I've been creating powders from just about everything for about 30 years now. It's cool to see someone else doing this.
I just dehydrated lemon juice but it's so sticky. How can it be made to have it flow?
It’s becoming more known and popular!
I want to make Heinz 57 into a powder. How do I do that?
No hype - no selling, just amazing beneficial info shown for all the right reasons. Thank you!
You got it. Thanks for hanging out with me here.
I pick up older mushrooms from my farmer"s market, dehydrate them and make a mushroom powder that is an excellent addition to soups and stews. Most markets have a scratch and dent section for their old produce that I raid it whenever I see stuff I can roast, pickle, smoke, dry or freeze for future use.
Hot Sauce I like the way you think...this stuff should be taught in school...thanks!
Thats a reallygood idea..thanks!
That's a terrific idea unfortunately my favorite farmers market sold it's property to Amazon and it's gone now. The closest mkt in town doesn't give you nothing cheap. Sad.
I did this with my excess Jalapenos from the garden. I dried them and powdered them and used it in cooking and as a "hot sauce" in soups, burgers, etc.
I dehydrate all my citrus peels and use them for baking, spices and added to my tea blend. Good job.
great Idea, for teas.
Would like to know how to do advacdo into powder for a fact mask.
Katie Grazier
When I use dehydrate during winter, whole house get nice’n warm.
This is a great idea.
How much of the lemon powder would you use with your tea bag or do you use tea leaves. What other tea ideas do you have as I'm very interested
I dry orange peels in the sun and then blend it with some sugar and make my own orange kool Aid. My son loves it. Try it out if u want.
That sounds wonderful! Thank you :)
You could also use the lemon powder as a fast and easy lemonade. Put some powder in a cup of water, stir in some sugar and voila, you have a personal cup of lemonade. 😊
you could use it to make ice tea too
use organic oranges then that is the safest
How can i do that?? Gas oven for 24 hrs is a lot of money XD
I ran across a moringa tree about three years ago. Was so fascinated with it I had to grow one. They don’t do well here in Arkansas. I sent my brother seeds and he now has about 20 trees in his yard. He lives in Corpus Texas. I dried my leaves and use it on soups. I use the leaves in everything. I wish I could grow the tree here.
Omg! When you said “smell it “ You made me approach my nose to the iPad! 🤣🤣🤣
Me too. Lol.
Hahaha I commented the same 🤣
Dido
You make me laugh 😂
Same 😣😅😅😅
I've made lemon powder amongst others before. I have a general countertop dehydrator and I did the peeling method. I did it to make teas so I didn't grind it up into a powder. I also ground up orange peels, fresh mint, garlic and onions to make my own garlic and onion powder.
Lemon powder goes great with fish as you mentioned. It also goes very well and pastries, like a lemon cake. It works well with icings or as a flavoring agent for little treats.
I would also recommend not grinding it so fine and leaving lemon chips or flakes so you can make wonderful teas.
Great video! I used my oven too before I got my dehydrator. I got the less expensive brand than the Excalibur and it does EXCELLENT. A tip for your oven dehydrating...if you put a wine cork or something similar in size in the oven door to crack it a bit it will help speed up dehydration and it won't actually "cook" your items like it can with door closed. Leaving it cracked just leaves room for moisture to escape making it all even out. Just a suggestion is all. I'm no pro but it did a good job for me so I thought I'd share. You can use your dehydrated items for everything from seasoning, medicines, soaps, shampoos, vinegars, smoothies, all kinds of goodies. Thanks so much for all you do! You've got a great channel and I love, love, love your family! God Bless! ~Lisa
great tips, thanks!
Lisa do you also cook the lemon peel for 24 hours at lowest temperature? How long does it take to dry in dehydrator?
Thank you for the tip
Will u share what the name of your dehydrator is?
marshall Samson stainless quiet 6 tray I guess
My food dehydrator has the door positioned with a natural gap. Doesn't seal, because that's the way it was designed.
I make mushroom powder by drying out the stems in a toaster oven and then running them through a coffee grinder. Makes great broth!
Also leave it in the oven for 24hrs?
They are an amazing addition to soups and stews and many sauces. Just have to be careful, as in half a tsp careful. :)
I use my lemon powder on chicken mixed with some fresh cracked black pepper. Also, use it in my soft sugar cookies and shortbread cookies. It works very well with seafood and I love it in my Shrimp Scampi. I also dehydrate tomato paste and mushrooms (separately) and then grind them into a powder. Wow - very convenient in soups, stews, sauces, and gravy! I never did pumpkin - need to work on that. Thanks for the great idea!
The powdered pumpkin seeds can actually be used as a flour in a flour mixture for gluten free cooking.
We use it in some baking. We love having it in our pantry :)
Hi that sounds interesting! please can u tell me the receipe?thankyou shaz
Nice to know thank you :)
Omg great idea. I'm going to do that flour next. My granddaughter is a type 1 diabetic and has Celiac. So I am experimenting with all gluten-free flour.
Also in Mexico they make a gorgeous sauce with it for chicken etc. Put it in the skillet just add water and spices...
Here in Barbados, Caribbean we've always kept our citrus peels..dry in the sun..'no dehydrator' and grated for various purposes..I have a good processor so I can make the powder easily..I do this with lots of things I grow!👏👏🅱🅱
It would be so fascinating to visit other places around the world to experience all the different methods of preserving foods. :)
I know that my experience and exposure is so small which is why simple things like this excite me so much LOL.
Blake Kirby...It's amazing that's why I check out lots of sites..great fun👍😀🌞
lovely kid Drying in the sun is a great idea. I have lots of sun in the Summer so I'll see how I can do that too.
Blake Kirby With the sun , the colour darkens if exposed to the sunrays directly.
Super simple crisp to the point illustration of end to end process ! It is like handbook not only about making process but its usefulness ! Thanks a lot !
I’m going to make some lemon powder today to use for my chicken, fish and also for making my own fresh lemon pepper and various rub mixes. If it’s not too bitter, I will use it in my lemon water as well. Thank you!
You can put the unused lemon juice into icecube trays and freeze it, for longer term storage (and to free space in the fridge). You can also measure out 1 cup and see how many cubes it makes, to make measuring with the frozen cuber easier later.
Oh yeah, I like the idea of freezing them in known measurements to make using them later easier.
A standard plastic American ice cube tray holds almost exactly one tablespoon per cube.
Hi there, does it taste the same when you unfreeze it and make some for drinking?
This is am amazing idea
I did that last week. Works well
I just want to say you have a good TV personality. I forgot I was watching you tube
aww shucks, thanks :)
Btw..true...!
Yes . Just a bit of everything required , not more not less ☝️👍👌
Today CZcams > T.V.
He was better off :D
I'm using these dried citrus fruitpeel powders in my self made loose incense powders. Beautiful fragrance mixed with warm spices when burned/heated. Love this video Daddykirbs, thank you .
I usually hang the peals of citrus in the air to dry them, then I grind them so as to be used in cooking and sweets 🍋🍊
great idea! I use my lemon peels to make cleaner...put in Mason jar with vinigar and let it set for a couple weeks then put into spray bottles...bout 3/4 full and add water...or do full strength...but now I'm going to powder some peels....!
I like the cleaner idea :)
Blake Kirby it's a very good cleaner. I even use it in my oven. You can use any citrus peel too.
Abby Boehm I do the same thing. I use any citrus peel. What I love about the cleaner is you can spray your microwave inside to clean and never worry about residue from harsh chemicals.
The easiest way to clean your microwave is just put a quarter cup of white vinegar in a glass bowl. Microwave on full power for two minutes. Open the door to let the vinegar fumes out for a minute or so and wipe down with a damp cloth. Even the worst baked on splatters will wipe right off.
Thank you :)
Mix with pepper for lemon pepper seasoning on chicken, fish or seafood.
Good odea
Besides adding it to tea or making desserts, I've made lip balm and also added to homemade detergent.
Belle Serra can I put it on my lip stick and lip gloss making ?
@@lifewitheva8676 did you try to put them in lipstick?
I didn’t know you could do this with an oven - can’t wait to try it with all the fruits my family loves - great video !!!
I've done this with orange peels. Just by leaving the peels at room temperature until they are dried out. Works great and less energy!
Much less energy! Nice :)
Maybe more kept nutrients too
Any concern about mold.... do you cover it or leave the peel exposed to the air?
More info please
I live on the beach. How do I deal with mold and flies if I leave out overnight? How about minimizing moisture?
In cooking bread, you can use this lemon powder to substitute for salt. I have used a teaspoon of lemon powder or lemon juice, plus a teaspoon of vinegar to replace salt used in my bread. You can smell the vinegar odor as the dough proofs or rises, but you can't taste or smell it when the bread is cooked. Also, I have eaten sandwiches at a German restaurant before and had the new experience of lemon slices being placed inside of the sandwich to give it a tangy flavor. The lemon slices were thin and really added to the sandwich as to taste. YOu may also try using oranges for another dehydration project. Like say, most of these resulting spices can replace sodium in your diet and add a unique flavor to any bread or cake. Thanks for sharing..
What do you do with the pulp ?
a1930ford THIS. This sounds very useful. Would you mind sharing your breadmaking technique with lemon juice and vinegar as a substitute for salt?
@@ingrid.schulz3604 If you have a Dehidrator (e.g Nesco) you can use the leathering tray an get the pulp dried, so you can get more powder, or, you can mix some honey, oil spray the tray and you get a healthy snack
This is gamechanging! So many things I want to do with this!
Was looking for a replacement for zest in recipies, but this would be great for more, from spices, to making food dye, to broth additives, to medicine, to bath and body care ingredients, so much possibilities!!!
Thank you so much for this!!!
Thank you for sharing your knowledge. I am trying to recycle everything I have and consume less. Your demonstration is another addition of how I can use everything to its fullest. Great work.
Just a tip. Just found your videos and they are great. When you peel them lemon peel you want to peel as little of the white pith as possible. You just want the yellow skin.
Geri Bouwman actually the white part contains a lot of phytonutrients and you should use that part as well, same for other citrus fruit.
it does wonders for the gut 😊
@Geri Bouwman - Exactly. The other commenters to your comment seem to not know that the white flesh under the skin, the pith, is bitter as F.
@@10knucklechuckle But when cooked with spinach or other greens it cuts their bitterness and prevents stones in kidney and gallbladder. The pith contains excellent flavor and food value for use in savory food applications. It is desserts where it doesn't taste good and results in doubling the sugar requirement.
The pith is where all the fiber is. People think it is in the pulp. And, the bitter taste of the pith is a
valuable addition because bitter and sour thwart sugar cravings.
I never thought to use peelings. I also have used the oven for dehydrating fruits and jerky. You can also make tomato paste by placing roma tomato halves on a cookie sheet, brush with olive oil, salt & pepper and roast in a low oven for several hours.Great video. I learned something new today.
If you learn two things in one day you can take the next day off ;)
Im so glad u made this video cuz I’ve been started to make my own flavoring and seasoning. I just started so I’m still learning
I loved how he "gently" peeled the lemon with your fingers. Or "ever-so-delicately" posted & spread the lemon pulp on the wax paper. Lol!!
And the DIY lemonade was the Bonus.
😄
Fantastic idea using the citrus peel to make powder !! Thanks for sharing this one Blake, I wouldn't have thought about trying this
Glad I can help buddy :)
Blake, I've been dehydrating citrus peels for a long time. They usually work well, but, like you, I sometimes have a "darker" product than other times. The powders are awesome. I use them in teas, cakes, cookies, spice mikxtures, and even in homemade candy. Keep up the great work.
I have a lot to learn! I'm glad to hear that you are already using this wonderful resource. :)
I also have made Apple Sugar from the skins left over after making apple sauce. There has always been plenty for both ACV and apple sugar. Just dehydrate the peels and process like the lemon peels. These also make a great tea.
Kate Dansyng Oh yum! Great idea :)
Apple sugar?! What a great idea!
The apple sugar is great on cookies and to top a pie, but I like it best on oatmeal.
I am grateful that you made this video!! Thank you for being so authentic in the way you cook and the way you show simplicity for making these. I truly appreciate nature and videos like yours that can help us to enjoy the Entire Fruit and not waste any of it. 👏💪💕💖😊⭐
This is AMAZING! I am getting into baking bigtime, and I bet these powders would be a lovely addition to things like cake batter and even my homemade buttercream! I honestly wasn't sure peels were edible. Thanks so much!
I like adding strawberries to my lemonade. That is to die for. I also dry orange peal like that. Makes great orange zest chicken. Yum!
Yum!
Chana Moriel i
i love how u so patient and kind on xplaining
Thank you so much for making this video. Sometimes my fruit ends up in the trash can because I didn't eat them quick enough. Now I know how to do this with all kinds of fruits thanks to you. I've seen lemon powder, Orange powder, Mango powder, Etc. Etc. I just never thought of this. it is very expensive in the grocery stores also. Thanks again very much.
Magic powder!! Great in cakes and any kind of Italian sauce or pasta dish - just a large pinch will do. Mix with honey and glycerine and rub into your face to perk up dull tired skin. Also mix with baking soda and use as a shower or sink cleaning powder.
Freeze fresh lemons then graze them with the tiny holes on a box grater. Spread out the grated lemon on a sheet pan lined with parchment paper. Place the sheet pan in the oven at the lowest setting. After a couple of hours remove a stir. Replace in the oven. I stir mine every two (2) hours until the lemon is very dry. Powder in a spice grinder or in a food processor. I use this to make a "lemonade" that is both a vitamin C source and a lung tonic since lemon oil is useful as a treatment for lung congestion. Use the whole lemon. I sweeten my "lemonade" with powdered Stevia leaf. I do not use sugar.
I'll give that a try! Sounds wonderful.
David Bennett ... hi; just curious... do you grate all of the frozen lemon 🍋?
As I said citrus skins are a good source of D.limonene. This in vinegar makes a very good cleaner. One recommends capsules, and you put the whole thing In lemonade. Very good for you. D.limonene is a good cancer fighter
Thanks!!!! EXACTING & SIMPEL way to PRESERVE !!! and ADD another SPICE and FLAVOR, to your COOKING...
I have never heard of this before, but I think it’s an awesome idea! I’m fittin to get some lemons and start peelin!
Thank you for such a great idea, simple, healthy, and shelf stable for a long time!
Thanks a lot, I never thought about lemon powder but I am excited with the idea of using the peel that would otherwise end up being thrown away, though at home it goes to the compost pile and later used in the garden, but well, yours is a very good option.
Thanks again Blake :)
use it in recipes that you need lemon zest also you can make lemon extract from the peels not the flesh. I zests about 5 lemons for 16 oz of rum. lemons are extremely useful
Thanks bro, you just solved my travel problems for food. Now I can just pour hot water in a vacuum food jar to make a quick soup.
I love that you make it into powder. I dry lemon peel zest and remove the air from the jar to store it. I'm excited to try your powder! I've made tomato powder from tomatoes that I dehydrate.
Great idea! Thank you so much. This also works with oranges and limes.
Might have to give that a crack Blake. At the moment we freeze the lime skins but can see how dehydrating them makes a lot more sense.
Cheers sir.
It tastes so good Rob! You won't regret giving it a go.
Rob Bob's Backyard Farm & Aquaponics hi i freeze them too but how do you use them. How long can they stay frozen? I am using them for tea & in smoothies. Thx for your reply.
Hiw long can you store this powdered lemon and powdered orange?

Blake Kirby how to make dry yeast thank you regard
for lemon drink,
I suggest stirring sugar in water first, then add lemon.
for sugar wont melt easy in citric acid.
Thank you :)
I usually heat a little of the water and add the sugar to make a simple syrup first - it dissolves the sugar and blends in better.
Karen Marbach great idea :)
First, I make a simple syrup, when cooled I add the lemon juice.
Great video, very informative! I just picked the last of my Meyer lemons & have been scouring YT for different ways to preserve them. I've zested & juice a bunch, frozen slices & now I'm going to try your method. The first year we had lemons I made lemonade concentrate, sugar lemon & garlic lemon pink Himalayan salt. I'm definitely trying your dehydrating method. Thank you again for sharing.
Fabulous!! What a nice and useful idea! Thank you for sharing this info from your heart, your knowledge base, and from your home!!
Blake you could freeze the lemon juice in ice trays and then place them in freezer bags until you need them. I love your lemon powder idea, I'm gonna try it soon! I make my own garlic seasoning in a similar way with organic garlic, organic peppercorns, and sea salt.... then I share it with my family( they love it and always ask me to make more when it runs out) Great video btw!!! 👍
Someday I hope to grow some garlic successfully. My attempts so far haven't been that great. Your seasoning sounds fantastic :)
Daddykirbs Farm - A Homesteading Story watch the CZcamsr ‘Self Sufficient Me’ He has amazing ways & tips to make each thing grow 👌✌️✌️✌️
Walmart now sells little miniature ice cube trays where the cube is the size of your thumb. Probably 1 tablespoon. Get some of these and you can freeze dozens f cubes in the same square per footage of tray converted to mini cubes. When I pass thru the area of the store I get some. Make great gifts, they even have them in 3 inch cylinders ready to drop in bottled water or soda pop. Ones of lemon would be ideal. Can also push cylinder one of water into soil to water indoor plants waters soil slowly as it melts. Prevents soaking plants with too much water. Or put couple of thumb size on the soil to water the plant. I live in apartment with no pure water source. I buy bottled water for plants.
That's pure vitamin c powder!!! I add 1T to my smoothies daily!!!
im so new to this that i ordered my dehydrater and will have it next week. Lemons are gonna be one of my favorite and i woild use them on so many fish recipes and I will use it for salad dressing often ' cant wait to start,great video
I like your teaching. I don't want to buy a dehydrator, but now that I know you can used the oven I'll give that go. If I like it maybe I'll upgrade.
in soap making would be great too, nice, pampered chef pan, that one is my fav in my kitchen
Very cool… My only recommendation is use lemons that come directly from a tree and not from the supermarket. Because of the wax coating that they put on them since it's the Peel you are using you wanted to be free of wax and pesticides and all that stuff. We have several lemon trees and don't use any thing except water and sunshine :-) this is the kind of lemon you want 😊
true
I would love to have lemon trees, some people are so blessed.
@@gwenjacobs5090 , exactly
Trying to grow a lemon tree from the seed at home, I'll see if it grows and gives any lemons.
@@observer698 I am too. Mine all sprouted quite nicely. They are now 2" tall. Hoping we can pull this off.
Awesome idea! Im definitely going to do this. Thanks for sharing.
I have a bunch of Meyer lemons, every part of which I try to use. This powder is a great idea and I plan on adding some to my next batch of bone broth. The pulp juice I freeze in ice trays and add a cube to my morning cuppa broth. Thanks so much for the video!
Thank you for the side by side comparison of lemon peel and lemon pulp. Great informative video.
Peel good. Pulp not.
what did you do with the dehydrated pulp?
I've been harvesting my pink grapefruit and drying the beautiful plump rinds in my dehydrator T 118° for a day and a half. Then I powder the crunchy bits in my bullet and put into gel caps. This = 400 mg of vita c (not from China)
Your power bill must have shot up
Love it! 😃
@@lorrainem8234 so smart!!
You can try to just use a zester to get shavings, they'll dry on their own in three or four hours.
I just received a bag of lemons from a friend. I was thinking about dehydrating the zest to be used in recipes requiring zest. I hadn't thought about making it into powder. Miss watching your live shows and following your homesteading journey.
That peeling sound. So satisfying
Love adding it to soups and steeping in tea..
I am new to your channel and really enjoy your videos! I dry spices and make beef jerky in my oven all the time. May I offer you just a tiny tip? Just stick something in the door to keep it open a half inch and it will allow more moisture to escape and cut you drying time down significantly. Happy New Year!
Thank you for that tip :) Happy New Year!
thank you for the tip.
Sue Mel1 great idea.
Hi Sue Mel1 would you please share your beef jerky recipe?
Sue Mel1 Please share your beef jerky recipe with us .
Such a nice recipe that makes use of the whole lemon. Thanks. Also, I like your kitchen and ur shelves. They give me such a calming effect...
I'm so glad you enjoyed it.
I'm so excited to make this!!! I can't wait to try it on a huge range of different seafood. 😍😍
Thank you for sharing this video... I'm actually growing a Moringa tree and look forward to making it into a powder. Now I can also turn my lemons and kaffir limes into powders too! I also found your Kombucha video and started brewing my own Kombucha! :)
Nice work! I think you will like the Moringa powder for cooking :)
What does Moringa powder taste like?
I use my lemon, lime, and orange peels. I dehydrate them and grind them into a fine powder that I add to smoothies or my homemade elderberry syrup for my grandbaby. I heard that the peel has more vitamin c than the fruit, so I like that I can easily add more vitamin c to just about anything
Great video.I had a farm sink like yours before in a 100yr old farmhouse i lived in.I loved that sink!
I made this in my dehydrator. It was astoundingly good!
I do lots of dehydrating squash and pumpkin powder can be used to make soups or pies or thicken things, I make. Tomato powder for Thickening and making soup, sauces, stews, casseroles. I dehydrate kale and cabbage but don't powder them I use them on casseroles, soups, stews but I don't powder those, I do lots more. It's alway goo to have more than one method of storage so I dehydrate I mostly can and I freeze. You could get a good nesco for a good price you don't need fancy stuff like an Excalibur to do work horse and get things done
I hope to build a solar dehydrator this year :)
Thanks so much for sharing your ideas!
I have done some of all this just need recipes of how to use some of it. I did find that a 1 part pumpkin power to 4 water makes reconstituted pumpkin to be able to make a pie. So yes I have lots of that dehydrated.
kale and spinach are great for dehydrating/powdering
Moore2Life the pantrylovinprepper z
I have a moringa/kelp/miralax smoothie daily as a meal. I add dried/powdered orange peel and a little malic acid and sweetener. Gives blah foods a lot of zip.
Thanks for sharing!
FYI, when I have an excess of fresh lemon juice, I poor it into empty ice trays for freezing. I put the lemon cubes in a large ziplock bag to use as needed. Works great!
I love it, I’ll try it immediately. Thanks for sharing
use lemon powder with dried garlic powder on chicken bar-b-q's
WOW!!! Thank you so much Mr. Blake Kirby, GOD ALMIGHTY BLESS YOU ALWAYS!
I've dried my lime and lemon peels in the refrigerator. Just put them in an open container on the top shelf and let the cool air do it work!
You can also mix the lemon powder with other spices, LIKE LEMON PEPPER SEASONING. I use SEA SALT, LEMON OR LIME POWDER, TURMERIC (powdered) AND BLACK PEPPER, IT'S SO GOOD!
I wanted to make it myself due to the bunch of STUFF in the ones sold at the store.
Mr. Kirby, are you connected with "THE KIRBY VACUUM" . . . They are THE BEST VACUUM OF ALL VACUUMS!!!
Thanks for the tip about using the oven! I have a dehydrator but some times it is not enough space. I would like dehydrate more, now I can with the oven! I loved the entire video!!!
I’m excited to try this. I even have an Excalibur dehydrator. Thank you
Thanks for the video Blake! I'll be dehydrating lemons tomorrow, thanks to you, really looking forward to making this! I've been washing my lemons & freezing them whole, then I'll simply grade the whole lemon, including the seeds. I store them in zip-lock bags & back in the freezer they go! It's handy to just add the frozen lemon to sauces, tea, detox drinks, etc.
You can do other fruits and veggies it's so amazing and delish 👍🏽
Great idea. Thank you. That is going to be good for cakes, lemon and oranges.
Excellent. Lemon 🍋 powder. Yum 😋 We freeze lemon juice when we can get an abundance and they are cheap. It’s great for when they are rarer and expensive. And fill ice cubes trays - perfect for a small amount for in salad dressing or to add to a glass of water or tea for refreshing drinks. Thanks 🙏
What a great idea!!! I use lemon almost everyday. I will freeze the peels and pulps till I have enough to dry. Thanks.
Nat Kay Freezing them us a great idea:)
Pulp separate? How do you use pulp powder ? Please

Dry your peels in the sun 🌞
Nice clip.
Someday I'm going to create an outdoor space for dehydrating.
@@daddykirbs ~I just set'm next to a sunny window...works in the car too
@@rhondabailey9238 oooh..drying lemon peels in my car in the summer heat of TX sounds like a great idea! And it would make the inside of the car smell delightful.
👍🏻 Thanks for the video!
Add citrus powder when preparing couscous .. with raisins. And sunflower seed kernels. And garlic. But the citrus powder is essential!
Hey! I've recently dried fruit and made powders. I did blackberry, black grape, fig and Tomatoe. Some I dried in the sun, others in my solar oven which is basically a black car tyre stuffed with newspaper, lined with aluminum foil and a piece of glass on top! I use the powders for ice cream and on pancakes and cakes and have used the Tomatoe one in pizza and bread. And sprinkled on my salad. Am gonna try lemons
LOve your tyre idea for a solar stove ! I wonder if we could powder lemon or lime leaves they smell so nice . Im gonna try this !
I love cooking, even though it's a huge strain on my body now. Been cooking since I was 5 years old. Preground spices/herbs lose their potency faster than whole spices. So if one is willing to leave the peels whole after dehydration and only grind up what you need at the moment of cooking it will last, flavour wise a lot longer than grinding it. That being said if you burn through ground up spices in no time flat it does have an advantage to doing it at the time they are done dehydration. There is also the idea of just using a little more as it gets weaker. All of these are viable options.
What you did here could be done with oranges, limes and just about any citrus fruit really. If you have access to a lime tree consider lime leaves for Thai food. What else...Oh, a fresh bay leaf plant. Fresh bay leaves are very different than dried. Dry your own and have some fresh on hand :)
My neighbor has a Bay Leaf tree. I would like to grow some here on our farm too. I do plan on using the powder quickly but that is a great tip on grinding only what you need for the moment.
I also like to dry fresh mint leave for lemon and mint tea.
Could storing the powder in vacuum bags preserve the potency for a longer period of time?
Thank you so much for this video it's amazing.
Very useful and unique all of these
I'll have to try this. I love lemon zest. It goes great in chicken, seafood dishes. I love lemon garlic shrimp. Also good in baking. I like that you don't need a big dehydrator too. I have limited kitchen space.
Always wondered if lemon powder consist of whole lemon...now I know! Excited to make my own. Thank you! :D they are fabulous in roasted nuts!
I always wondered that too LOL
Every thing but the juice...
What I like about this is the fact it can be placed in a survival kit. Thereby one will always have vitamin c.
Heat and exposure to air usually destroy vitamin C. Hence must consume fresh.
I am impressed of ur innovativeness on food processing.I like that area.Keep on enlightening us with new n different ideas.
Just come across your videos and I dry my lemon peel with less pith and instead of grinding into a powder I pulse the peel into smaller bits than put in a pepper or salt grinder with whole pepper or sea salt so every time you grind you get fresh ground oh wow the smell and taste is incredible.
this what happen when life give you lemons you make lemon aid :)
@Kenny Benny you can make that too :) lol don't try to correct me English is not my first languish I speak American

I love this! I would mix the lemon powder with pepper... I want to try limes and use that powder on tortilla chips... Thank you for the great idea. I subscribed and hit notification... I can't wait to see what you're going to share next!
I hope to be back to making videos soon. Lots of family challenges lately have kept me from producing much video content.
Thank u so much for bring this to our attention, I actually thought of this before but never did it so thank u for this video, wow just think how many ways there is to use this method, again thank u.🤗
