I don't usually comment, but my heart feels the need, especially since I caught this video just after you posted. I just want to thank you for your channel, I appreciate you so much, I literally been following you for 2 months and I am alone mostly bc of pandemic. I do get to see my granddaughter though. Your videos are awesome and you're very smart, intuitive...loving and I don't look for any other channels on dehydrating bc when I know what I like I stick to it. You are so clear and practical and down to earth I can tell....I love when you say " bc that's how we roll!" My family says that too. Its extremely practical that you provide time stamps. I feel way to close to you to skip thru your videos, I wanna hear all you have to say and ur personality makes me smile like I am in the kitchen with you. I love getting to know you chica! Sounds weird, maybe but like I got excited for you and brought a smile and chuckle to my face about your new knife🤗 bc well, im glad ur happy and I am so similar as it is the simple things that get me happy and well, I think many ppl have lost sight of that in this world today. Blessings and favor on your entire family and everything you touch 🙏🏽🙇🏽‍♀️

I went with the Biochef Savannah, not that you compared that one, but your discussions on what to look for were so good, that this was my choice with what we have here in Australia. And I'm loving it so much...so much easier to use in everyway. I would certainly be suggesting a case dryer for anyone who can afford one. And I needed to dry garlic today and went straight to your chanel, knowing you would have a video on there somewhere about it. Again, thanks so much for all that you share...blessings to you.

I've learned a lot from you, and I've combined some of the things you've taught me into one healthy supplement. I like to dehydrate kale, spinach, ginger, and garlic; make a powder containing all four; put the powder into gelatin capsules; and swallow 16 over the course of each day. I feel noticeably better since I've started doing this, and my A1C has gone down two points. I'm not much of a vegetable eater -- in fact, I eat way too much kid food -- but veggies in capsule form mean I get the nutrition without having to eat so much veg. Thanks so much for your instructional videos.

@erinodonovan5459 2 жыл бұрын

@@jeanmariemissale5663 CSA stands for community support agriculture. Basically farmer sets aside a share system where people buy a share of the farmers yield for a full or partial season. The farmer then delivers that on a predetermined schedule. Many have various sizes of shares and other options. It just depends on the farmer. We have several CSAs for different items (meats, seasonal veggie ales and fruits) that we belong to and they all handle things a little differently. But we love supporting our local farmers and of course receiving their amazing foods and goods.

I have been watching a lot of food preservation channels over the last couple of years. This is definitely one of the best and most useful. Love your content and tutorials. One question: I find that when I put very small pieces like this, or especially leaves, in the dehydrator, they get blown around or off the rack because the fan is blowing from the back. How do you control that?

Don't strip herbs before drying - do it after and it helps. Place a weighted piece of parchment on top. Don't open the machine until the fan has completely stopped. Just a few options.

Very informative. Have been considering via Internet exactly what you detailed here as an addition to my dried canned veggie medley (lazy soup night and/or survival power outages grub). I might have missed something though. I was following it until the end when you pulled out the frozen container. Do you "store" in both jars AND frozen? Or freezing your already dried ginger? I've froze the chopped fresh ginger before, but I don't want to open a freezer during a power outage. Just curious. My veggie medley is stored in half gallon canning jars with oxy absorbers and vacuumed tight with the Mason Jar Vacuum accessory for my Food Saver. And your video...was so pleased you focused on the topic rather than jabber away about life, pets, vacation plans, and other unrelated "stuff" found on so many other sites.

Did you use parchment paper in your dehydrator?

@ThePurposefulPantry Жыл бұрын

No. I don't use parchment paper. I used fruit leather sheets or mesh

How long does the dehydrated last in powder or pieces last?

@ThePurposefulPantry Жыл бұрын

Pieces 2-3 years, powder until it no longer has any smell/flavor like any other spice. I recommend powdering as much as you need for sa few months to keep it as fresh as possible.

I grow my own ginger how in the world do you peel it. Everything I’ve tried it still very time intensive.

I have a question about garlic, I had elephant and reg garlic I dehydrated it . I heard home garlic would be better tasting. Never dehydrated garlic before, well I tasted a small piece and it was very spicy. And my stomach was upset. This wasn't fresh but it was good. Do u think it was ok to use, it was a year old

It's not something I would eat by itself, but in something it'll be fine.

So we don't have to peel the ginger for making homemade ginger powder

Can I put it in the oven to dehydrate or must I put them in a dehydrator? Thanks

@ThePurposefulPantry Ай бұрын

You have to be very careful about the oven because often they can't get low enough in temp to do it well - or not burn. So be careful, prop the door open if you can.

When you recycle a jar, how do you get the small out of some? I love some jars and they retain smell of original product.

@ThePurposefulPantry 2 жыл бұрын

It's usually not the jar but the lid. Soak in vinegar, lay in the sun..

How do you clean your coffee grinder?

@ThePurposefulPantry Жыл бұрын

A fan brush and then if it's still dirty,, some rice ground in it. But I also rinse it quickly under a water spray and let it dry well. Cosori has a drain hole built in, though I'm not officially recommending it to anyone ;)

We have a rechargeable canned air machine out (just like a small bottle of canned air people use to clean electronics, but it' s electric without the propellant) which can work as well.

So I ran my ginger in the food processor after following all the steps but I see a good deal of the grainy threads. I don’t see the ginger on the video looking like that. After dehydrating they are still there, tho very brittle. Curious, is this normal? Is it still okay to process into a powder? TIA

@ThePurposefulPantry 2 жыл бұрын

It may be that your ginger was a lot older than mine. But it's still fine.

@michelewickey9744 2 жыл бұрын

Just pour your powder through a fine mesh strainer to get rid of the "threads".

I have an odd question, will you still get the same nutrients from simply the peels of ginger? Say I want to use the meat for juicing but I don't want to waste, will I still get the same benefits from just the peels?

@ThePurposefulPantry 2 жыл бұрын

They have some, but not enough to bother doing them, to me. They can just compost. They also won't make as good of a powder as the full root.
