Process
Shared Prep:
|
Method One:
- Soak in water.
- Total number of soaking days is dependent attributes of the
vegetable. Cucumbers are quicker than carrots.
|
Method Two:
- Some light cooking is used in conjunction with soaking.
- Cooking shortens the number of days needed to reach the desired
consistency.
|
Shared Method:
- Roll vegetable slice daily with a rolling pin until the vegetable
becomes spongy (time varies):
Cucumber - 1 day
Carrots = may take several weeks
- Lay out the "paper" on pellon. Place vegetable on a cloth
so that the pieces overlap.
- Place another cloth on top and press for approximately an
hour.
- Remove from the press and change the cloths and keep changing the
cloths until your papyrus is dry.
- The cloths must be changed a minimum of once a day to reduce the
risk of mold. This is the time when mold is most likely to
occur.
