Only have a cheap £20 round plastic dehydrator and the grid in the trays are a bit big so we got the square reusable mesh oven chip liner trays from Home Bargains and cut them to fit the dehydrator trays . No more sweetcorn / onion / carrots falling down to the bottom .

The BBC did a fantastic series called wartime farm. Before ww2 two thirds of Britain’s food was imported and with the German blockades, food couldn’t get through from the rest of the world. The series follows a historian and two archeologists as they run a farm as it would have been run during the war. They’re on RUclips. Eye opening!

Id gind youre corn into powder

Ana, you need to shake your jars once in awhile til they stop sticking to keep them separated and it helps anything that is not quite dry will in the jar. i just dehydrated 2 lbs of them and they did really good. Try it again.

Hi Ana i have just got a dehydrator and I’m looking forward to trying out different things,i was quite intrigued by the tomato powder and the fact it can be used to make tomato sauce do you think you could show us how to do this thanks

Thats given me more ideas!

That is a lot of jars, glad that I'm not the only one with multiples of half filled jars 🙂 I powder kale and spinach, then add it into the bread mix and it gives you green bread - great for getting extra greens into fussy kids. Also the apple rings that you had in the blue plastic tub, I sprinkle cinnamon onto them before I dry them and they make really moreish snacks. PS have you done a video on the snack bars that you make ?

Dried citrus peels are excellent fire lighters

I use small vacuum seal bags for small amounts, i checked my dehydrated mixed veg from 3 years back and still looking good.

Sadly Screwtube have stopped me sharing your channel

Excellent variety, Ana!💗 Enjoy & Cheers! 🍷 🍷🎉

I will have to try the beetroot Ana. I put it in juices and smoothies but it all comes a bit too together and then there is none.

Oh gosh, celery is one of my fav dehydrated foods. Onion, carrot abd celery and you have the base for a veg stock..

I so love dehydrating. I do onion greens, leeks, chives, mushrooms, celery, mixed greens from whatever doesnt get used from greens crops, different herbs and nettles, marigold pettals, comfrey and chamomile. My worry is akways how long to keep Ana? I sadly throw out what is left after a year.

Some of those dry vegetables may not look yummy, but if one is hungry.... Even if you don't eat them yourself, you can give them to someone who is starving...or take a jar to the trade place that will probably be set up.

Its quite an investment, but have you considered a freeze dryer?

Instead of chucking those manky peas straight into the bin, what I would do is take them with me on my next wild walk. She seem to live somewhere similar to me. I toss things like that into the undergrowth. If it grows, great! It it doesn't, it will just rot into the ground and nourish it more. I always keep my cherry stones for the same reason. A cherry tree may not grow and produce in my life, but hopefully, someone in the future will benefit.

I love to see what other people have in their prepping cupboards, some very useful tips in this. I haven't used my dehydrator since I purchased it - I didn't like the texture of the vegetables when re-hydrated, as you said the green beans were not worth doing again. Good in terms of space-saving and if you are lucky and buy them reduced in bulk. I think I will get my dehydrator out again and perhaps try coconut and beetroot.

Haha I have been going through my stuff today and re drying some powders. So good to know I am not the only one that gets in a mess and if I can shut the door I can put it off for later. I had only had one jar with broad beans that were manky. I get through loads of the moisture absorbers.

I'm stocking up for the election ! Only a short time away now ! Thanks for the video Ana ! See you next time ❤

Wow! great stash. I label everything as I'm bound to forget. Looking forward to seeing the next vid. Thanks Ana

Ive been messaging Richard for months to get a prepper on, or do a prepping related video done for months. I have a small channel, over 4 years now. I cover urban/city prepping. It's incredibly important for people to create a buffer for the future. Food insurance 👊💜👊🌱

What about grape seed oil?

I cant stop watching your vids 😊 such good tips, ive just picked all my tomatoes from our garden and am going to attempt your tomato sauce 😊

In WW1 the British government really screwed up with the health of the population. They'd never been so sickly, rickets and malnourishment had never been so bad. It did lead to much better health in WW2. For once they learned something

Hi, can you recommend which activated charcoal to go for, ive had a look on Amazon and its mainly capsules, you said go for tablet form . Thanks

Salt...you have to have iodized salt. You need iodine in your diet.

26:31 26:33 yes 26:41💯👍🏼 how can I work hand to hand with you guys?

Love your chopping board 😂 x

For storing sugar use plastic bottles.... Rince them good then dry them out..... Make sure they are very dry...... Then with a funnel poor the sugar in..... And it may cloth..... But then shake the bottle and it comes lose. And when you use also plastic bottles the same way for rice..... Friese dried coffee..... In short anything that goes through the opening can be poored in..... And keep it out of the sun and store it in a room temperature. Make sure mice can't reach it they might bite through.

Great video sewing is good skill to learn even if it's putting buttons on shirts/blouses etc

Dandelion root coffee mixed with either real coffee or goose grass coffee 😊

With a reduced Kcal food consumption with rationing and limited fuel for heating during a Dark Winter then keeping warm could be difficult without the appropriate clothing. The UK now does not have a population, which has access to coal or a means of offgrid fuel storage as a means of heating as it did during WW2. Having a supply of good clothing with long lasting durable fabrics put by in storage such as Harris tweed/Ventile cotton/Merino wool is a good idea.

Sugar for preserving ie jam is important. Many canned meats are great to store also tuna etc. Canned butter keeps years. Gee keeps years. I do think rationing is coming. I am preparing.

When clothing was rationed local ladies took it upon themselves to organise jumble sales rather like a clothes swap.

Im going to be making jam soon from the fruits ive grown in my garden. My question is which way of steralising the jars is the best way? X

All well and good having rationing, but let’s face it if the stock isn’t there in the first place your ration cards are useless, and for what it’s worth most of what they will allow us will be pretty suspect, I remember watching a documentary about rationing, some ladies were saying how they were given recipes for cheap cuts of meat and 1 of them said, “what I want to know, is where the good cuts of meat went” even then people knew who was having the best and throwing the scraps to the rest of us.

Meat was rationed but horse meat was readily available, well to some extent.

What are the signs in a country that food shortages are imminent? Just trying to understand better, from the uk ❤

As a small boy during the 1939 war if rationing comes you just cope and go without and everybody slims down no amount of prepping will help over along period. I do have the T shirt.

Ana Most people have not seen what happens when shtf I have and if people think that people dont go nuts they ain't seen nothing yet.

I just save my clothes which don't currently fit because of my enlarged dress size. If I lose weight because I have to ration my food, I will have clothes. I do sew and quite well. I also understand that Queen Elizabeth also had to ration clothing even for her wedding dress and many women sent her their ration coupons so she could have a nicer dress. Nylons and pantyhose were also rationed. Women used to use an eyebrow pencil to draw the seam line on the back of their legs like they were wearing hose. I generally wear pants and don't bother with nylons if I wear a dress in the summer. In the winter I wear tights or tights and tall fashion boots. Other options exist and are fashionable with function, I have a friend who was a child in WWII and she bought bags and bags of flour during the pandemic. She doesn't know how to bake and now she's trying to figure it out. If you do buy flour to "bake bread" use some now to figure out which breads are easiest, take less fuel, less ingredients and less washing up. You will also develop a skill that you can use all your life. My parents also lived through WWII, as did my grand parents. Things weren't readily available as they are now, even in the 1970's they were more accessible than in WWII. There is so much available right now from all over the world it's quite amazing. We are really spoiled in this day and age. Take advantage of it if you can and while you can. You can freeze scrambled eggs or eggs fried over hard with parchment in between in preparation for egg sandwiches or breakfast burritos or breakfasts. Yum, scrambled eggs with canned corned beef hash and hot sauce heated in a skillet. Good video. I will start to stock up if these things present themselves to me and I have room. Rationing is like having a budget for yourself. I have seen other videos bringing this up, so you're definitely on the right track. They're not even necessarily prepping channels.

Ghee is a great butter option, also coconut oil is not horrible on toast. My husband uses it alot! We buy it in a can here in Canada. It's called British Class. Not organic, but if "it" hits the fan, I have plenty on the shelf 😉

Don't forget how good for you salt is: celtic or himalayan will act as an electrolyte for your distilled water.

"...The penalty for not registering is a £5,000 fine. The law applies to anyone who keeps 50 or more birds, including chickens, ducks, geese, and other captive birds..." My suggestion would be, anyone who has 50 birds gets Sunday lunch sorted. Looks like more mental covid-type regulations, as in, walk this way in a supermarket, you won't get covid. Have 50 chickens you're in danger of avian flu, but 47, 48 or 49 chickens, absolutely fine. Yawn.

I like your benchtops ❤

British Society is currently too fractured, too diversive, has virtually no resilience to implement a food and energy rationing system. The government massacres would make Peterloo look like a walk in the park if the Deliveroo food stopped turning up.

I have just started trying to make my own vinegar there are a lot of information online about how to go about it and with vinegar you can pickle things

This evening I ate more than 30 grammes of chocolate. This would be a weeks choco ration in Big brother Starmers two tier rationing from the ministry of plenty, where I suspect I wouldn't even be getting a Government choco ration being the wrong sexual orientation, wrong faith, wrong political identity and suffering from a lack of skin melanin.

There won't be any rationing. The powers that be really aren't interested in keeping the 'useless eaters' alive. COP28 YearZero wanted 50% of worlds agricultural production to be eliminated. Planned Global famine under the guise of the Climate Change emergency narrative and the resource and energy w@rs.
