Let's talk about the protagonist of our evaluation today-Murphy MR6255 Dried Fruit Machine. Friends who have played in Tik Tok know that there is an "online celebrity pot" that once swept the country. It is Murphy Murphy multifunctional pot, which can be described as "dual-use for military and civilian purposes".
The Murphy MR6255 Dried Fruit Machine evaluated this time, also known as "home food air dryer" and "DIY snack machine", is different from the large-scale "air dryer" in professional restaurants. Murphy's dried fruit machine is positioned as "DIY artifact of family snacks". He can cook dried meat, dried fruits and dried peppers, so that ordinary families can enjoy the fun of "making" dried fruits! In addition, it can also make various snacks to satisfy the appetite beyond three meals.
Bian Xiao's Murphy MR6255 Dried Fruit Machine is a blue version with a size of 272mx290mx210mm, which is small and exquisite. The surface adopts exquisite piano painting technology, which feels smooth and looks classy. In fact, Murphy MR6255 Dried Fruit Machine can dry all kinds of ingredients, besides all kinds of fruits, it can also dry meat, medicinal materials, scented tea and vegetables. Users are advised to read the instructions carefully before use!
On the top of Murphy's MR6255 Dried Fruit Machine, there are two striking mechanical adjustment knobs, which can control the temperature and time. In the middle of the knob is a small LED screen, which can display the time and temperature. There is a sticker above the knob, which clearly indicates the drying temperature and drying time of the five ingredients.
Among them, fruits should be baked at 60-80℃ for 6- 10 hour, vegetables at 45-75℃ for 4-8 hours, meat at 35-70℃ for 2- 12 hours, cauliflower at 40-60℃ for 2-6 hours, and medicinal materials. Of course, there is a warm reminder below: "The above temperature and time are for reference only, and the actual time depends on the shape, thickness and moisture content of the ingredients."
Let's take a look at the inner cavity of Murphy's MR6255 Dried Fruit Machine. There are four layers of mesh extraction layer and one layer of metal dyeing plate (bottom layer), in which food slices are placed. There is no obvious mechanical fixing device to close and open the front cover, but it is locked by "magnetic induction". There is also a transparent baffle about 6-7 inches in the middle of the front cover, which can be used to observe the dehydration process of food with naked eyes. There are four anti-skid pads at the bottom, which are very firm on the marble countertop.
Well, after showing the appearance, Bian Xiao can't wait to make healthy dried fruits and meat ingredients by himself. I found a place in the kitchen and finally put it on the microwave oven. It doesn't occupy land, is high and is easy to operate with both hands.
I specially went to the fruit shop to buy fresh strawberries and bananas, and also went to the vegetable market to buy a catty of fresh beef. Next, I will bake these three ingredients for you. It's still a little frozen. First of all, according to the official advice, I bake fruit at 80℃. The following is the cutting process before baking. You can cut it thin or thick according to your preference:
△ Fresh strawberries are cut in half, and the leaves must be removed.
△ I can't wait to put it in the dried fruit machine, one layer is enough.
After waiting for 6 hours, the dried strawberries finally came out. I can't wait to taste one, it tastes a little sour and sweet, and there is a little wet taste in the middle. If you like the taste of 100% dehydration and not "wet" at all, an extra baking time of 1-2 hours should be enough.
Go on, it's banana's turn this time:
Dried bananas are similar to dried strawberries. Take out two bananas, peel them and cut them into small pieces of about 3mm, spread the sliced bananas in a dried fruit machine and bake them at 80 degrees for 3 hours. Here is a little trick to tell you, try to avoid buying too ripe bananas, which taste bad after drying.
After baking for three hours, I finally saw the finished banana.
I tasted a slice, and personally thought it was better than the dried bananas in the supermarket. The surface of dried bananas in the supermarket is covered with a layer of syrup-like objects, which will increase the sweetness of dried bananas, and I guess it also plays an antiseptic role. The dried bananas baked by Murphy's MR6255 preserved fruit machine are crisp in every bite, and you still want to eat them.
As for the practice of beef jerky, because it needs pickling, the steps are complicated:
Materials required:
500g beef melon strips, 30ml soy sauce, 5g soy sauce 10ml salt, 4 slices ginger, 3 cloves garlic, 20ml allspice powder 10g cooking wine, star anise 1, 5g clove, 2 slices fragrant leaves, 5g pepper, and cumin 10g.
My method:
① Wash beef and cut it into sections about 325px long, and then cut it into long strips with thick thumbs;
(2) Add light soy sauce, dark soy sauce, allspice powder, salt, ginger slices, garlic and cooking wine, mix well, and refrigerate for one night;
(3) The next day, take it out and pour it into a multifunctional pot together with the marinade, then add star anise, clove, fragrant leaves, pepper, cumin and crystal sugar, then pour in fresh water without ingredients, cook it on high fire for 65,438+00 minutes, then turn to low fire for 40 minutes, then take it out and let it cool;
(4) Spread the meat strips in a dried fruit machine and bake at 45 degrees for 2 hours to make dried meat.
Objectively speaking, Murphy MR6255 Dried Fruit Machine looks small in size, but its internal capacity is indeed not small. Four layers can be roasted at the same time, which ensures the efficiency of roast beef. Of course, all kinds of meat can also be mixed and roasted, for example, the first and second layers are beef slices, the third layer is diced chicken, and the fourth layer is fish slices.
In addition, it can also be used as scented tea (such as dried chrysanthemum) and medicinal materials (such as Cordyceps sinensis) to dehumidify dried fruits and air-dried noodles and peppers. In addition, when summer comes, fruits will be made into dried fruits, so don't worry about deterioration.
Taste evaluation:
To tell you the truth, this is the best beef jerky I have ever eaten. Maybe it's because the fruits of labor are in it. This taste is not as hard as the seasoned beef jerky bought in the supermarket (bad mouth can't chew bad), the hardness is moderate and the taste is not so salty. I can eat three bowls of white rice. Because Murphy MR6255 Dried Fruit Machine adopts 360-degree hot air circulation system, each layer is heated evenly and the taste of food is guaranteed. Therefore, compared with the oven or microwave oven, its baking effect will not be very wooden or dry (the kind that can't be bitten), and it will also save electricity.
Finally, maybe you will ask, why do you want to make dried fruits yourself? Just go to the supermarket to buy it. Bian Xiao believes that the dried fruit made by Murphy MR6255 Dried Fruit Machine has fresh ingredients and the process is witnessed by himself. Secondly, don't worry about adding preservatives. Most importantly, if you like snacks, please help yourself. This process is very interesting. Moreover, the baking process is intelligently controlled and no one needs to take care of it. It's actually no trouble.
It is worth mentioning that the price of 499 yuan for Murphy MR6255 Dried Fruit Machine is not expensive, which is equivalent to the price of a microwave oven or rice cooker. During June, the price of vermicelli is only 469 yuan, which can be saved by making beef jerky several times. And Sun+Sun short video has the opportunity to get the online celebrity juice cup. Fruit juice+dried fruit may be the most correct way to open this summer!
