Mary’s Nest has amazing bone broth videos. I personally remove the fat which I save and render for use in cooking. I feel like that makes the powder last longer, and I love having that wonderful fat for gravies, etc. I’m becoming addicted to saving bones and fats! I can’t believe how much nutrition I used to throw away!
@eccentricviewingsnoidiotsa554 2 жыл бұрын
Cool idea! I do not have a dehydrator, but I have the same issue with space to store homemade broth. I figured out I could simmer the broth down until it’s denser and less in volume, then freeze in silicone ice cube trays for making large ice cubes. When the cubes are frozen, I take them out and store together in a gallon freezer bag. I reduce my broth such that a pint of broth becomes about 1/2 cup, which fits in one 2” ice cube slot. Then I just add more water as needed when thawing/using the broth later. I’d like to get a dehydrator someday though, seems like a versatile tool. Love your creative and adventurous spirit in innovating solutions and better methods for your projects!

Hi Heidi, I save all chicken bones and unused veggies in a bag in the freezer. When it’s full, I simmer all ingredients with Bay Leaves and some homemade Apple Vinegar for about 6 hours. Then, strain into a large pitcher, place in fridge. Next day, scrape off fat and dehydrate. When cooled, I powder it up and store. I use it in gravies, rice, other meat dishes, mashed potatoes, etc. Thanks for this video, as I just go on my own way too.

Ok you’ve convinced me. I’m going to just have to get a round dehydrator. I have a rectangle dehydrator and silicone trays simply do not exist that fit it. I’ll find one at a sale and snatch it. My new oven has a dehydrator setting which is pretty cool and works great for fruit & veg, but I’m not sure it would work well for liquids nor have I found silicone trays that ……hold that thought….. Omg 🤦🏼♀️ Well I need to thank you. Thank you, Heidi. You made me talk myself in a circle which led to…. I can use those silicone trays that don’t fit my dehydrator in my oven. And my oven is gas, which I prefer at this point over electric. I should delete this entire thing but I’m going to leave it so I can show you in real time how helpful you are. Even if it’s a stupid obvious thing I should have figured out long ago. Oh well, at least my freezers will have a lot more space once I get all this stock outta them and into the storeroom.

I am going to try leaving it in. I also need to make room in my freezer, but have been putting off dehydrating the broth due to fat content and it just a pain to worry about that as well as extra time. Great content as usual!
@rosehavenfarm2969 2 жыл бұрын
Wonderful post, Heidi, thank you. I have found that, if I have a nice big layer of fat on top of my liquid bone broth, it will keep in the fridge for months. It is effectively "vacuum sealed," since no air can get through the fat. I do use canning jars and lids to store this way. This spring I want to begin dehydrating our eggs, when The Girls flood us with their luscious eggs. and since I like to have BB on hand, I have been canning it. But oh, the work! Dehydrating is the way to go, I think. Yes, I will leave the fat in it, too. This will be a wonderful food to have on hand, to have a cup of BB: just boil some water. Thanks again.

When my freeze dryer was working, did not worry so much about it -- but with dehydrating, I wonder if it is good - so I keep the jars in the refrigerator. So for, no growth or anything on them. I also vacuum seal them. The issue I have to remember is how little I need because of cooking it down.

Yeah, I have seen a lot of people going with those expensive set ups and first started to feel a little pressured but then realized I really did not want one, especially considering the cost of it as is, plus the time and cost of maintenance. Plus, dehydrated food takes up less space than freeze dried and I have been hearing more and more stories about people's freezer dryers breaking down on them. Nope. I lost all interest. So I went on a mission to see if one could simply dehydrate all these things at much less the cost. :)

Depending on the shape and size of your trays, I would think you may be able to use ones for another brand.

Just take measurements and compare

Good morning 🌄 I'm working on dehydrating bone broth. I bought the silicone trays to go in my Nesco dehydrator. I'm having issues getting the dry broth off the trays. Is there a secret to getting it off? Mine seems to stick/crumble/ fly all over. How long do you let yours cool before you try to remove the dry broth? Maybe I'm being too impatient. Thank you 😊 Would it help to oil the silicone trays?

I cool them just long enough so that they are totally cool then fold/roll the silicone trays up and use this to loosen the broth from the trays and then dump into the jars.

You may need to store them in the freezer if it gets very hot where they are at but that would go with any fats. If you store oils and other fats that go rancid on the shelf, then these are all things that should be kept in the freezer if you do not have a cooler place to store them

Can you dehydrate liquids in the oven?

What about storing your dehydrated broth in a plastic bag to put in the freezer. Do you feel that would be okay instead of putting all the glass jars in the freezer?
@RainCountryHomestead 2 жыл бұрын
I personally prefer using glass but yes, you could use a plastic bag
@lorettamargaret2243 Жыл бұрын

Thanks! It may of been Mary that said she cooked the broth down more before dehydrating.

How do you make corn bread?

Depends on what I am making it for. The cornbread I made to top my tamale pie is different that what I make Tarheel style to go with beans (in which case I only use white cornmeal with buttermilk)

My dehydrator is just "on" -no temperature difference. One year I'll get one that offers variety...I have had it since...hmmm some time in the early 90s. 😁
@RainCountryHomestead Жыл бұрын
That is fine for meats, broth, and most veggies and fruit but I would not use it for herbs or eggs I am trying to keep raw because it is likely a temperature of 140° to 160°

I was just noticing yesterday that I have store-bought organic bone broth that is about to expire. Can I dehydrate it the same way or freeze it? I am new to dehydrating. Thank you!
@RainCountryHomestead 2 жыл бұрын
Yep, you can do that. Though it is still likely good in the box for years. Best By dates are not the same as expiration dates
@jewele 2 жыл бұрын
Thank you! I prefer to keep it as a liquid as long as possible so that’s good to know. I have a hard time knowing how long each “best by” food is good for so thank you. 🤗

If the date is only a Best By date, there is nothing to worry about. Those really mean nothing. Honey has an indefinite shelf life but you will still find a best buy date on it! haha

My Gram did not refrigerate eggs and kept them on the counter... but never long enough for them to dry out. That was 50 years ago. I've had raw Easter Eggs explode after a while. It makes me concerned about spoilage and contamination. I'm concerned about poisoning myself to slow-dry broth or eggs. It takes only once. How do you stay safe?
@RainCountryHomestead 2 жыл бұрын
12 hours dehydration time will not spoil it. Remember, it is drying the whole time so that will just not happen, I have dried cheese, eggs, meat, and milk without issue and you would know if any of these actually spoiled
@nellcovington4001 2 жыл бұрын
I just read recently that, if your eggs were refrigerated when you bought them, then you should keep them in the fridge. If the eggs were not refrigerated, then it is ok to store them unrefrigerated. While dehydrating the eggs, heat is cooking them which keeps them safe.

Can I ask why you don’t want to use vinegar in your bone broth?
@RainCountryHomestead 2 жыл бұрын
Because I have done it before and did not like how it turned out. Wine adds a nice flavor and works just as well to help pull out nutrients but really, neither are necessary for that as cooking for at least two days will do just fine

I like the idea very much but does this not use a ton of power to have dehydrator running long enough? It takes an age to dry fruit leathers and in NZ, that's a lot of power consumption. Maybe you people have cheaper power?
@RainCountryHomestead Жыл бұрын
Takes power to can it or to freeze it as well so one can take their pick. A dehydrator does not pull as much power per minute as the heat needed to can when you have it on a lower setting and on a higher setting, it will shorten the time. Dehydrating takes up about 1/4 to 1/8 of the space so even if you pay more in electricity to dehydrate, you save in space in the freezer or pantry
