Good stuff would love to play with a freeze dryer. I have to catch up on your channel
it wont take much to catch up, I fell behind on making and watching videos after the move myself. still playing catch up.
Ari: I just saw a video on another channel where they were freeze drying blueberries. It turns out that you need to pierce them. This could also be the problem with cranberries. When berries have skins they do one of two things in the freeze dryer if you don't poke the berries the either pop and make a mess or they turn into a powdery mess like powder in the centers. I know it sounds like a lot of work. One of the other commenters on the channel suggested using a new dog brush to poke the blueberries so you can do several at a time, be sure to get one with a hair release lever as it will release the berries once they have been poked. I am assuming they are talking about one with metal bristles.
Yeah, Ive seen posts on that. Already seen people say that prefreezing them breaks the skin enough for freeze drying. I might have to do a run where I try a few different methods in 1 batch.
Ari: You could mix it with strawberries to make a wonderful cobbler or pie. It can also be combined with strawberry and pineapple to make a fabulous jam. The SRP jam is my own creation and my family loves it.
Great idea! I love it. I'm getting ready to do some math and make freeze dried individual jam packs. though will need to pack the sugar separate from the rest. so that's why its going to take a little math to figure out how much of what will be needed for the recipe. leaving the sugar out so it doesn't explode in the freeze dryer. I have done some strawberry banana powder for smoothies so far. but haven't made any smoothies just yet.
I just ordered a stay fresh last week ..... I would love to see some videos of how to instructions beginning to end of what the settings are to freeze dry milk..fruit..veggies..meat...whole meal like spagetti with sause..chilie dogs... pudding and yogurt.... and then a video on the best way to reconstitute the spagti etc.......
I didn't mess with any settings, its so plug and play its ridiculous. Once everything is plugged in where its supposed to be plugged in its super easy. I will defiantly see what I can do about some of those. I was actually thinking about freeze drying some spaghetti very soon actually, so that that one will be easy. I have freeze tried some Chili already, It reconstitutes really well. I can certainly show how that's done. I probably wont do chili dogs, at least not chili dogs with freeze dried bread.. but I'm certainly down to try some chili dogs with hot dogs and chili and cheese. Setting wise, so easy. I will certainly take note of your suggestions since they fall in line with what I was already planning on doing. I may not get to all of them, but I will certainly try.
@@ariofsouthdakotathanks so much for taking the time to reply.. yes just chili dogs no bread... its reassuring to hear that it operates easily.. I'm a senior and I fully admit while I'm excited about this I was worried I might have trouble operating it
@skittlesart8917 I try and respond to everyone. Yeah its super easy to operate. But zi do suggest that when you take the probe out of food if you use it. To pull it by the metal tip. Not the cord. I broke mine right away doing that. Candy settings however I cant help with cause Im never running Candy through mine. 😅
We’ll be getting our new Stay Fresh freeze dryer in about a month. Super excited, can’t wait to start freezing drying! It’s nice to see another video on Stay Fresh, I’ve been really impressed with what I’ve learned about the quality of their freeze dryers. Thanks for the video!
That is awesome!
I have had a HarvesrRight Freeze Dryer for about 5 years nothing but problem....major problems, between dealing with HarvestRight and repairs, i couldn't run it for a whole year....so frustrating....nothing but good about a Stay Fresh definitely going to buy one
I completely understand your struggle. had the same issues and Stay Fresh has been very awesome. I've only had 1 issue and it resolved itself. Currently editing the video that shows my 1 problem and how it resolved its self as well as a 2nd option for a solution. Absolutely Love my StayFresh and I wouldn't recommend any item I didn't believe in and use myself.
Wow! That looks awesome. I'm so looking forward to watching more videos on this machine and the food you process. Cut the cranberries in half. I put mine in a food processor and sliced them that way. Mine turned out great.
Yeah, I rushed getting them in, and I will certainly plan it out better in the future. Come morning, Im finishing the eggs and a tray of mashed potatoes. But I got another awesome project planned for this weeks video. Then, I will spend the winter working on backpacking meals and food preservation.
Oh so COOL!
Its lots of fun too!
Our son and family lives SW of Sioux Falls. For Christmas this year I bought myself the Harvest Right medium size Freeze Dryer. Can't wait for the table I ordered for it to get mine set up and start using it.
That is awesome! Freeze drying is super awesome. I've been using my freeze-dried items in my everyday cooking, and they do much better than any of the dehydrated stuff. And they store so well. Its been great using it. Thankfully I never really use my table so we just pulled it from the garage. Sioux Falls is a great city. Im sad I had to move from there. So many great people there.
@@ariofsouthdakota Are you still in South Dakota?
@@user-hq4jz6lc9di moved to MN in September. But keeping the channel name.ay least for now.
@@ariofsouthdakota Gotcha. Hope to have you back one day.
I miss South Dakota so much already. Such great people!!.
That is so cool! I really want one of those. will check them out, Thank you!!!!😊
It is super awesome to have.
Love the new introduction video, should stick with that one.
Ok thanks! was thinking of changing all the old Videos to the new intro actually.
That's Awesome. I want one!
Come visit me and use mine Mom!
Have you tried freeze drying garlic? I’m looking forward to trying that because I never use my fresh garlic fast enough.
Yes actually, I recently did a batch of fresh minced garlic, it turned out great. Also did onions and the onions are super fluffy. Just bought some more and about to make a video on freeze drying them. Also about to do a video on an issue I had with oil that freaks some of us out, but its actually not a bad issue. So thats probably a video many will want to see.
Youre just like me. We both get puffed out by light activity and talking. 😂
Yeah, been having respitory issues lately unfortunately. Every time I go to the Dr about it, they continue running a covid test then calling it a day. Keeps coming back negative, but they keep testing me for it. And only that.
