D I Y: D r y f r u i t s f o r T U B ’ S H VAT Step 1: Find your fruit Most fruits can be dried easily, but whatever you choose, be sure the fruit is ripe (but not over ripe!) and in good condition. You can dry apples, pears, apricots, bananas, peaches, berries, cherries-any fruit, really. Step 2: Prep Wash or peel fruit, then pit or core them. Slice your fruit to any thickness you choose, keeping in mind the thicker the slices, the longer it will take them to dry. Be sure to keep slices uniform or else some will be too dry while others won’t be dry enough. Fruits with skins—blueberries, apricots, cherries—should be washed well and dried whole. Step 3: Take a dip Steaming fruits before you dry can speed up the process—3-5 minutes will do the trick. You can also prep these fruits and pears by letting them hang out in a bowl of lemon water—squeeze one lemon into 12 cups of water—for a few minutes. Step 4: Drying Line a baking sheet with parchment and place slices of fruit on the sheet, making sure the pieces of fruit aren’t touching each other. Place trays of fruit into the oven and turn on the oven to 90°F to 150°F. Then just sit back and wait, as it will take many hours for the fruit to dry. Resist all urges to turn up the heat—you don’t want to cook the fruit, just dehydrate it. Test the fruit every so often to see if it’s ready-fruits should be chewy, not squishy, and if it’s crunchy—well, you’ve gone a bit too far.

Step 5: Let it stand Once the fruit is out of the oven, let dried fruit sit out overnight (at least 12 hours) before packing it away in containers.

The Baal Haleshem, the grandfather of Maran R’ Shalom Elyashiv shlit”a, once had a visitor from Baghdad. The man related to him that when the Ben Ish Chai, (the rav of Baghdad at the time) was looking through his recently published sefer, Leshem Shvoi V’achlamah, he was amazed! “A sefer such as this one, deserves to be brought into shul under a chuppah accompanied by singing and dancing, just as we do when bringing in a new sefer torah ,” he exclaimed! When the Baal Haleshem heard this, he burst into tears. The visitor felt uncomfortable, “I truly apologize. I didn’t mean to hurt the rav, I only wanted to relate how much respect the Ben Ish Chai has for the rav’s torah.” With that, the Baal Haleshem stood up and showed the man into a room full of his manuscripts. “All my life I have been learning and writing kabbalah. After much hard work I finally published my first sefer, Leshem Shvoi V’achlamah, but didn’t receive any feedback or feel any appreciation for my efforts. I felt that if my work isn’t needed, then why bother? Now, so many years later, I am too

old to consider publishing more seforim. Had I heard the Ben Ish Chai’s reaction when I was younger, how much richer the torah world would have been!” The Chofetz Chaim once told his talmid, ‘’One should gaze strongly and absorb the countenance of the holy Baal Haleshem in this world, for in the world to come it will not be feasible to comprehend his greatness.” This comes to show us that no human being is too superior for our kind words. Young and old, rich and poor, scholars and laymen all have a need for our acknowledgement, praise, and words of appreciation.

Health Benefits of Eating Berries All types of berries are nutritious and low in calories. One cup of strawberries contains over 100 mg of vitamin C, almost as much as a cup of orange juice. We need vitamin C for immune system function and for strong connective tissue. Strawberries also add a bit of calcium, magnesium, folate and potassium and only 53 calories. One cup of blueberries offers a smaller amount of vitamin C, minerals and phytochemicals for only 83 calories. The same amount of cranberries is similar, but with only 44 calories, 1 cup of raspberries offers vitamin C and potassium for 64 calories. You can choose other berries with similar nutrition, such as loganberries, currants, gooseberries, lingonberries and bilberries.
More Than Pretty Colors
The pigments that give berries their
beautiful blue and red hues are also good for your health. Berries contain phytochemicals and flavonoids that may help to prevent some forms of cancer. Cranberries and blueberries contain a substance that may prevent bladder infections. Eating a diet rich in blackberries, blueberries, raspberries, cranberries and strawberries may help to reduce your risk of several types of cancers. Blueberries and raspberries also contain lutein, which is important for healthy vision.
Choosing Berries
Every grocery store carries a wide variety of fresh, canned and frozen berries. Look in the produce section for ripe, firm, brightly colored berries with no sign of mold or mushy spots. Fresh Berries are easy to eat and they don’t require much preparation. Most berries are naturally sweet so you don’t need to add sugar or toppings. Just rinse them under water and serve for a nutritious snack or dessert.
