I am 15 and saw your video on pasta, I didn't know homesteading was a thing. Now I am thinking about it for my future, your videos really help with understanding different lifestyles.
I did have chickens before but that was like 5 years ago.
Don’t wait! Start now, even if you have to grow things in pots.
Very smart
LOVE to hear this from such a young person! Yay YOU!!!!
You’re 15 now 17 watching this in 2024. If you have start now. Learn to can, dehydrate start saving for a freeze dryer. Look for books on gardening, canning and preserving. I wish I would have taken the time to learn from my mom and grandmother. Now I’m 45 and doing research on the different things I can do and building my book library on these types of things. I’ve also started buying cookbooks and other books from the Great Depression era. Praying they are never needed but would rather have the books and never need them than need them and not be able to get them.
I've been freeze drying eggs for about 2 years and my husband doesn't know it. LOL! He's been reluctant to eat anything that I've FD'ed but it's amazing how many things he's been eating that I preserved over a year ago. I try to find the best deal on eggs that I can and try to do all 4 trays with raw scrambled eggs. I also do sour cream and whole milk. When I can get lactose free whole milk from Walmart for 2.78/half gallon, I stock up with as much as I can by pouring it into extra trays and prefreezing it. I separate the slabs of milk with plastic wrap until the FD'er is ready. It's saved us so much and our FD'er has more than paid for itseIf several times over. Diced onions, peppers, jalapenos, hatch chilies, ground beef, chicken strips, peas, strawberries, blackberries, raspberries, apples - OMG - apples are wonderful freeze dried. So are mandarine oranges (Halos or Cuties). I absolutely love our FD'er. It has saved us so much money on food and saved me a lot of time in cooking. You'd have a hard time prying it from me. We preserve ingredients instead of combinations because I never know what I'm going to use them for. I'm getting plants ready to grow indoors for the winter and am looking forward to seeing if I have enough to freeze dry. Congratulations on your HRFD. They're amazing. And thank you so much for all that you share. You've had me laughing out loud at times and you've also brought up things I often wondered about. Keep doing what you're doing. God bless!
Are you ever going to tell your husband, that's so funny 😂 I'd love to have a freeze drier but just way too expensive. Can i ask what are you going to plant indoors? I'm planning a big garden next year for us 😊
Lol! I'd love to do that to my husband too!
I ordered a HRFD a couple of weeks ago and am awaiting it's delivery. 😁 Do you have any suggestions for resources to tell what you can freeze dry? I was thinking of starting out with the potatoes I harvested a couple of months ago. I don't eat them fast enough before they start going bad... and it's just me, no family to eat it up, lol...
The potatoes do wonderful in the freeze drier! I also can a bunch they are so good to use canned also! I was wondering if whole milk is ok to freeze dry ive heard different things on that but if you can do sour cream and heavy cream must be ok! They say the fat content in it makes it not as long on shelf life ,but idk I'll have to do more research on it!
Seeing as you’ve been doing this awhile I want to ask if the machine retains odor? Cam you freeze dry onion with something like apples or will the apple take on onion flavor etc? You know what I mean? I
If the machine does retain odor, how do you clear the odor best before starting something else?. TIA
Becky you can store your food long term in mason jars you’ll need a foodsaver mason jar sealer kit. You’ll be able to remove almost all the air in the mason jar without a need for oxygen absorbers and the kit is super affordable. There are two ways to use it one with a vacuum sealer which you have or two with a break bleeder RUclipsr rain country demonstrates this perfectly and she has a wealth of knowledge for you to learn I think you’ll like her channel. It’s a simple and cheap addition to your homestead to make sure your food will last all winter long for sure and many years after that.
You could go one level up from that. Still put the oxygen absorbers in, but use the vacuum seal lids too.
I checked out the rain country homestead channel based on your recommendation. What a great find! I've been binging on their videos.
@@neophytealpha absolutely but for those who are like me know I don’t necessarily need it so some ppl like me given that option will opt out of using them so I personally like to include that bit of information for whoever to make an informed decision based off of their needs.
@@Angie_P I’m glad you like the channel as much as I do. I really enjoy Heidi her wisdom and demeanor makes watching her videos fun even when I don’t plan to use some of the knowledge given. She is a gem im so glad she choose to make RUclips videos and share it with all of us for free.
You can actually vacuum seal jars inside the chamber of the freeze dryer as well. I do not freeze dry other item when I am freeze drying raw eggs with other foods due to possible cross contamination from salmonella. I clean my freeze dryer really well after raw eggs.
I didn’t know you could freeze dry eggs!! One more bartering point with hubby to get me a freeze dryer!! My 16yr old son and I LOVE watching your videos, he wants to be a chef and I recently watched your episode where you made meals for your friend who had baby #2. I purchased my son the cookbook you suggested The America's Test Kitchen Cooking School Cookbook, and it arrived today as a gift for him…..he’s so excited to start reading it! Ty for sharing that!!! We’ve learned so much from you and the rest of your subscribers!
That is awesome!! Your son is going to LOVE that cookbook. :)
You can freeze dry just about anything. I wish I had one! There are a couple of channels that both dehydrate and freeze dry and compare them. They've even done milk.
There is a new edition coming out in Nov!!!
That is a fantastic book! It not only has tasty recipes, it explains the hows and why's of the best steps to the preparation of foods.
Awww your son wanting to be a chef ❤ I did as well. My dad pushed me to do what I wanted to a ton and I never did it.. now I'm 30 and wish I would of. That is my only regret.
When you reconstitute the eggs let them absorb the water a bit 5 mins ,before besting and cooking. It gives the best texture and flavour.
Becky : today is an exciting day I’m doing a ton of stuff while you watch me from your couch
Everyone : I’m here 😂
Haha! Total doing the same today!
"if you don't want to watch me cook dinner..." 🤣🤣🤣 Good one, Becky!
I bet we all did watch her cook dinner lol I did 🤣
Lol, we always want to watch you cook dinner Becky 😂
There is a RUclips channel "Rose Red Homestead" and she does a lot of powdered vegetables and adds them to her dishes. She uses both her food dehydrator and her freeze dryer
I don’t have chickens. I don’t grow vegetables. But I watch every one of your videos and enjoy them immensely. You are an inspirational young woman. Your enthusiasm is infectious. Thank you for allowing us to spend time with you. Love from Bonnie Scotland 🏴
Are you aware your giving us glimpse into things I sort of heard of but you sweet pretty girl showed me! I’m so excited over your channel!! Please don’t stop! Your hubby is wonderful to help you out. Thank him for me/us! I can’t wait to see your landscape….I so love that. Do you have four fur babies? Hugs to them. Thank you for this video. Love it! 😍🍎🫐🥑🥦🥚🫑🧊❤️🎃
Wow that is one nifty machine. I could see freeze drying strawberries for snacks.
They are delicious on their own or in homemade granola...
I was just looking at your channel so see if you had uploaded and i was sad when i saw no new videos, then i saw this 1 min later!! What a gift :)
Becky you are really on top of your games lately!! don't forget to rest also 😊
Becky, I have to tell you FD bone broth is incredible. 1 quart of broth per tray makes reconstituting it so easy.
I canned up several dozen jars last year and am in the process of FD all of it. It’s much easier to store in mylar.
Becky, a few of us have mentioned the Rose Red Homestead RUclips channel before, and Pam is the best - a scientist, food preservation expert, and great home cook. Her freeze drying videos are excellent!
I concur! Nice to find someone who's not anti-science and knows their stuff!
Agreed. I've learned so much from watching Pam's videos. She really has taken my food preservation skills up a notch. Love that woman.
I am a one ingredient person, so I freeze dry one ingredient items: onions, peppers, all vegetables, non fat dairy products, Cheese, chopped tomatoes, sliced tomatoes, tomato powder. I have not yet worked with meats, because I have so much meat canned on my shelves. The one thing I like, is the ability to make meals in a jar, just adding a can of the meat I canned. QUICK, EASY, YUMMY!! I know many people who freeze dry complete meals, but I'm not there yet, may not want to be. We really like yogurt bites, too. They rock!
I had to watch you say "freeze the frood" like 6 times at 5:25. Lol. In all seriousness, I love love your videos. You are such a hard worker, and that motivates me so so much. I play your videos while my 2 year old and baby nap. It's a time when i just want to sit and do nothing, but your energy and work ethic get me really excited to be productive!! I love my chickens, and I'm working to figure out how to do a garden with the limited sunlight and highly acidic dirt in our yard. Every time I watch you, I end up telling my husband "we HAVE to figure out a garden. I NEED a garden." Thanks for all you do!
Freezes dried eggs probably best for making French Toast or for adding to hamburger mix even for making Schnitzel.
Watch Retired at 40. He does a lot of experiments. Also he has some things for sale that will help you. I love mine. I’ve done onions peppers cooked hamburger with onions, herbs, veggies. I’ve been a bit busy and have slacked but back into it. I’ve had mine for about 6 weeks. You’ll love it.
When ever I see you I think... Becky with the good hair, lol. Thanks for sharing and walking through the process!! You are awesome by the way!!!!
Becky!! I have no good reason to watch you....wait! My kids are grown, I am single, do not like gardening, travel for work BUT you are amazing!!! I so enjoy your videos from scratch cooking to gardening to just about anything you do. Thank you for putting a smile on my face. You are wonderful!! Many blessings...
Love this idea!!
Suggestion for the “texture” issue. If you normally make 5 eggs for you and your husband, use 4 freeze dry worth and add one fresh. Maybe that would give you a more “normal” texture?
I love your videos!!
Also I have read that putting a little salt in your raw eggs will make the texture normal when freeze drying.
We have a Harvest Right and we LOVE it! We have stored so many meals and so much of our garden harvest this way! Our housemate likes to freeze dry soup to send to her mom and her friends! It's great!!
Edit: This is also why we use our Vacmaster! You can load it with Mason jars and it seals the jars!
My sweet Becky. Your channel makes me happy.
Have you watched the channel ‘Retired at 40’? He does a lot of freeze drying! He has three freeze dryers and freeze dries entire meals.
I'm thinking soup mix of onions, celery, garlic, ginger, carrot, green/red/yellow bell pepper, kale, leek, cabbage. Ooh I want one. I would put that mix into roasts, soups, bakes.
Brilliant idea! 😲🤩
Every one of the ideas in the comments has me closer to emptying my bank account for one of these things 😂
I truly are amazing. I would have never thought of making dehydrated eggs.
We thinly slice our tomatoes, marinate them in French salad dressing, a little pepper and salt then freeze dry them...Makes perfect tomato sandwiches in lunchboxes...no more soggy bread!
That sounds so good!
You are a hard working young woman, I'm 70 and love your channel, you are a wonderful teacher to all. I have been buying freeze dried fruit, and I enjoy the taste. Thank you Becky for being such a food preservation instructor, we learn by doing. Pat from Oregon coast.
I’m 69 & still learning so much from Becky’s gardening, cooking, & food preservation techniques. Just wish I was 25 again & could spend my life homesteading like she’s doing. She’s truly a blessing to all of her fans. ❤
My Golden buffs never stopped laying last winter but slowed down in the heat of summer . Right now I have 2 grown step kids living at home but still give away 8-9 cartons of eggs every month to family and elderly at church.
I can see that you have the dehydrators on the bottom shelf as a counterweight, but I would encourage you to move that expensive freeze-dryer over to the center of the rolling cart, just so, if by chance you forget and move the dehydrators, your freeze-dryer doesn't cause the table to tip up on end and crash to the floor. Sorry - I'm a worrier and look for that sort of thing.
That's not being a worrier. That's smart!
I was thinking the same thing!
I thought of that, too!
I’ve had a tremendous amount of freeze dried eggs and other foods in the military. ☺️Those look great!
You are too sweet sharing your eggs. 💜
Love how you’re not afraid to start a totally new thing.
Chives! Notoriously persnickety about being dehydrated, they do very well being freeze dried. Tomato paste is great to add some concentrated flavor without all the juice, so you can put it powdered into soups/stews/salsas if you don’t want the moisture content to get away from you. You can do the same thing with squashes, fruits and root vegetables, puréed, to sprinkle in and amp up nutrition on anything you make OR make dried baby food with them (after a chat with one’s pediatrician, of course). Really the only restriction is your imagination :)
I freeze dry all my cooking herbs now!
I have freeze dried foods in my food storage and love it! I buy mine because I don’t have anywhere to grow food. With those eggs, mixing them up in the Vitamix is the way to go. I then reconstitute them and use in all my baking 😋. They are excellent. Also, you can use the mason jars for freeze dried foods 20 years if you do t have Mylar bags. I just fill jars as full as possible to eliminate extra oxygen, then I drop in an oxygen absorber and close canning lid tightly. You will get that “pop” sound in a couple hours indicating a successful seal.
P.S. l just love your channel, Becky 😍
When I went to college, I worked at a place on campus that shared kitchen space with the main cafeteria, so I learned a few things about how they operated. They mainly used the liquid eggs that come in the half gallon cartons to make breakfast in the mornings but there were 2 times over a year and a half that they had to use the powered eggs instead. The liquid eggs have that perfectly homogenous aspect that Josh mentioned where there are almost silky smooth with no inconsistencies, that's probably why as far as I know, none of the students ever noticed the difference when they have to used the rehydrated eggs. I couldnt tell the difference when I tried them as well.
My Freeze Dryer has replaced my dehydrator for everything but jerky. I always pre-freeze liquids, I saw too many people have disasters when the vacuum pulls before the liquids are totally frozen. Yes, you can FD almost anything but the shelf life is affected by oils. Mine runs almost non stop. Have fun, this will change your food prepping world. 😃
Hey girl. I use my wide-mouth quart jar and my emersion blender to do each tray of eggs. Works like a charm!
This is not a peice of kit I would ever buy but I just loved your enthusiasm for the things you are able to use it for.
My 4 year old son and I watch your videos for bedtime. We snuggle and watch at least 1 before he goes to sleep. If we see a new one available he says 'Look Momma, there's a new one!'
You are so great to watch. So eaay to understand and you make people realize that all of these intimidating things are completely possible. I live an apartment on the 3rd floor with no available space for gardens so I live precariously through yours!
Freeze dried strawberries and fruit Are my favorite
Fabulous video! To the point without over talking! You’re a very organized cook. I’m a fan!
I just recently bought the small harvest right freeze dryer I’ve been running it continually my first project was frozen greens I had in my freezer they were obviously already cooked so I purée them and then put them in the trays and put them in it was so awesome once it was done I just polarized it and put it in a jar perfect for adding to anything even pasta
This gives me good inspiration. I can't wait until the day I have a house on a piece of land a own and I can learn to grow and care for food for me and my family. I just adore you and your videos
We love more on freeze drying. I’m really happy the eggs did so well. This is is a good way to keep up with our chickens.
My daughter tried her hand at making raisin vinegar. She just showed me that she actually has two beautiful mothers in it.
My favorite restaurant uses freeze dried garlic in seasoned olive oil as a dipping sauce for bread. It's the perfect match for any italian food.
That sounds so amazing!
Are the cloves sliced, minced or whole? That sounds so good.
@@calistarlim3242 minced.
Awesome video! I've been wanting one and I love that you're new to it too so the fact that you're not a pro at it yet makes it less intimidating for the viewer too! I'd love to be able to freeze dry meat products like bacon, sausage, chicken breasts, stuff like that. Suuuuuper happy to see this can be done with eggs. My son and I go through a ton and buy them from a neighbor who always has too many lol
I was wondering when I would see a FD video! We just got our large harvest right freeze dryer a couple weeks ago. We are on our 4th run right now!
You definitely need to try different fruit. We have strawberries in there now, bit have tried apple's and bananas. Love them both! Great for snacking. If you haven't yet, I recommend following Retired at 40. He has a RUclips channel and Facebook group. Loots of great information from him! Good luck!
You are correct about the eggs being so powdery. They crush right up and don't need a blender after FDing. I put one tray in 1 gal mylar bag and then kinda squish the bag and it's done. I've never used the blender to powder anything I've done in 3.5 years. Having soups is one my favorite as that's what I feel will be incredible to have if the power is out or if we want to take it camping. No need to be doing a ton of prep or dishes, just add water and done. You're going to have quite an fun adventure with you machine! Congrats!!
I'm so excited for you. Congratulations on the freeze dryer. This has been an ultimate want of mine. You have one of the best gardens I've ever seen and you do such cool and amazing stuff. I know your parents have to be incredibly proud of you for having such knowledge of this young age. I would love to see more freeze drying videos from you. Hopefully I'll be getting one very soon.
That is one thing that I don't know if I could ever afford...or really know where I would even put one. I think it is awesome what you can do with them. How great that will be like you said for your own chicken bouillon! You wouldn't have to worry about limiting your use because of the sodium and etc. because the ingredients would be great!
I've heard to watch out for clumps when blending freeze-dried items to powder. Clumps = Moisture, it can make them unstable over time. You should try to freeze-dry some shredded potatoes, instant hash browns!
Our cousin has a freeze dryer, and we love it when we get to benefit from it, haha! She's constantly running it with sliced fruit for snacks for her kids, and she uses it for batch cooking too. She makes huge batches of salsa and freeze dries it. Oh, and she freeze dries milk, because only her husband drinks cows milk out of the whole family, but it's hard for him to get through a gallon of milk before it goes bad.
There are a TON of things you can do with that, and it's amazing!
Try water glassing eggs! Freeze drying is good but water glassing keeps the eggs in their original state = so many ways to use them. I use my water glassed eggs all winter long. Great video as always 😀
I’ve been watching your videos and got motivated to start my own garden. Forms in place, prepping dirt for winter veggies.
Re watching this as just got my freeze dryer right before Christmas. I have scrambled eggs freeze drying right now. Our chickens have still been producing 15 to 16 eggs a day. I can't wait to get all things freeze dried from our garden this year. With just the two of us we have an abundance I am planting so many tomatoes this year to make paste and crushed etc.
Loving your drnks trolley in the backgroundof the freeze drier!
I'm so excited you purchased this! I've been contemplating purchasing it for a few months!.
Apparently freeze dried watermelon is incredible. It’s one of the first things I want to try when I get my freeze dryer. Need a new house first so I’ll be waiting a while lol.
Never heard of that!
@@SarBearSleeps Living Traditions Homestead have done a bunch of taste testing freeze dried foods videos. I’m about 99% certain that’s where I saw it, although I am very tired right now 😂😂😂 Nah it must’ve been them coz they grow heaps of watermelon every year.
Another thing you can do it dehydrate frozen foods. The freezer takes some moisture out, and the dehydrator will take out the rest. Works very well.
Freeze dried apples are one of my all-time favorite snacks ❤️
from what I've seen on YT people will freeze things to get ready to go in their FD. as soon as something comes out they already have the next thing to go in. Phew! So excited for your new toy!
We get eggs for life, Mom Susan! My husband and I do a lot of grunt labor on the Homestead!
Love, love, love, your channel, don't know how you find to do it all, and work. Good for you watching from UK x
My FD should be here in the next week or so, I'm so excited! I have been working on making a work station for it this weekend. I was moving things around, like my pressure canners and water bath canners....I felt like I was cheating on them! I LOVE CANNING! But I'm thinking FD is going to be my NEW LOVE!! Let's start the journey!!
Becky please move that freeze dryer to the center of that rolling table--love your channel!!!--i wait for your vids and watch them as soon as i can!!! you bring many smiles and laughter!!! 😁😂
Even when storing just for winter, I would still vacuum seal the jars if you have the capability
I definitely need to get a jar sealing kit... :)
Becky, they are not expensive and super helpful!
And oxygen absorbers.
I think you can seal the jars in the freeze dryer itself! I haven’t tried it yet though! And yes the bone broth powder is a favorite of mine.
If you already have a meat vacuum sealer you can buy a jar attachment that will seal them.
I’m sooo grateful you are doing this
Hope you have a great week Beckey, so nice to meet you at the HOA, you're amazing 😊
What came to mind immediately was what a fantastic option for all those apples and other fruits.
Freeze dried peaches are AMAZING!
Thank you again Becky.
We have had great success with meat. Biggest tip is to cook it the way you like and slice it fairly thin. It rehydrates so well. For us this is the very best way to preserve meat.
Freeze dried strawberries and pineapple are two of my favorite snacks!
WOW! Loved this video. Love your channel. I am new to food preservation and have become fascinated with it as a way to save money and not waste food. It all started with the idea of not having to toss my leftover mushrooms because they spoiled faster than I could use them. (seemed to be an achilles heel for me! ) I've just joined your channel and I'm fascinated by all the meal prepping you do to save time and food preservation to save on food waste and cost. Thank you for sharing this one. Next step...adding chickens to my backyard. Have to wait for that, don't live on a homestead yet! In due time. :)
I live in a tiny tiny apartment like 430 square feet. And a big reason I don’t do a lot of preserving is that I just don’t have the space to store anything. But as a vegetarian I buy a lot! Of vegetable broth to cook rice, grains, legumes, and soups! But the flavor from vegetable bullion isn’t always great and I end up getting liters of broth that take up too much room in my tiny kitchen or the jars of it’s better than bullion when I can find it. How amazing would it be to make your own cubes and save so much storage and control the sodium and ingredients! ❤️ I definitely can’t get one of those freeze dried vaults anytime soon (see storage problems) but the possibilities are still exciting!
Becky please make lemon curd with the eggs!
You are unstoppable ! So impressed!
Also! You can remove the shelf from your freeze dryer, add 1 tray at the bottom of the curve as a shelf, put your mason jars with lids and finger-tight rings in and run the more dry setting for 1 minute to seal your jars up. So cool. I can fit about 6-8 jars at a time.... Dry goods only though.
If you don't have/can't get a dehydrator, you can preserve whole eggs in lime water. Its included in the "6 historical ways to preserve eggs" video by the Townsends.
Ok, found you a month or so ago and I am addicted!! First I love you organization of the process. The tips, like the dishwasher empty, trash can out, compost bowl….all excellent tips!!! You are amazing at teaching this process, of meal planning, how to freeze the items and I was blown away with all the pear juice in your other video!!! I wish you best of success on all of your efforts!!! Now back to the videos!!!!🎥🎥🎥🎥
Your videos make me so happy and motivated. Thank you for sharing your wealth of information!!
As if I would not want to watch you cook dinner! I’ve learned so much.
Haha Thank you
Omg that freeze dryer is awesome! I like that it seems easy to maintain also.
For all the blessing your family and friends with free food, I sure wish I was your friend or relative!!!! I sure hope they are all thankful to you.
I don't have a freeze dryer but I buy freeze dried fruit (strawberries, blueberries, apples, kiwifruit) and yogurt drops and my toddler looooves them. Freeze dried raspberry/strawberry powder is perfect for baking, particularly for adding in buttercream so it doesn't change the moisture ratio. You could also make different flavoured yogurt drops with fruit blended in, yum!! I would LOVE to get a freeze dryer but the price point is not accessible to me right now.
Wow! That is awesome! Love the freeze dry...
You can use a piece of eggshell to grab shell fragments out of a bowl of eggs, works like a charm!
That’s amazing Becky. I love your excitement about things
I never thought about buying a machine… RUclips randomly suggested this video.now I need one and want to freeze dry eggs.. 😂😂
You are going to crazy with your Harvest Right!!! I use mine for everything I possibly can. One of my favorite things Ive done was last Thanksgiving when we had an abundance of homemade Turkey Cranberry Gravy left over so I froze it in individual molds and then popped the pucks out onto the freeze dryer tray and now we had that gravy in 1 cup portions that we can rehydrate and warm up any time throughout the year. There are just so many options that you can go crazy! Oh…milk!!! You can freeze your milk (half & half, sour cream & yogurt too) and it rehydrates beautifully. No more taking up freezer space for those gallons of milk!!! 🤪
Wow I’ve never seen or heard of freeze dried eggs before! I learn so much from your channel.
I have the same set up 4 ft metal table on wheels I bought to house my Excalibur dehydrator but both are white 😊 I've been dehydrating for years and bought freeze dryer jul 23rd this year I love both too! I'm building my powder stash of veggies, fruit, bone broth. Your gonna love the eggs they turn out perfect!💖
I make my own pancake and waffle mix using dried egg powder. I dont make my own egg powder, sadly, I have to buy as I dont have a machine. It saves so much time on a weekend morning. You could also make up wee jars or vac seal packs of omelette mix - add in some dried eggs, onions (caramelise them first), peppers etc or whatever you like in your omelette. This will free up space in your freezer. Good luck with your freeze drier. I am very envious, and look forward to more vids including this handy tool
Sliced tomatoes freeze dried with a little salt on them is a great snack!
Becky I’ve never freeze dried eggs but I have dehydrated them raw scrambled and they came out really great! However I did notice the shelf life is lower than I expected. I noticed the flavor changed a little within a few months. But those I vacuum sealed did great. I put them in small paper bags I made myself from parchment paper then I put the bag in a food saver bag. My take aways were to always vacuum seal and always do fairly small bags so I never had to open very much at one time. My vacuum
Sealed we’re still great a year later.
Put Egg yolk into a salt bed and top it with salt after theyx are very dry put them into the dehydrator and then you can grate them over noodle dishes and suchs things
That is so cool!!! I wish I had one. I love the eggs for storage
OWH.. I need 2 of This Freeze Drying Machine.. since I love the texture of Freeze dry fruits.
