Just weigh your food before and after freeze drying to know exactly how much water to add when rehydrating

She is completely right, that you don’t have to have a cellar. I have a pantry like hers, and it’s indoors. It is in a room without windows, so that stabilizes the temperature some. We don’t store fresh food there though. Fresh and fermented foods, I keep in an old fridge in the garage. I am a little on the fence when it comes to buying a freeze dryer. Yes, it makes for better saved foods, but it’s also very expensive. A friend of mine told me to calculate how much I spend on freeze dried foods a year and incorporate that. On average I spend 300$ a year on that. That would mean, that it will take me 10+ years for it to have paid for itself in saving. I don’t think that’s realistic for us, especially since a lot of what they freeze dry, like for example broth, can be done in a regular dehydrator. I also like having broth on the shelve, simply because it’s faster and simpler, than having to rehydrate the powder. We only use the powder, if we want to add extra flavor to a stew or sauce, otherwise I use liquid broth. Take rice for example. I cook them in broth, since that adds extra nutrients and flavor. If I only had the powder, I would have to boil water, and rehydrate the powder first. As for eggs. I have seen those rehydrated, and it can be hard to get the lumps out when you rehydrate them, and they are already scrambled, which limits what you can use them for. Fresh clean unwashed eggs, can be preserved in lime water (water glassed), for 12+ months. Fresh unwashed eggs, will last up to 7 months in the fridge. Out chickens slows down production in November and start up again in February. So, I only have to preserve enough eggs for 3 months. During peak season, we get over a dozen eggs a day, but we only eat about half of that. Any perfectly clean eggs we get in that period gets water glassed. All of the dirty ones, and put in the fridge. You can’t wash them before hand, since that destroys the bloom, which is what will keep the eggs fresh. We eat the oldest eggs first, so in the end, the eggs we eat from November to February has only been in the fridge for about 4 months, the water glassed eggs we eat, never get older than 8 months. All I have to do, when we are ready to eat them, is wash them. The cold stored ones, because of dirt, and the water glassed ones because lime taste bad.

I can’t eat eggs, milk or cheese, every time I return to eat them, I get sinus congestion, and skin eczema. When I do stop using that everything clears up. Even meat too. So I’m plant based only eating real food, nothing processed I only consume what I can grow here in tropical Puerto Rico. I live in the mountains, in a cow manufacturing farm fields. Our cows as pasture raised, so I know they only eat grass fed. I only consume what we grow here in the island, they have strict laws about farm animals. I grow my own produce. And I also purchase from farm products every Friday morning from my local farmers. I don’t buy anything that’s imported

@@gladtidings4all - I'm like that too but because of alpha gal (an often severe or even lethal allergy to meat & meat products EXCEPT for poultry & fish). I end up storing a lot of veg powders & some fermented things, but usually freezing a LOT of soups. Having my own chickens helps a lot, though I do buy animal feed (fermenting that helps reduce the cost significantly too) but supplement that with all kinds of garden weeds year round for the chickens (southern US).

I freeze dried a bunch of the lemon slices and then blended them up in the vita mix for powder, and I will tell you it’s the best! They were Meyer, lemons, sweet and boy was it great to have a hot cup of ginger tea with honey with that powdered lemon when I was sick just recently. I lived off it. Can’t wait to have gallons more of powdered lemon. I got the powdered ginger at Trader Joe’s but now I can freeze dry and powder my ginger as well.

Nice pantry tour, the O2 absorber removes oxygen, but doesnt remove any moisture, if you're worried about moisture getting into a jar, etc. you can add a silica pack, although most times arent needed. Nice thing with freeze dried items they last @ 25+ yrs shelf life, in addition to the higher nutrients saved, etc. It is higher cost, and maintenance of the pump, etc. and its loud and warm when its operating, so helps to have in a garage/side room, etc. but if you save a variety of foods, it's the best way to go long term. Freeze drying has been in use for decades in Military Rations which while not rated for decades long storage, if you've seen channels where ppl try them 40-50 yrs after the fact, they can be surprisingly good. A new method of preserving is being tested now, instead of freeze drying, its Featuring Vacuum Microwave Dried and Sonic Compressed food that takes a fraction of processing time to make than freeze dried, with it's highly advanced, palatable, and nutritious components, it is the new shelf stable food.kzfaq.info/get/bejne/rtODiLqmmJ3IpGg.html

Realistically from someone who has been self sufficient for 30 years, a canning/preserving pantry should not look like this in early spring. It should be running low by now unless the owner is relying on a lot of outside sources for their food supplies. The use of the word "supposed" is pretty telling. Remember folks, if you don't really know how to get and preserve your food, whatever is in your stash, is a LIFETIME SUPPLY.

Well they live on a farm there probably not just doing it out of their backyard garden like you do you live on a farm because if you live on a farm and you're not able to preserve this much food then you're not working the land enough don't come on here and hating on people because they're able to do things differently and more proficient then you are that's why they're here on this channel in the first place to share their information so sit back and take some notes instead of standing on your soapbox and telling them what they're doing is wrong

God Loves You Jesus Christ is the only way to FORGIVENESS John 3:16-17 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. Romans 3:23-26 For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus: Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God; To declare, I say, at this time his righteousness: that he might be just, and the justifier of him which believeth in Jesus 1 Corinthians 15:1-4 Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain. For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures: Ephesians 2:4-6 But God, who is rich in mercy, for his great love wherewith he loved us, Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved;) And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus: Faith Alone in the Death, Burial and Resurrection of Jesus Christ (God) to Forgive your Sins through His blood (By believing in this you have become a new creation in Christ, and have a promise you’ll be with the Lord in your death, but also have the Holy Spirit living in you forever as a guide for you). If you believe, from that moment on to eternity you are saved (No matter how much you sin after). Christ Loves You and he wants you to become a Believer Hell or Heaven? Matthew 10:28 And fear not them which kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul: but rather fear him which is able to destroy both soul and body in hell. Matthew 23:13 Ye serpents, ye generation of vipers, how can ye escape the damnation of hell? HELL IS A REAL LOCATION ALL NON CHRISTIANS WILL BE THERE John 14:6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me. Heaven or Hell? A PRAYER FOR SALVATION THROUGH FAITH “I know that I am a sinner and need your forgiveness. I believe that Christ died for my sins and rose three days later from the grave. Thank you for forgiving my sin on the cross. You alone Jesus is now why I have forgiveness and eternal life. Thank you in Jesus name. Amen.” If you have prayed this with faith you are Forgiven and now in the Body of Christ. Welcome brother or sister. Remember saying a prayer does not save you, having Faith does in Jesus and what He did for you. I encourage you to find a Godly Bible believing church God Bless
