside out to dry, if desired. An alternate embodiment includes a water absorbent liner, e.g. terry cloth or the like, positioned inside the outer imperforate bag.
