Air drying is a natural method of removing moisture from items, such as clothes or food, by exposing them to air. This process relies on the movement of air and the surrounding environment to evaporate water, making it an energy-efficient alternative to using machines like dryers or dehydrators. Commonly used for laundry, air drying can be done indoors or outdoors, depending on the weather. In food preservation, air drying is often used for fruits, herbs, and meats, helping to extend their shelf life without the need for refrigeration or additives.
