Never thought about dehydrating rhubarb. Sounds like a fantastic idea. Thanks!
I picked a bunch yesterday, not knowing how i was going to preserve it. Perfect timing Heidi! 😊
God is So Good ❤
I dehydrated some rhubarb and made it into powder for my Aunt. She's not a fan of rhubarb normally because it's too sour for her. I told her to try the powder on her fish instead of lemon. That was the ticket, she now likes rhubarb powder on her fish. 😁❤️
Nice!
Great idea👍
Rhubarb, rhubarb orange, rhubarb strawberry, rhubarb raspberry liqueur and jam are fantastic!!
With another harvest of rhubarb at hand I am going to try to sell at our local farmers market. Wife made a lot of strawberry rhubarb jam
I had never thought of dehydrating rhubarb, but I’m gonna try it
I want to try dehydrating and powdering rhubarb. Looks great. I have made rhubarb chutney that was really good.
Thank you Heidi!
Yes, indeed! It's time to get the dehydrator going! The herbs are growing faster than I can make tea out of them.☺️ Thank you for the idea of the cloth on the trays! It works great!
Luke at MIGargener (YT) recently did a video on rhubarb leaves. They're very high in oxalic acid. He made a bug spray out of them.
Blessings! 💜
Yes, I did a video recipe years ago for bug spray where I added rhubarb leaves. The main issue with those is they are toxic to humans so not good to spray on things you may like to nibble on in the garden. Also, the slugs don't care, they even eat the rhubarb leaves while they are still on the plant! Slimy little jerks! At least they do not demolish it, it grows too fast and too big for them to do that, haha
@@RainCountryHomestead I had edible oxalis in my garden years ago. It's really pretty. It's not highly toxic. I probably wouldn't eat oxalis salads all summer. If I'm remembering correctly, people with kidney issues shouldn't eat it at all.
@@trishthehomesteader9873 Oxalates are in most greens, if not all, it is the amount that matters. I believe it is other factors that make rhubarb leaves toxic but I may be wrong
When I made wine from the fresh rhubarb chunks, it starts with mixing suagar and rhubarb and then you strain off the juice for making wine. I dehydrated the sweetened rhubarb and it is a nice sweet treat to have once in awhile. I have alot of dehydrated plain rhubarb dehydrated too but havent used it yet since I have so much fresh when it comes in! Thanks
Yes, I had read about it done that way and made the first batch by adding some sugar to the rhubarb when I froze it but did not do it that way again
Hi Heidi, God is good all the time. Hallelujah.❤❤❤
Thanks Heidi 😊 ❤❤
Rhubarb applesauce is delicious.
Dehydrating some rhubarb would be worth a try. Thanks!
Have a blessed Sunday ❤
I have never tried dehydrating rhubard. I am actually going to use up the last out of my freezer and make a Rhubarb BBQ sauce, but how exciting to try dehydrating it!
Rhubarb in BBQ sauce sounds like a great plan. I love being creative with BBQ sauce. I have made some with peaches and I really liked that. And I also love how versatile rhubarb. I think many just do not realize how it can combine well with many things
@@RainCountryHomestead i will post a video when i make and can it! Hopefully next weekend. I have the grandbabies this weekend:)
Heidi, it sure is pretty looking when it is dehydrated. I no longer have rhubarb as we moved, and I did not take any with me. Thank you for another great informational video.
That is a bummer, hopefully you can get your hands on some new plants. I got mine from a friend years ago who had been digging up her plants and separating out the roots.
@@RainCountryHomestead I am hoping as I gave some to a friend maybe she can get me some when she comes to visit! I got that rhubarb from my mom over 38 years ago. I sure would like to have some of that back.
Thank you. Never have gotten a chance to try rhubarb. Better believe that when I get the chance I'll be taking it! ☺️
I love to dehydrate. I have been wanting to dehydrate rhubarb. A lot goes in a jar, so it is easy to store. I have mentioned this to my friend she thought it was strange. So her freezer is full and she has a new crop of rhubarb. She is thinking of throwing away last year's rhubarb to refresh it. I say dehydrate it.
Never tried dehydrating rhubarb , need to try this !
I never thought of dehydrated rhubarb-
What a great idea!
I have been baking breads w it and making jams.
Now, I can relax a bit and use my Cosori Dehydrator 🥰
Rhubarb bread sounds lovely.
@@Littlewing6was9 thanks! I use my Mom’s recipe and it truly is heavenly 🥰
@@sabinakruse7369 could you share it please 🌼
I make branding day cake with it because we brand in April and it’s usually one of my first plants on the warmer south side of the house to get going! I’ve used both fresh and dehydrated!
So I do 3 different recipes plus have cold heavy cream, whipped cream and or ice cream for them,
My first cake is a cinnamon brown sugar cake.
My second cakes take’s strawberry jello and marshmallows and white cake mix.
My third cake recipe takes any flavor jello plus any flavor cake mix and sugar, easy peezzzeee. I personally like this one with grape jello and German chocolate cake mix!
My hubby loves the cinnamon brown sugar cake fresh out of the oven with ice cream!
I planted a few windrows of rhubarb and am never without! Plus plenty to gift it!
But I do need to dehydrate a few gallons so if my deep freezer takes a dump I’m good!
The way our government is letting in the “world” I’m afraid we’ll see lots of power outages as punishment for being “free” citizens…
If you put a rubar leaf in your garden, the slugs will come and eat it. That way you can catch them and get them out of your garden.
Yep, they will eat pretty much any decomposing leaves you toss down including dandelion and more. This is just another reason why chop and drop is great for the garden, provides a mulch layer that feeds the soil and also gives slugs something the eat instead of your live plants
All the 18 yrs I’ve been growing rhubarb, I’ve never had slugs or any other insect bother it.
I’ve never grown Rhubarb or eaten it that I can recall. It’s interesting that the leaves are considered toxic. I’ll have to keep this in mind when I do grow it. 😊
You can compost it. 🌼
I've never eaten rhubarb but you make it sound so delicious Mrs Heidi.... Im currently dehydrating eggs 🥚🥚🥚🤗🤗🙏 Kendra
I use my dehydrated rhubarb (not blanched) to flavor kombucha with strawberries. Delicious 🙃
I actually have some rhubarb starts but found it’s too hot here so I’m going to try to grow some late fall. My Dad’s sisters in Illinois grew it, and my favorite was strawberry rhubarb jam. Many Blessings!!
I'd never thought about dehydrating rhubarb before but will be trying that next year. I'm also going to try using a mandolin to slice the stalks.
Good video , thanks for sharing , God bless !
Powdered rhubarb sounds amazing but I froze mine, next time I will dehydrate thanks Heidi!
You can always pull it out and dehydrate, it will actually powder even easier since it was already frozen first
@@RainCountryHomestead Awesome thats good to know I was afraid I might make a mess lol thanks again Heidi!
I think it dehydrates more quickly after being frozen....
@@SunshineCountryChickens Well, that could be a possibility but I doubt it will be as bad as blanching first
@@RainCountryHomestead Haha I trust your judgement
Love your flowered hoodie.
Good Day Heidi…
Can Organic Cane Sugar be simply Jared
& vacuum sealed for long time storage ???
Or is their a process I need to do first???
Just wanted to add your like a book of knowledge…
I trust 2 people on asking questions and your my Top 1 person…
I TRUST YOUR OPINIONS…
Thank you 🙏
Blessed Be
Sugar only needs to be protected from moisture so it can simply be stored in a bucket or large jar. No need to vacuum seal
If I'm going to set my dehydrator outside because of the heat, do I have to give any consideration to the wind or other outdoor conditions. Will it take longer outside than inside?
As far as wind, it depends on just how windy it is. It may help dry faster but obviously if it is so windy it is blowing your trays off, then yes, this would be an issue. Humidity is also a factor as this can slow drying time and if it is drizzly, you will need it in a covered area. It is also best to protect your electric dehydrator from direct sun. For me the ideal place is on the deck table that has an umbrella to protect from both rain and direct sun
@RainCountryHomestead thanks!I appreciate you taking time to answer questions!
I don't think we can grow rhubarb in north central Florida
I have always heard it is a great vegetable.
I know it is pretty hardy and can grow in many places but I do think it likes places with plenty of moisture.
I want to try it in freeze drier and powder it.
If you have a freeze dryer already, sure, but I have powdered it up just fine after using my dehydrator
When you dehydrate your zucchini or pumpkin do you do chunks or shred it then dry it?

I believe I show how I cut up my zucchini for dehydrating in this video: ruclips.net/video/1aqaV1dQnEQ/видео.html
What about dehydrating frozen rhubarb...has anyone done that? Or would it be like blanching? I am trying to empty my freezer of last year's food. - Pearl
I would suspect it may be similar to blanching but I suggest just giving it a try with a little and see how that works.
Oh. Rhubarb wine. Bet that’s good.
