Great video! I just picked one-third of the apples on my tree today. I can't leave them on the tree to ripen to become sweeter because the birds and crows know the exact time when they are ready to eat too. They are not sweet so last year I made a lot of tiny jars of applesauce with the smaller apples and bags of peeled slices shaken in cinnamon and brown sugar and then frozen to make into pies, cakes or muffins, etc. This year I remember I inherited a large dehydrator that I have been using for veggies and making potato hash browns. I have limited freezer space as they are full up with other goodies, so thought I would make slices and dehydrate. You've given me the exact information I wanted. I was only surprised that the anti-browning lemon water is rinsed off. OK. Maybe not so tart then. Tomorrow I will start the production line going with sprinkling slices with cinnamon and brown sugar, some with cinnamon and white, and some without any cinnamon or sugar to experiment. I have a lot of Mason jars and also Foodsaver vacuum bags and also jar vacuum sealers so all excited about this next project. I'll then have to pick more apples before the crows get them for the next few days. Thanks again for your inspiration and easy hints. I also have some Citric Acid Food fresh powder to try too along with just the lemon and water dip.
I’ve taken the plunge into pressure canning and I’m hooked. This is my next investment. Just waiting on the stimulus $$’s. Thanks for sharing your knowledge.
I had trouble justifying the cost of an Excaliber...not knowing how much I would use it so I went with a Presto digital dehydrator with adjustable temperature. About $70ish at Walmart. I'm very happy with my purchase.
I use a "peeler-corer-slicer" gizmo which makes the whole process easy peasy. My family loves them with a light sprinkle of cinnamon sugar before dehydrating. Love your videos!
I am not a picky eater at all and I always try to eat healthy but for some reason I never enjoyed apples! I don't mind them, but I hardly ever buy them. I just got a dehydrator and I hope that by dehydrating apples I will start to eat them a bit more often.
I think I might know what I’m going to look for to day. I’m looking for a good jerky I’m thinking u have a video on them don’t remember for sure but anyway, another great video 👍❤️🙏🏼
Hey Carol enjoyed your video very much. I have dehydrated apples and they are delicious and the grandkids like mine much better than the store-bought ones.😊 Just recently purchased a freeze dryer and I’m anxious to try the apples out in it. Have you thought of a freeze dryer?
@@carol-thriftychichousewife6231I live in Oregon, the amount of moisture in the air can cause things to become moist again. I just dehydrate again and then seal my jar quickly.
What a shame to waste them. I think I would pour boiling water over some dehydrated apples, let them rehydrate, and then chop the apples up to put in muffins, etc. That is what I've done with my dehydrated peas or carrots. Boil water, sit the crunchy hard veggies in the water, simmer for a few minutes later and they are exactly like freshly plump veggies. I really was surprised as expected a weird texture thing too.
The best tool for coring apples is using a melon baller after cutting the apple slices then use the melon baller and you will have much less waist and more apple saved. I’ve posted on Facebook this method and I’m the first to use this so it’s called Laurie’s Coring Method

Super❤
I will try
Omg do you have a tour video of your canned foods? That looked lovely!!
I do but it’s old. We’ve since changed out the shelving... I need to do a new one 😊
Orange juice and cinnamon is the best
Super 🎉🎉🎉 my you machalil agri
Please tell me why it become moist again after it being crispy
Probably not fully dehydrated

I did this with apples and strawberries and hated the rubbery texture. I ended up putting them in the compost. 🤮 texture thing ❤️❤️❤️

I love the way you teach. I enjoy your channel very much. Thank you

Thanks. May I have the link
First!
Don't molest your food with things like silicone dioxide, a neurotoxin. If you go through all the trouble of making great food, keep it natural! 😘
Thanks for the video! How do you wash your trays? Do they clean up easy? When do you use the silicone mats?
I just hand wash them in soapy water. The silicone mats are for things like fruit leather
I just got my first dehydrator. I would love to learn how to make apple pie from dehydrated apples.
Check out the video on dehydrate2store.
I’ve never had dehydrated apples, do you cook with them or just eat them as a snack?
Eat them as a snack
Great video! What do you recommend as for shelf life in mason jar ?
About a year
Can you dehydrate in the oven? And what kind of dehydrator do you have? Thanks
Carol mentioned she has an Excalibur dehydrator
Yes, you can dehydrate in the oven. Just use the lowest temp if it doesn’t heat to 135*. Holly is right, I have an Excalibur 😊
Thanks Carol
