Cucumber Chips
Report
These Cucumber Chips are an easy dehydrator recipe that uses only 3 ingredients. They are thin, crunchy, just like potato chips and just as addicting.

Ingredients
- 1 large English Cucumber or 6 Persian Cucumbers sliced 1/16 inch thick
- 1 tablespoon dried dill
- salt
Instructions
- Place the cucumber slices in a single layer in your dehydrator.
- Sprinkle each rack with dill and salt. Use the salt sparingly. A little goes a long way with this recipe.
- Turn the dehydrator on and then dry for a few hours or until the cucumbers are dried thoroughly. Once the chips are finished, they are ready to eat. Or store them in an airtight container in the fridge for a few days.

Notes
- No need to peel the cucumber! Plus, the peel adds extra nutrient density.
- It’s very important that all the cucumbers are cut at the same thickness (1/6 inch thick). A mandolin or food processor with a slicing blade is ideal.
- This is a similar food processor to what I used but it’s quite large. If you don’t need a larger capacity food processor, this one is smaller and more affordable.
- Fresh dill is a good substitute for dried.
- You’ll need a dehydrator for this recipe. This is the one I used.
- Cucumber chips with ranch seasoning would be a great alternate to dill and salt.
- You will need a dehydrator for this recipe. The cucumbers are so thin that they can’t be placed on a solid flat surface like a baking sheet or even parchment paper. They would just stick to the pan. They need a dehydrator with trays that have openings. It helps the heat flow evenly around the cucumber and doesn’t give it much surface area to stick too.
- If you find your cucumbers are sticking to the trays, flip them halfway through the drying time.
