Can you dry eggs in an oven?
@@MarlenevT You can but because you may not be able to keep the heat low enough, it is possible they will not be raw in the end
Thanks Heidi, I may try a small batch and see what happens. I have 6 dozen eggs I need to do something with.@@RainCountryHomestead
Help! I read somewhere else to do at 165° to prevent bacteria in my 9 tray Beginner Excalibur. After 20 hours top 4 trays still have some dark center. All is super oily. It's 11 dz eggs. Do I have to just throw them out? Worst case I can freeze and make as dog food supplement I guess @raincountryhomestead
My dehydrater doesn't have trays. Can I do this in the oven somehow?
You can use a old sock and cut the sock in two to cover the jar and to prevent light exposure while you’re storing it
Yep, that is one of many ways.
I would not use clothing fabric unless you sanitize it. I used a towel on the bottom of my canner once because I could find the rack and my water got soapy. So make sure theres no residue laundry products.
Instead of giving eggs away I'm going to start to dehydrate them. You're awesome , thank you !!
Heidi,
If my husband was still alive, he would love your your channel. He was a prepper since the Y-2K craze started. One thing that he prepared us for and no one say it would happened, was Katrina. He kept telling everyone that Katrina was going to be devastating and people better prepare, even way up were we live, Laurel, Mississippi. Two weeks as it was just started churning out in the ocean. My husband bought a huge gas operated generator on a trailer with multiple outlets. We got several 55 gallons drums and filled with gas and diesel. Got out chain saws serviced and sharpened. All vehicles and tractors and four wheelers and lawn mower filled with gas and all gas jugs. All gas and diesel containers. Purchased water and non perishable foods and bread. Filled up propane gas tanks at our house and in-laws. I filled up empty soda bottles and put in freezer so I could have frozen bottles to use for pain relief in case I injuries and I had hurt my back in a car accident back then.
I always kept my bleach jugs and filled them with water for times like this. To use if the toilet. My mother in law started doing it also. We stayed at my in-laws. My son was young. I was a home health nurse. It was awful damage from the hurricane. Over 200 miles north from the coast where Katrina hit. The damage was horrible in our community as well. It was never mentioned on the news. Lives were lost also. Lucky, we were ok, and no trees down on our house or the in-laws, we prayed during the whole ordeal that night. It was so scary. The raid we lived on. Trees were down cris cross from one another. My husband and brother in-law, and neighbors got their chainsaws out and tractors and started cutting trees up and clearing the road. The cleared that county road all the way to the state highway. He said when he got to the end he looked both ways and it wasn’t not but a sea of trees lying on top of each other.
My mother in law and I on the gas stove cooked a hug lunch, we let out freezer at our house thaw layer by layer. What ever was thawed that was our meal. The two weeks we were out of power. We ate better and fed all the families on the road we lived on and help the personal care home with their patients. I went and checked on on my home health patients when a path was cut so I could. I had the drive my little suv under trees that were laying on top of each other and drive over power lines.
Wow, that is an amazing story. This is why we should all prepare! He sounds like he was a special person, and you, too!
@@debbiehall3759 my new little family was in Hurricane Camille in 1967.....and we were in upper Illinois. When Camille got done w alabama and Mississippi,
It moved over to Louisiana and "battered" the mouth of the Mississippi for DAYS...
well....it spawned what they called "hurrcanic tornadoes"
We were in Clinton,Illinois and a tornado blew for hours and hours w that horizontal rain u see in hurricanes. Tornadoes happen and then they're gone. Not this one.....
It blew a house off its foundation and into the little river that ran thru the middle of town.....we had 19" of rain in 3 hrs. These folks had never seen anything like it. I'm from Florida....I knew....😬....
The water rose where we were
20+ ft out of the river in about 30 min. We left the hotel with an 8 mo old baby in my arms....AND I was 4-5 mo pregnant and climbed a steep embankment behind the hotel to get to a gym that was on top of the hill...
I'll never forget clawing the ground and grabbing clumps of grass and praying as we scrambled up the steep hill w the rising water close on our heels....
I had put a large black garbage bag over my baby's whole body and hugged her tight up against me. I knew she was able to breathe because she was crying and I could hear her breaths
The water was lapping at the front step of the gym when we got there.
And FINALLY it stopped....
On the OTHER side of the gym was a deep ravine area full of mobile homes...and people were swimming toward us with children in their arms....one man who could not swim had a 1 yr old boy on his shoulders...
And the water was over the Father's head....he would take 2-3 steps and jump straight up to gasp for air.
OMG!!.... a man came up in a John boat w a little motor.
He saw the man too and went straight for him....
Grabbed the baby by his tee shirt and the father grabbed on to the side of the boat🤯
Both arrived safely.....can u say nightmare.........during Katrina, I was in my 50s, I think....i worked around the clock at my hospital in florida so that nurses from OUR hospital could go to help out over in Louisiana.
I knew a LITTLE about they were going into. Camille in Illinois was NOT Katrina in New Orleans and surrounding communities,
But it taught to seriously pray for those girls who went over to N.O.....😢
@@debbiehall3759 thanks
@@braeutchen41 wow! What an ordeal you & others went thru :-(
We who haven't seen these things have no idea ♡
Driving to Oklahoma & Tenn to attend our grandchildren's high school graduations 8 years ago we passed an area that had been hit by a tornado. I just sat there & cried. You can see it on the news but seeing the devastation in person is very moving :-(
Denise … Greetings from Meridian. I think Katrina surprised a lot of people. Even up here above you.
After powdering I put the powder back on the trays with parchment laying over and dehydrate a couple hours more.
Out of curiosity what does this do? Just removing as much moisture as possible?
@@outrageousacresyes, any sneaky moisture that's left over *and* heat can build up when blending
Great idea for safety
Once you turn your eggs into powder how much longer do you dehydrate for???
Q. You just fit parchment over the powder on the trays? This limits the powder from flying about or dusting the unit? (I am new to dehydrating eggs. Going to do my first batch tomorrow. 115 degrees, 12-14 hrs, break it up and turn over at 10 hrs. Now… blend it and return it another 2 hrs with parchment overhead for least moisture possible?
Does anyone know if these store well in mylar bags with oxygen absorbers?
We are Saved by Grace Through FAITH NOT WORKS. Salvation is a free gift from GOD given to those all who will believe LORD JESUS CHRIST DIED AS A SALVATION LAMB for our sins by the BLOOD OF LORD JESUS CHRIST HIS BLOOD CLEANSES Our SINS !!
Coffee filters are my go to for the barrier
PLEASE NOTE: I covered the amount of egg powder and water to equal one egg at 18:41
I dont understand what you mean by this?
@@markr.1584 fast forward video to 18:41. It is 1 Tbl spoon of egg powder to 1 - 1 1/2 TBL of water
Can you dehydrate milk? 🙏🏼🇺🇸🙏🏼🇺🇸
Never mind I found your video about milk lol sorry
Have you used the eggs much?
Thanks Heidi, I finally got my silicone trays today for my Crawford dehydrator. I've got 8 trays full of 32 eggs going now. You are an excellent teacher and love how detailed you get with the processes you use. I used my stick blender and do 4 at a time in the container it came with. I do it right in my sink on a rack. I've got the washed eggs on the left side. Bowl for shells, blending cup in the sink on rack and the stick blender resting on the edge with the messy end over the sink. Racks are stacked with trays on the counter and dehydrator fits on the small counter space to the left of my sink so I can easily pour the raw egg on the trays right from where I'm working. Now I'm going to get my brake bleader set up for tomorrow morning. Thanks to one of your subs I know that a pint will hold approximately 18 eggs. God IS good all the time! :)
Talk about alignment!! I just told my fiance last night, "Heidi, my go-to homesteading human, dehydrates her eggs. I'll watch another video on how she does it." We have accumulated 50 eggs from our beautiful hens and don't want their hard work going to compost.
Thank you, beautiful soul!!
Wow! I thought the same! My first try had a lot of oil & I worried about it going rancid. Thanks for giving the extra push to go further and test some!
Water glass fresh eggs.
I often pickle excess eggs (hard boiled first, of course). I love them as a snack or in salads. Surprisingly, in spite of being pickled they work fine in most recipes that use hardboiled eggs.
Maybe donate some of the eggs to a local food bank to share with people who need them.
As a side note on cleaning your blender - I clean my blender with hot water 2/3 full and a couple of drops of dawn dish soap into the blender. Replace the lid and turn the blender on. This cleans the inside of the blender great! Sometimes I have to take a bottle brush after blending but not often.
I do the same thing, works a treat, and when done right away it means there is no issue with dried food stuck under the blades, or other hard to get to places.
Running hot soapy water in a blender to clean it is one of the most wonderful, time saving, knuckle saving tips I've ever been shown!
I wish I could recall who showed me that trick, so I could give 'em credit.
God bless 'em!
Great tip!!! I noticed once dried, they dust is super sticky.
Great tip !
Dang! I learn so much from reading these comments!!
Dehydrated my first batch of 2 dozen eggs, and they turned out great! Powdered them up and sealed for storage. Thank you so much!
You answered my question regarding salmonella!
Trying to dehydrate raw eggs today...only have the plastic reys and life lesson for me today...I have a nesco gardenmaster...I can only put 4 eggs per tray...had leakage...until these are done dehydrating, I cannot clean the base....found eggs for less than $1 a dozen, so experimenting isn't too costly for me!
I am always learning from you, thanks for all of your wonderful videos~TexasMom
She is a plethora of information!
Last year, I watched your video about why you would not be getting a freeze dryer, which convinced me to just get a good dehydrator instead of trying to continue using the cheap one I had. So fast forward - I finally got a good cabinet type dehydrator/air fryer combo and am learning to use it. Thanks for the inspiration, Heidi! Eggs and milk will definitely be on my list once I get those silicone trays.
me too Julie.
What is the name of the machine you got please ?
@@krisyas3136 After doing a bunch of research and reading reviews, I bought a GoWise Mojave air fryer/dehydrator. The best price I found online was Bed Bath and Beyond for about $155 and free shipping. It's made in America. You can override the presets by time and temperature. It has 5 stainless dehydrator mesh trays and comes with air fryer trays, an open basket, rotisserie round basket and skewers. I've been really pleased with it so far.
COSORI is a great machine
So thankful for all the information you've offered in this video. With so much rain in our area the past 4 weeks, my eggs have been dirty. I have given 12 dozen away and get about 55 eggs weekly. I'm definitely going to try dehydrating instead of giving them away. I'll also freeze some for baking. Thank you, Heidi. I love your channel. It's packed full of wisdom from experience.
I'm new here and just found your channel.. I'm wanting to start dehydrate foods for prepping
Thank you for helping us learn 👍
Blessings 🙏
Thank you, I waterglassed my eggs last year. This year I will be dehydrating them. Love all your useful topics.
I had 3 5 gallon buckets full of eggs waterglassing. That works great but takes a lot of space plus I had to keep checking the water level. Trying dehydrating this spring
I’m Sooo glad you talked about the dehydrated eggs feeling oily! I started dehydrating my eggs but they were so oily I was afraid I had done something wrong🤣. I will start over and get to dehydrating them as I collect extra. Your video is the best on this subject and believe me I have watched many!!
How neat to see your episode on this! Four days ago I finished dehydrating 108 whole eggs and all that powder fits perfectly in 3 quart-sized canning jars. For me I mix 1 T. of egg powder with a bit less than 2 T. warm water and, voila, eggs that I can use in baking or cooking. The amount of water is to personal preference. It is a game-changer especially since the eggs I bought went up 50% since last week. Even at the higher price it is worth having them on hand with the Avian Flu and losing so many chickens.
Did your chickens actually die from avian flu? I’m so sorry for your loss.
Thanks so much. I was wondering how many would approximately fill a pint or quart. So helpful!
Wow 108 eggs! What temp did you dehydrate your eggs at?
@@anitamarshall7528 Dehydrate raw eggs no higher than 115 degrees F. It's in the video. :)
@@kathryngagne5813 thank you Kathryn, I did watch the video and noted Heidi’s temp of 115. However,I’ve been doing my research (as Heidi encourages us to do),and watching numerous other channels’ videos and have noted varying temps by the creators and commenters, like yourself, who successfully dehyd. eggs ranging from 115-to 145 degrees who, even with such a wide range can still successfully use their eggs in baking and scrambling. Another channel says to keep between 138- 140 to keep in raw state otherwise it would be completely cooked and not work in baking . It’s quite confusing to me because another channel dehydrates at 145(which according to most channels is no longer in raw state and still is able to take the powdered eggs and use them successfully in baking breads cakes desserts etc..
Heidi had asked for others to share their experience with eggs and I was just wondering if you dehydrated successfully at a different temp..
I just started dehydrating my first batch. I separated the whites/yolks so that when its done, I can make egg white bread without buying the bag of egg whittte powder. Pretty stoked to see this. Thanks Heidi.
My husband has to eat egg whites. High cholesterol. So, I got four cartons of the egg whites that are colored yellow and dehydrated them. They are perfect!!!! No terrible egg smell.
The oil in eggs is where the vitamins are!
I love my Cosori and the silicone mats! Hubby dropped a new carton of eggs yesterday but I was able to save them by cracking them and putting them in the fridge. I’m going to dehydrate them right now-thanks Heidi!
How many scrambled eggs per tray, just 4?
I just put some egg whites in the dehydrator. I will report later on how they whip up. 💕
That's great. Can't wait to hear how it well it works.
I'd like to make a chiffon cake this way, if it works.
I whipped my whites first.. less mess.
how did it work?!
@@amandalines530 Not sure if you are asking me.. it worked great but takes A LOT to make 1/2
Thank you for vid asking hubby to get me the nesco silicone sheets so I can dehydrate along with water glassing my eggs.
Thank you for this video. I just got a dehydrator. When we moved here to Florida from Maryland, my dehydrator had been put in storage and is still up there. So, I bought a new one. I have to be honest, I have never thought of dehydrating eggs. The only thing that I have dehydrated over the years is fruit and vegetables. After watching this video, I'm on a mission! I can't wait to try it.
You should make jerky - it's amazing. That's actually why we bought our first dehydrator 30 years ago.
The silicon trays are the bomb. And hold up use after use after use. I love mine and have dehydrated a LOT of eggs and other things on them. 👍🏼
I blend, fit, and dehydrate a total of 28 eggs each time, using the 6 trays. I must fill them up more I guess.
Love your channel!! Learning a lot! Thank You and God bless you!!
Thank you for making this video. Very informative and easy to follow. I had no idea there were silicone mats for the dehydrators. I saw a video that said if you are allergic to cats, it's not their dander but a protein in their saliva that we are sensitive to. He recommended dehydrated raw egg powder, lightly sprinkled over the cat's food and it would "neutralize" that protein resulting in no more allergic reaction.
Logical and reasonable information. It's so nice to hear well thought out information. thankful for individual thought processes. Thank you for sharing.
A dozen whites, angel food cake. Egg yolks, pudding's. Cream pies.
I just want you to know Heidi, I took a full page of notes; that's how much great information you give in this one video. Thank you so much!
Good Morning 💕
Good morning! Hope you all are having a blessed day!
Thanks for the video and the helpful comments.
Yes, you can make meringue with re-hydrated dehydrated powdered egg whites.
Definitely. Being keto, egg white powder is a necessity. It makes excellent zero carbs breads and cakes. The yolks make delicious lemon curd and puddings.
Wow! Thanks! Meringue, curds and puddings. So I’ll separate them to dry each. Awesome🙂
I just dehydrated separated eggs (three dozen). The whites were beautiful, all sparkly, but not really white. They had a yellowish cast. The yolks were very yellow-orange. Yolks turned out fairly oily, so I haven't powdered them. I think I will use them pretty soon in custard, lemon curd, etc. The whites powdered beautifully and whipped well. They were very glossy and looked thicker than fresh whipped whites, probably because I used a one to one ratio to reconstitute them. I baked gluten free bread with them and they did fine. It was more work than I had expected--will I do it again? Maybe. Probably...lol
thanks so much for sharing your results! I'm waiting for my "fruit leather" sheets to try this very thing! these white and yolk powders are used for baking egg white bread (keto) and are prohibitive to purchase!
Yay I just thought of dehydrating eggs and here you are. It's my next project.
We love you Mrs H.
Dehydrating liquids a few years ago was difficult, but I bought round pizza pans at the dollar store and cut parchment paper circles for the pans. This wasn't perfect, but it did work and I didn't have to use plastic trays.
Could you explain. Round plastic pans, round metal pans then paper then smear the egg and dehydrate? The pans fit your dehydrator and worked. I'm assuming you have a round dehydrator. I didn't know anything solid could go in a dehydrator. I'm just trying to work this out in my head. If you wouldn't mind, what all liquids did do? Thank you vicki
@@VWilt-so3ws The pizza pans from the Dollar Store are small enough to fit into my stainless steel, ten tray, dehydrator made by LEM. I line the pizza pans with parchment paper that I have cut in circles and make sure there is enough of an edge on the paper so the liquid doesn't go under the paper. Because the pans are small enough, there is enough air flow around the edges of each of the ten racks. If you're uncertain, start small as I did with just a few parchment lined pans in the dehydrator. I did this process because I am not a fan of plastic, unless absolutely necessary. I use this process only for liquids.
Is it aluminum round pizza pans with the holes?
I store the dried powder in a canter that is air tight canter that has an cover with 4 tabs that supposedly is air and water tight
🌞Good morning Heidi thanks again for sharing this information with everyone.
Very helpful 😊. Not just meringue but Angel Food Cake 😋 out of the whites of the eggs.
Thanks again for another helpful video Heidi. So much information, I always look forward to your videos. Thank you 💕 xx Cathi xx
Thank you for you're input, and pointing me towards this video. I've got silicone nesco sheets with lips on my Christmas list. Planning on getting more and more use out of my dehydrator.
I've not tried this, but it looks very interesting. I usually freeze them, & have Whole egg powder, ground Chia & Flax for emergencies. I do grind up the shells though, to add Calcium to my Mini Hydroponic system. 👍
Glad I have Microgreens, no Veg whatsoever in Lidl today, apparently there's strikes in Spain. Who knew. 🤔
TFS RC, & take care too everyone. ❤🙂🐶
Heidi, thank you SOOOOO much for all the information you share on your channel. A good friend of mine just sent me a link to your videos the other day and I'm hooked! I love the commonsense way you do things and your can-do attitude and just everything about your food prep methods. I'm a newbie at this and just dehydrated my first batch of Vidalia onions today and I'm so happy with the results. Look out world because now all I can think of is "What can I dehydrate next?????" 😁
I feel the exact same way! I somehow managed to bump into 1 of Heidi's videos about 2 weeks ago, and I absolutely love her! She is a very common sense person, who loves her God, and works very hard to be a good steward of all the many Blessings that she receives. I believe that God is using her and her talents in a very special way to help a lot of other people who just want to get back to a more wholesome and simpler way of life. 6:36
Wow Heidi you are amazing. With your expert instruction and suggestion on the silicone trays for my nesco I was successful in drying my first batch of 20 eggs. They came out perfect and is was so easy. I use a big rectangle container from the dollar store and picked up the whole tray and dumped them in without trying to just remove the silicone part. No spill and then right in the blender then the jar with a mason jar funnel. I did blend them up and dried just a bit more just to be sure. Thank you for all you share. Perhaps now I will be more successful with my tomato powder this year and much easier to clean up. Again thanks and God Bless.
Thank You, Heidi. The handheld Foodsaver vac-sealed my regular mouth jars just fine once I removed the upside down second lid. God Bless!
I took your suggestion and bought the green silicon sheets. I have a Nesco. You said it will take about five eggs. That is the perfect amount. I use an 8 cup Pyrex cup or a high sided sided bowl. I only do five eggs at a time and I use my immersion blender with the whisk attachment. The high sides help to keep it from making a mess. I pulse them until they are blended and then finish with a steady speed for a few more seconds until it’s blended well. Then I just pour them into the tray. The clean up is super easy.
Perfect timing. That was on my list to do today
I use my hand mixer, which whips the eggs up really good, and easier clean up
Today I was so happy when my new drying sheets arrived. no more problems with fruit running over edges. Last night I already took eggs out of the freezer to beat them with the blender on pulse. It is a smooth mass because they are still very cold. Immediately filled the sheets and put them in my Vita5, similar to the Cosori. Because I forgot which temperature is best, I set up this video. For me Dutch 35 celcius is the right temperature I already had it on. 🤦🏻♀️Just reminded me that it may not have been such a good idea to use the eggs from the freezer. Anyone have any idea if I can let them or get them out the dehydrater. Too excited and not thinking. If it's no problem haha then my advice is to freeze eggs first to fill the sheets with the eggs without any problems. It will be too nice buth who knows.
Thank you Heidi for all the important skills you share with everyone. It must have been a long road to get this expertise. I would like to take a little wisdom from you on my way. Thank you, God is good and you are a blessed person 🙋🏻♀️
You can put a little soap in your blender and put 2 cups water then blend it, it cleans it's self that way and all you need to do is rinse. I hope this helps.
O yes, I have had many tell me this and I have tried it but the problem is that method still does not clean between the gasket and the base which is also important
After your last video on dehydrating eggs, I dehydrated about a dozen pint jars, but I have to admit I haven't used any yet. I give away so many eggs to my Mom, neighbor & ladies from Bible study, so I haven't done any lately. We're looking into getting a rooster, I only have hens now, so I don't have to buy another round of chicks this year. Many Blessings!
We keep thinking of getting a rooster but being in town in a neighborhood, I just do not feel comfortable. Though I know most of my neighbors would not care, with other things going on in the world right now, I do not need another trumpet making sure everyone knows I have back yard fowl...I am sure you et my drift. One neighbor who has clearly lived in a complete state of fear since early 2020 has already texted me about making sure I keep my chickens feed and water where other birds cannot get to them. I know she loves my chickens but I also know she would be the first to report them if she suspected anything
@@RainCountryHomestead One of the benefits of being in the country in a farming community where almost everyone has some kind of livestock. My nearest neighbor also used to keep chickens and mine don't bother them, but I know what it's like to live in a neighborhood. (plus she gets free eggs and other produce in season). I do have great neighbors though.
Our closets friends live just out of town on 40 acres and have a lot of chickens. My plan is to buy or barter for chicks from them. We already do a lot of swapping such as I took a quart of dried nettle and in exchange got some dried mullein since it will be awhile before mine are big enough to give me much. I also have shared with them many of my volunteers and root cuttings from herbs (marshmallow, comfrey, nettle, and so on). It is great to have friends we can do this with and really help each other out :D
@@RainCountryHomestead It is really sad what the "Drummers" are doing to our Farmers! Do not get a Roaster, as my DIL lives in a sub-division and she will only keep her Hen's. To many Drummers out there that want to starve us all. Your post's are great, please keep up sharing your knowledge. Thank you.
ugh.. roosters. only 1/10 are good to the hens; so there is that. we got half roosters from atwoods one year.. I couldn't even give them away. 3rd year, finally got a trusted papa to watch the hens and I won't let the neighbors offspring in the house to pull his hens away from him. papa won't attack me, won't attack the hens or children and he calls his girls and they listen. he takes them in at night where it is safer.❤
Hey Heidi. Thank you for all your information. I have learned so much about many things from you. I use my Magic Bullet to mix my eggs and to grind them into powder. It's easy to clean.
I really appreciate all your teaching. Thank you.
Good info, thanks! Our hens are laying faster than we can eat, good long term storage idea! Subscribed.
I l-o-v-e dehydrating eggs.
I need to get the silicon trays. I have a Nesco, but considering a Cosori as a second dehydrator, so we can dry herbs and veg AND eggs/bone broth/jerky at the same time.
I only have those fruit roll up trays. Plastic (I know, I know...🙃) I have noticed that the trays warped and are not flat enough, so the eggs flowed funny and spilled, making a mess. I even used a level to ensure the dehydrator was level. But, it still worked, and we are very happy with the results. They took 10-12 hours @ 115F. But we're not in RAIN country...😁
I have a dedicated "coffee" grinder for pulverizing animal products. I have a second carafe for our blender, so I'll try that next time. And I cannot get the regular lid sealer to work. Ever. And I use the brake bleeder, exclusively. And two lids. Bummer.
Have you noticed that the white printing on the silicon tray comes off? There was a reviewer on amazon who washed the thing and it came off, leaving flecks of paint.
I want to get those silicone trays soon, to dry bone broth, vegetable slurries, and ... more eggs!
I had the same thing happen with my plastic trays when I was drying milk. I kept pouring and was wondering why the tray was not filling up all the way then finally realized it was going out all over the counter! haha! Nope, I have used mine quite a few times, at least the Cosori ones, and they still have all the printing on them
I've done at least 6 dozen. So far so good !
You're AMAZING!
Awesome Heidi and thank you! Great Grace to you and your family! Sandy
Great video! Thanks for sharing this! I've just started my journey into dehydrating and you have inspired me so much! I too prefer the break bleeder. I find it gives a longer lasting seal than my vacuum sealer does. It gets hard on arthritic hands but your table tip helps so much. I was worried about messing up the hose but between the vacuum sealer, break bleeder and the foodsaver there is plenty extra hose if needed. It's so awesome that you are also a fellow believer. ❤
Timely advice. Thank you so much.
Thank you. I love your channel and your common sense way of doing things.
Thanks so much for your information. I'm just soaking up all this information and my dehydrator hasn't arrived yet. I want to get started!!!
Thank you Heidi. 🙂
Funny story, although not so much at the time: when I got the silicone trays last year I realized that the dehydrator is a Snack Master so it's a bit smaller. I also noticed some of the edges were a bit warped (bought used).🙄😄 Anyway, now I'm on the hunt for another dehydrator. I was still able to dehydrate tomatoes and eggs but not as much at a time.
Blessings!💜
Some dehydrators have just trays for sale. I bought more online for my dehydrator so I could do more at a time.
Great clip Heidi. I have been on the look out for a powdered egg help clip.
Cheers and Beers. 😁
You absolutely NAILED “the next question is going to be! Hahaha I’m like…. You read my mind. I’ve been looking for ways to stock pile long term food and can’t afford a freeze dryer. This is great!
😊
Thanks for a great idea. I've been trying to figure out how to store my extra eggs besides freezing or water glassing! Now I know!
Thank you, Heidi for a new update on the dehydrate eggs. I am still wanting to try this; but we are still busy packing and once we are moved, I am going to try it. *lol* I hear someone chiming in the background! I love it Heidi, as you are so real, and I just love you just keep going on. *grin*
Hi, I just wanted to say that I use a Nesco dehydrator but it is already a pre set temperature of 160 degrees at all time,but I have been dehydrating my eggs with the silicone trays and I have had no problems with dehydrating the eggs,they actually dry quite nicely without cooking the eggs! Just thought I would add my experience to this awesome process! Thank you for sharing all your wisdom,I enjoy watching your videos.♥️
I guess you are talking about the brake bleeder pump. It is found in automotive stores
@@RainCountryHomestead Hi Heidi, I don't have a brake bleeder,but I do need to purchase one soon. I was talking about the original Nesco dehydrater, it has a pre set temperature at 160 and I can't adjust the temp,it runs at 160 at all times...it seems strange since most have a controller. It's the cheap $45.00 Nesco that is mostly sold for making jerky but I use it for many things including dehydrating my eggs and it never cooks the eggs,I'm really surprised at the results but it works great considering the temp is so high. Thanks again,you're the best!♥️ Always looking forward to more great and useful information!
@@terripoulin3 sorry, that reply was meant for a different comment. Not sure how it ended up under yours
@@RainCountryHomestead I understand now, that makes sense it does happen! 🙂
I have the same Nesco dehydrator and plan to try this tomorrow and hopefully it takes 12-14 hours I’ll check it after 8. Do you remember how long it took you?
Thank you for all your tips. I'm going to dehydrate some eggs!
Talk to me! A few of the “popular” RUclipsrs say to not dehydrate raw eggs because it’s “not safe”. One said to dehydrate at a high heat . I have dehydrated raw eggs before but no wondering. With what’s happening with laying chickens, I want to have lots of eggs long term
If you are rehydrated and cooking as normal, you should be fine.
I just purchased the silicone trays for my Excalibur. What a game changer. Dehydrating eggs is so easy with these. Thank you for recommending.
I am finding I also really like them for dehydrating ground meats as it allows me to keep some of the fat in them for better flavor.
I'm a new subscriber; you're a wonderful teacher, full of great information in all your videos.
Catching up on some videos (can only view a few here and there) and caught this one - perfect timing... trying it this coming week. Thank you. 😊
You give so much info about dehydrating foods. You are full of information and im so glad i found your channel. I've only started canning less than a year ago and learning what u can dehydrate. I'm definitely saving ur channel and first things on the list are milk, cheese and eggs to dehydrate. I thought they could only be freeze dried. Thank you so very much.
Good job explaining!
Hello Heidi!! Awesome video! You are my go to woman with all the knowledge of how to preserve and how to keep things longer than we ever intended to! I have and continue to learn so much from you! Thank you very much for sharing your experience and knowledge with all of us! My daughter gets a bunch of fresh eggs and I try to use them up and share them with friends but I want to do this! And I would love to try the whites separated from the yokes and make a meringue!! And for tiramisu the Italian dessert! I also love those 1/2pints and the pint and a half jars as well.
God bless you and your family and if the newest little one has come yet I hope all is well with that one too!!
I use a small fan shaped paint brush. Works under the blades perfectly
Thanks for this… getting chickens this summer so hopefully this will come in very handy!
I just bought a Cosori dehydrator this week. I need to get those silicone mats so I can make the dehydrated eggs. That will be excellent. Thanks so much for this video! 👩🍳
Me too. I agree with you on the mats. Excited to use it.
I have a Cosori and love it!!!! I got extra trays (silicone) and mesh screens and have done all kinds of stuff.
love the chop stick idea!
Back in the bad old days, we were on USDA commodities and received powdered eggs in paper/foil pouches(mac and cheese packets?). Had 2 that were almost 3years old (I thought we were rotating the stock, oops). They were fine in the zucchini bread and muffins.
I loved those eggs. They made the best egg noodles!
I just started with four eggs to begin with to test it out. Thank you.
I really love my Cosori! I haven't done eggs yet but probably will when we have abundant eggs this summer.
I CANT WAIT to get chickens! I absolutely loved having them back in the day! Although I do not dehydrate/dry my eggs for the fact that I am still buying them from the store, I watch all your videos because they are extremely excellent! When I do get my own chickens, I will know exactly what to do with the eggs! You really do go above and beyond for your subscribers! God bless🙏🥰🐔🐣
Thank you! I really enjoy your videos. So many people are freeze drying and that is something I can’t afford, and I don’t have the space for it. I am in an apartment so the smaller size is perfect, and love all my jars of dehydrated food. I did not have good luck when I tried to dehydrate canned tomatillos, they were glued to the fruit trays. I’m ordering the silicone to try again with diced tomatoes and of course eggs! Thanks!
What all kind of liquids do you dehydrate please. Thank you vicki
OMG!! You’re AMAZING!!! I’m going to learn a wealth of information from you! THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR SHARING YOUR TALENTS!!! 💕
Another great video. I was told to boil the eggs then dehydrate. I’m going to try it this way.Thank you Heidi.❤
Good morning . I got my round kitchen bright silicone rounds for my Cosori Do you know how many eggs per tray? I’m excited to try a lot of your recipes starting with the eggs.Have a great day.😊
hmm i never tried dehydrated eggs before also for camping great idea 😀
I just received my silicone mats for this purpose.
We have a rectangle dehydrator with a vent chamber, I take a silicone sheet, mark where the vent chamber is and I cut out the circle smaller than the vent chamber so when it slides on it’s naturally raised, have to take my time putting it on but it works as long as I don’t fill it too much
Great info, I love your delivery -- fast, clear, packed with information. Thanks for what you are doing.
Good timing to re-visit this process. With our new food issue, this will be a good idea. I did order the silicone trays a while back but haven't used them. Now might be the time. Thanks!
They’re great. I use them for eggs all the time. Any liquid is easier to dry with them.
Due to our new food issues, I’m wondering how to be able to store these long term.
Thankyou so my ch for video...i have dehydrated eggs and was concerned about the presence of oil ...i definitively feel better about it....😊
Thanks Heidi I just I just got my silicone ribbed trays in the mail. Anxious to try to dehydrate some eggs Thank you so much for the information. I really enjoy your channel and how you explain things
Thank you so much. I kept dehydrating the eggs trying to get rid of the oil. Now I will just go in and put them into the jars.😘😘
I think I added a comment on the last video about foamy eggs dehydrating faster. I should have said , for me, it seems to dry faster as there are no extra wet spots I have to worry about.
Heidi ... perfect timing once again. I'll be setting up another new freezer in a day or two and will then have space to freeze some eggs. Being single, I'll take a hint from your use of the 1/4 pint jars. Seems that would be the perfect size for me. Thanks so much for sharing your information with us.
Someone mentioned (maybe in another thread) about freezing in breast milk bags. I bought a small pkg to try but haven't done it yet.
