He then peels it and dries it in the summer.

الصَّيْفِ the summer,

This noun carries the prefixed al- ('the'), marking it as a specific, known thing rather than just 'a summer'. Because the preposition before it governs it, its ending shifts into the genitive shape that prepositions demand. The leading l of al- assimilates into the noun's first letter, which is why you hear a doubled s rather than a clear 'l' sound.
