I can't afford a decent blender but I use my magic bullet and then I sift the ground zucchini. What passes through the sieve is for flour and the bigger bits is snuck into soup or spaghetti sauce for unsuspecting fussy grandkids. 😊

I’ve found that I always have to dehydrate longer than the manual or recipes call for. I live in the Deep South and the humidity is brutal! And I, too, have forgotten things in the dehydrator and had to re-run it. Oh well…

I'll have to try this with store bought squash this year because we didn't have a good production this season either. Usually we are overrun with squash lol. I'm glad I found your channel and got back into dehydrating foods. It's been decades since I used one regularly. I'm using an older (one temp) dehydrator for now and have dried quite a bit of our garden produce this season. Looking forward to doing much more dehydrating along with my usual canning. Thank you for showing new things to dehydrate and recipes for them!

Hey lady. Could you please do a video showing us how to make smoked paprika. I am wanting to make my own using my bumper crop of pimento peppers and I am needing the help of a professional. If you don't want to or can't, I totally understand. If you are able to, that would be FABULOUS. Hope you are all well and that you are no longer down with the sickness. Take care, may God bless you and yours. Bye for now.

You can raw pack, waterbath can any squash with a bit of lemon juice and fruit juice. Apple juice give apple flavored, pineapple gives... You guessed it, pineapple. Use it like you would a can of that fruit, pies, cakes, turnovers, etc.

It loses so much of its body when frozen, but if you have it frozen in a state you want it in, you can dry it. Powdering can come from any version of fresh or frozen.

Darcy - off topic for this video, but I thought you had done a video on dehydrating black olives (#10 size cans I got at a great price) but I can't find it. Is it an OK thing to dehydrate? & if so, will hot water rehydrate them and look at least reasonably edible? 🤷🏻♀️ Thanks in advance. I love your videos & my "dried" stores are growing!! God bless you & yours 🙏

Yellow squash is the one thing that grew really well in my garden this year. I have so much! I was planning on dehydrating it anyway so now I think I will make some into a powder and see how it goes. Thank you for the timely video!
I live in FL. Still having trouble with clumping.. I add arrowroot powder, a desiccant and vacuum seal after each use. Do you have any advice for humid climates??
@ThePurposefulPantry
Жыл бұрын
It depends on what's clumping. If you condition the powder before storing, don't open and use over the stove, don't bother vacuum sealing (that can create a clumping affect on some things). www.thepurposefulpantry.com/keep-dehydrated-powders-dry/

⭐️⭐️⭐️I think I know the answer to this and wasn’t sure where to post the question, so I’m putting it here in hopes of getting an answer. Am I correct that you should not add newly dehydrated items to previously stored ones in the same jar?

No - you can certainly add them together - as long as they are both properly dry. I give myself about a six month window - older than 6 months that haven't been rotated I use up and start a new jar for the newer projects - but there's no set rule.
