I discovered Nido through your channel, and it is life changing. I don’t drink milk often, but I use it for cooking. Now, I’m never out of milk when I need it for a recipe, and I’m not wasting leftover milk either. I can’t imagine how much I’ve saved through this tip. I tell everyone about it. Thanks for sharing, AG! 👍🏻
I make up 2 cups and keep in a jar in refrig. I love Nido. I also like the Spanish section powder chicken and beef packets. I buy 1 pound of yeast and keep in a jar in refrig. It lasts forever. Soup mixes are also good. After Christmas look for cocoa flavored mixed reduced for quick sale. You can use in recipes such as brownies instead of cocoa powder and reduce the sugar. I also look for the candied fruit on clearance.
Found out that Nido Fortificada is not 100% cows milk. It contains a lot of soy protein. Asked the company how much is soy, they said it’s their private company information and can’t reveal the percentage. If you’re sensitive to soy or want to avoid it (much of soy is GMO), then please be aware Nido isn’t all dairy milk.
@@joycedagostino6074 yep. They also have "contains bioengineered ingredients" right on the label. Seems like everything has that now. All corn and all soy are gmo.
You know what I love the best about your video tutorials is that you don't replay over and over again the same beginning introduction that lasts 3 to 4 minutes. That gets old real quick after seeing it 4 to 5 times that other you tubers do to their videos. You get right to the point and teach which I appreciate so much. I love watching your videos. I tend to skip others videos because of the annoying intros they constantly play over and over. Thank you for not doing that.
Finally someone gets it! I despise long intros, they’re pointless. It’s not like we need to get a sneak peak in order to decide whether we’re gonna turn the channel on the tv. We selected the video, so start it. People use them because it makes them feel legit. If 60 min has one, then I must as well. I needed to hear someone agree with me on that. I love you.
I live in Kenya half the year where there are no grocery stores. Just markets! I'm watching your videos and bringing your recommendations with me! I can get veggies, rice and one type of beans fairly easily, but everything else is impossible.
@@Sabrina-01 it's soooo expensive and it is always stolen unless you send DHL. But DHL is like $140 just to send a document! I get two free checked bags up to 40lbs so I filled them with food 🤩 the rural locals never saw anyone bake a cake, popcorn, make cookies, rice Krispy treats or anything else. It's really fun. I get little kids coming over asking me for "Keki?" Which means "Cake??"
I like all of the powders you mentioned. I also like real lemon and real lime powder just mix it with your powdered butter and put it on your fish or any food you want a little citrus.
The dictum "Keep your powder dry" takes on new meaning. As long as we have electricity we can put chocolate in the freezer and it will store much longer than it otherwise would. Of course if a disaster leaves us without power and your freezer doesn't work any more the you are back to "normal" storage times.
I take powdered products and put them in Ball canning jars and vacuum seal them. After I fill the jar I put a coffee filter on top and a moisture bag in and seal it. Good to go!!! Stay Safe Everyone 👍👍👍
That is such a good idea! I have some of those products, but hesitate to buy the eggs and the like because the cans are so big. I'm prepping for myself, so once a can is opened, It would take a concerted effort to use up the rest of the product. But vacuum sealing them into maybe pint jars (now, while I have power and the time etc) is something to consider.
Same here, I buy those huge powdered Gateroade containers and break them down into pint size jars and put a cupcake liner on top before the lid, and then vacuum seal it. Keeps much longer.
@@felinespirits if you don't have power you can use a brake bleeder to vacuum the jars by hand. Rain Country and a couple other channels have videos showing how to do this.
Was lucky enough to find Knorrs bullion cubes at a salvage store. Both chicken and vegetable. 24 / 6 packs per box. $1 per box. Yes, that's 144 large bullion cubes for $1. I bought 2 of each. Great barter item.
Even in a grid down you can use the Jello to flavor drinking water. I've even used the orange Jello water to have kids drink to relieve the diarrhea. Something about it binds and its a good use for the littleS that can't have Imodium.
Yes, jello is safe for people who are dehydrated from a gut issue or post surgery as it is a clear liquid. You can drink it warm for a warming sugary energy booster or chill it and use it as a cooling treat. People who watch their carbs can utilize the sugar free versions. Also the instant puddings can be made with reconstituted powdered milk. It’s a great backpacking treat, as is the Jello cheesecake mix.
If you like making your own noodles from flour, water and salt, you can also add some powdered dried vegetables to the noodle dough mix. This would make a pasta similar to the dried spinach pasta or mushroom pasta or tricolor pasta you see at the supermarket.
I thought of a couple of things to add to the list; powdered bullion (I like the Knorr brand) and Gatorade. Having the electrolytes from the gator aide could be very helpful in a grid down situation where nutritional deficiencies might be common. Thanks for the great ideas AG!
Just told someone buying fruit jars at Walmart about you a couple of days ago. Hope they remember to look up your channel. He said his wife was stocking up and canning and dehydrating everything she could. I need to make a deliberate "powdered food search" at Walmart next trip. This atmosphere we are living under is becoming incredibly thick like a fog you could cut with a knife on some days.
Don’t forget Amazon. Not everything is super expensive but it takes time to look for it. Being lactose intolerant, I was delighted to find soy milk powder there.
I saw the cans at Walmart today and this is why I searched about them and this video is the first thing that popped up. We full time RV and this is an absolute great idea to make use of my storages better. It would clear my fridge out for sure.
Powdered foods and seasonings are important to have in our stockpile. I hadn't thought about Jello, so I'll be adding that as well. So many great ideas! Take care! 💜
Great additions to the pantries, AG! I add a tablespoon of the powdered cream and powdered butter to oatmeal and other foods to increase the calorie and fat content!
Great video, AG! I have all the same powdered foods you showed, except the Nido Powdered Milk. I do have Augason Farms Morning Moo milk in regular and chocolate. I have lots of freeze dried coffee (to avoid the morning grumpies, LOL!) In addition to the #10 cans of Augason Butter, I have it in the pouches. I started buying the pouches when butter prices started to rise. Not using them yet, but every now and then I order one or two. I also have the Augason Farms bread & roll mix. I bought them when they were on sale for $7.95/can a few years ago. Their black bean burger mix is amazing! It's basically powdered beans and spices. So good! I love your videos because you share such good info and your subscribers share addition good info. It's time well spent watching and reading it all. TFS!
Thank you, great ideas for me. I'm glad I got a few cans of whole powdered eggs before they nearly tripled in price. I didn't think about powdered butter. I love my butter, but didn't think about powdered butter. I will have to get that....definitely. Thanks for the suggestion, that didn't occur to me. There were several other things I didn't think of. Your videos are a great help to us! Thank you for all your hard work and preparation for these.
How do you use the blueberry powder? I live in Blueberry Estates and after the large blueberry patch is harvested for sale we can pick as many as we want.
@@augustblue1297 I add mine to oatmeal, muffins, baked oatmeal, plain yogurt. But what I found is I need to sweeten it up a bit by adding Cane Sugar to it in my yogurt. I use both white sugar but am changing over to Cane as it’s better for you by not spiking your glucose levels like white sugar does. But any sugar will do for taste. Go to “The purposeful pantry” channel. Darcy has an incredible list of how to use it. 😀
I applaud all of your choices. I will add that although I have also kept most of my dehydrated vegetables whole, I have purposely dehydrated greens, especially spinach, specifically to add to potato powder/flakes as powder. I also might add broccoli, which dried VERY hard, but powdered would make a nice mix with potatoes and cheese, even to make it into a soup.
Nido is great. Boy, the cost has risen from %16 to $20. Wallie Mart is still on their expiration of 2023. So gonna wait until exp of 2024 comes out. I have plenty now. I used powdered Hoosier Farm Heavy Cream yesterday for chicken pot pie soup. Worked out well with some dehydrated vegetables. So far, I have 27 Auguson Farm cans..
@@AlaskaGranny Today at Walmart, they had a Tomato Chicken flavored powder. It was in the section where I found the large Nido can. I’ll get that next time ! 👍
We love your channel! You provide such helpful information and in a calm, reasonable way. Being prepared provides us with such peace of mind. Thank you!
Don't forget to stockpile Auguson dehydrated fruits. Also, have a variety of oils, pastas and herbs in your stockpile of goodies. Stuff is expensive but I try to buy 1 bulk item per month if I can.
❤ Very great advice. I love the Aguson farms and I reuse containers to store other things. I haven’t tried all of these products but I will. Definitely going to get that mixed cheese one😉. I also bought some gator aide powder in a can. It’s taste great and is so good to have on the when you’ve been sick. Sharing
That's a good mix of Powdered Foods AG, wish we had Auguson Farms in UK. I do have some Powdered Foods in our Pantry though, we have Eggs, Milk, Peanut butter, & Stocks, & Galaxy hot chocolate of course. Mmm.😋🍫 TFS AG, take care & keep busy everyone. ❤🙂🐶
Another great video. I’ve been dehydrating greens and I add them to my oatmeal and eggs etc. thanks for the jello reminder. I will do that this week. Great idea. I’m focusing on long haul stuff at this point.
I've started putting diatomaceous earth in the bottom of good sealed containers and then setting a whole bag of rice in each one. I slit them so you can scoop the rice out as needed, but it doesn't mix with the earth. They say Diatomaceous earth is perfectly safe to ingest, but I've also heard it's 'not' so good for you. This protects from bugs, but still preserves the rice nicely. It's easier for me than using expensive oxygen absorbers which harden quickly and must be replaced. It's mice to see your pretty, cheerful smile here every day. 'God bless you!
Thank you AG! I wish our walmart sold the whole egg powder & butter powder. I have most of the others on your counter. I always enjoy your videos! You & Teddy have a wonderful day!
I dehydrate mushrooms and keep the caps for eating and powder the stems for mushroom powder. I'm going to look into the Bob Mills egg replacer... Thank you AG 😊😊🙏 Kendra
Hi Granny ! Wonderful video and information ! I’ve recently bought Tomato Powder which was a new find. Quite a lot of things you can do with it…. Make sauce, paste, ketchup, flavor other sauces. It was pretty pricey but nice to have on hand. Today bought cases of diced tomatoes, vegetables etc. Also picked up some staples from the church👍. At one point in time, I had a container of PB2 but gave it to my daughter. What was I thinking ! Bought Nido today as well, and they had PB powder but I passed on it today. There’s always next time ! Tfs Granny, love ALL your videos !
I have most of those powdered items in our pantry, and a few boxes of BisQuick as well. That stuff is great for all kinds of recipes! Thanks for the video, AG!! ❤❤
Since you recommended Nido, I went and found 2 stores in my area that carries it. Good stuff, delicious in coffee. We dont drink milk, but cook with it on occasion. Nido is perfect, thanks!
Thank you for your video. Great list Granny. I managed to dehydrate some scrambled eggs but nothing raw, ... yet. I'm really going to try to keep my small flock of hens going for fresh eggs and barring all Foxes, Raccoons, Hawks, and Bird-Flu, ... I just might be able to do it too. I'll soon have to let the rooster out with the hens again to make sure my eggs are fertile for hatching and I can only pray that my little red hen goes broody again because the incubator doesn't get the results that natural hatching does. I'm lucky to get a 50% hatch rate with the incubator. I'm blessed to have a Bulk Barn Store that sells bulk Mac and Cheese Mix made with real cheese so I've been packing that stuff away in Mason jars with an oxygen absorber. Then there was the time I found numerous plastic jars of grated Parmesan cheese in the dumpster. I was told that it didn't go bad and so far it's true. I just opened a jar that must be two years past its BBD and you'd never know it. I only wish we had a local supply of that butter powder. I don't do much buying over the internet. So I've made Ghee and have plans to can some butter without clarifying it. Have a great one Granny!
My local grocer sells Crystal Farms parm. in a smaller container, and in my opinion it tastes better than the Kraft brand. I store a few in my freezer, if the power goes out for a long time they will still be good while sealed, and when I open them, they will stay fresh long enough until I use up the small amount.
The Aug' powdered whole egg is superb. I use it all the time. I also love the Red Cow Whole Milk. I leave both in the freezer and take some out as I need it. hat way I get to use it regularly and gradually turnover my extra stash. Important to rotate along the way since the expiration date is relatively short for emergency food.
I have all of these powdered foods in my prepper pantry. I love Augason Farms. Even when prices were all over the place, theirs stayed even except for the things that there were shortages of.
I bought Augeson Farms Orange Drink. It has vitamin C added. And it can be used to make jello. Just add Knox gelatin packets to each measured portion of drink mix.
I am very happy I stopped by your video. I can no longer get to the store and am missing many foods the milk and eggs being two. This is so helpful. I used to buy many of the packets you show here, but used up my stock pile over a year ago. Now I have new hope for something better to eat them ramen noodles! Thank you for doing this video! 🕊💞
I also grind my own powdered fruits and veges for making smoothies. Dairy like sour cream, cream cheese, yoghurt can all be purchased in powdered form, I make my own with a freeze drier. Tomatoe powder I purchase too much work to make on my own it is worth the cost in a number 10 can. I also use almost everything you shared except butter powder I prefer to have canned ghee.
We stock Swiss Miss Hot Cocoa & use it regularly, especially in the winter. It is so easy to make, mix/hot water & we also add a little milk. COSTCO runs the 50 count box on sale regularly (approx. $6.00). The shelf life is good too, approx. 2 years. We store at least 3 unopened boxes at all times. We don't want to get caught without hot cocoa!
Tomato powder is so easy to turn into spaghetti sauce, chili, or soup. The possibilities are endless AND it stores longer and lighter than tomato paste. Yum!
In Australia we have Kakadu Plum Powder. Kakadu Plum has been used by Aboriginals for thousands of years (their culture is 65,000 years old btw) to treat headaches and infections. It has antibacterial and anticancer properties. But the reason I use it in shakes and on salads is that it has 100% more vitamin C than oranges. Kakadu Plum has the world's highest level of natural vitamin C. Tang has synthetic vitamin C and yellow colouring that has been linked to cancer. Even one of your astronauts said it is terrible for you. I mix Kadadu plum powder with my collagen for super amazing skin. You can't absorb collagen without vitamin C. Kakadu plum powder is expensive but you only need a teaspoon to get the benefits. I get mine from Purewellness bulk supply in Queensland Australia, they are the cheapest I've found. Also I store broccoli sprout seeds, which isn't a powder but makes up nutrient dense sprouts in 7 days that are excellent for breast and other cancers😊😊
Don't forget mustard powder. Siracha powder, hot pepper flakes. Celery salt. I just bought bagel topping. Mustard seeds, poppy seeds, sesame seeds. Sprinkle on your home made rolls. I have farina (cream of wheat) I make a mix and use for breading and you can skip the egg or paint with mayo first.
Recipe for batter for eggplant fries 1 cup each flour, parmesan.n cheese, farina 1 Tbsp each, garlic pwd,onion pwd, smoked paprika, basil dried 2 teaspoons Tony cachere Shake - mix well, put in plastic bag Soak eggplant inch thick fries in cold water first, it keeps them from turning brown & batter sticks better Don't have to peel but you can. Put in oven. She didn't say how long. Keep left over batter in bag. If it gets gummy, put in a baking dish under broiler and dry out. Save. This was from Homestead Heart. I made the batter and keep in refrig and use it for chicken cutlet, fish fillets, crab cakes. So far so good without an egg wash. Have tried painting the cutlets and fish with mayo first and that worked out ok.
And a lot of the seeds used for seasoning can be planted. I buy bulk dill seeds and I never buy the expensive little seed packets. They grow and are cheaper to buy if you purchase as a seasoning like from Natural Grocers.
Have you ever tried making "parmesan crisps?" You take a plastic margarine container, put a little cooking oil in the bottom. throw in some grated parmesan cheese, pop it in the microwave for about thirty seconds, maybe with some crumbled bacon or even Bacos. Pull it out of the micrwave and dump the contents on some wax paper. Voila! Flavorful Parmesan crisps!
Thanks for sharing this wonderful video. I found the Nido in the grocery store down the block from my house. Great item for me to have in my pantry. I do want to get some other powdered food items in my pantry.
I did a little searching and was able to find a number of organic juice powders that can be used to make drinks, marinade, seasonings, flavoring (baking). I’m going to give some of these a try to save a little money - we like the bottled Ocean Spray and Simply Orange blended brands. Some of the powders I was able to find: Orange, lemon, lime, cranberry, mango, pomegranate, raspberry
@anchorageprepper9008, I totally agree! I pressure can meat in Pint jars with broth. I pour the jar contents through a strainer into a measuring cup to use the broth in the gravy mixes. I make an easy stroganoff recipe using their roast beef gravy mix, powdered sour cream, dehydrated onions, garlic powder, mushrooms, peas, a pint of beef or venison and wide egg noodles. Beef or venison stew is delicious with their gravy and spices with veggies.
Rainy Day foods has combination packs that include six #2.5 cans of dehydrated and powdered foods. They have baking packs, soup packs, vegetable packs, fruit packs, grain packs and dairy packs. They do have #10 cans and sell in bulk also. After getting staples from lds, Rainy Day was our go to. They use flat rate shipping and their prices are fair and there is usually a coupon code if you search usually 10% off. Worth checking out. We haven't ordered in awhile because we have what we need now but the quality is good.
I was so excited to hear about the egg replacer by bobs, red mill! I went and got a few bags as emergency back up two eggs in my baking. I think I may go back and get a bag or two to gift to relatives. Lol. Thank you for teaching us about all these things! Blessings.❤️
Recently saw someone opening cans that were 40-50 years old. None were good even though the cans had not been compromised. Makes me laugh when people say virtually forever. I would be happy if they lasted 20 years. My prepper pantry is Publix. It’s fresh and they have plenty.
Powdered dry nonfat milk is a good backup when your stores of canned evaporated milk start running low. I also like to keep a large stockpile of mashed potatoes along with a variety of gravy mixes, including country, brown, chicken, turkey and pork. Along with grits I have cream of wheat (aka farina), oatmeal (I prefer old fashion) and white rice. Grits can be ground to a flour and used to make white corn tortillas when cornmeal is not available. Rice can also be ground to a powder and used as flour, a thickening agent or a desperate milk substitute when mixed with water.
Hmm. Never thought of grinding grits to make tortillas. I keep unpopped popcorn in 5 gallon bucket and grind my own cornmeal ; THE best cornbread ever!!
I worked on ships for decades,,, powdered foods are better than nothing…. I always made sure to have instant potatoes, powdered eggs,,, Carnation milk…. There should also be some type of Milkshake powder like Ensure to make,,, hot choclate, Tea, etc.
I’m partial t powdered bone broth. Full of protein, you can drink a cup or add it to soups and few or what have you. Thank AG! Right in track as usual.
Remember that powdered foods are great, but the shelf stable property's begin to erode after you open the can. That's the biggest problem with these cans..to big.
Similar to an earlier comment, as soon as you open a can of x powder, put most into canning jars (Ball, etc.) with oxygen absorbers and seal. It’s like having separate containers that last almost as long as the original can. Then you can use from the small amount you’ve left out/open.
I buy one or two cans almost each shopping day. I figure they’re likely to keep getting even more expensive-& I’ll be mighty glad to have them if things get really tough (or my $ becomes worthless?).
@@AlaskaGranny we have 3 different kinds of peanut butter powder🌞but we don't eat it regularly,. I like organic peanut butter with palm oil, a bit of Himalayan salt and 1 gram of sugar for regular consumption. We use the powder in smoothies on the go or in chocolate ice cream
I enjoy all your videos and am so glad you told us about Nido it is wonderful. I just wanted to mention Other powders I have powdered sour cream, Worcestershire and horseradish.
YT channel Rose Red has several videos about powdering foods with great ideas, if you want to do some of your own powdering. Also, Darcy…? Purposeful Pantry?
I have just about everything listed except for peanut butter powder (because of my peanut allergy). The things that stand out as missing from the list are powdered Gatorade, very useful to restore electrolyte imbalance due to heat stroke or fever, and Nesquick (chocolate or strawberry) to make reconstituted powdered milk more palatable to kids. I'm not sure about the shelf life of Ovaltine, a somewhat similar powdered product but isn't it fortified with vitamins? Ice tea and lemonade powders have a decent shelf life as well and they are mostly sugar (which is another item missing from the list). If you're using a Berkey or other high efficiency filter system to purify possibly contaminated city or well water, or even collected rainwater or questionable surface water, having a few bottles of colloidial mineral solution around is a good idea. It restores natural mineral levels without the potential contaminants, and improves the flat taste of some processed water. My only other suggestion is jars of chili and taco seasoning. You might find those very useful if you're ever reduced to hunting for (or more efficiently: trapping) small game.

I couldn't remember where I saw it but I found the websites. It is the pectin that makes jello gel, which the pectin also helps to "gel" the waste.
The sugar in Jello can cause diarrhea.
I use warm jello with my granddaughters for tea party drink
Also...potatoes. Potato flakes for thickening soups, putting in bread, and dozens of other uses.

I love your videos because you share such good info and your subscribers share addition good info. It's time well spent watching and reading it all. TFS!
Thanks for sharing about the Augason Farms pouches. I need to try some of those.
never thought I'd see the day when survival food is cheaper than the Supermarket? thx AG👍💨
I like tomato powder. I can add it to soups, savory breads, tuna/mayo, and other things.
Make pasta sauce with it.
Thank you, great ideas for me. I'm glad I got a few cans of whole powdered eggs before they nearly tripled in price. I didn't think about powdered butter. I love my butter, but didn't think about powdered butter. I will have to get that....definitely. Thanks for the suggestion, that didn't occur to me. There were several other things I didn't think of. Your videos are a great help to us! Thank you for all your hard work and preparation for these.
Yes, the butter is good.
My Walmart often has the butter in a smallish Mylar bag, as well as the #10 can. Keep meaning to open a bag to test it out…
I just finished making raspberries blueberries and strawberry powder. It's so fun to try different things
Sounds great!
How do you use the blueberry powder? I live in Blueberry Estates and after the large blueberry patch is harvested for sale we can pick as many as we want.
@@augustblue1297 I add mine to oatmeal, muffins, baked oatmeal, plain yogurt. But what I found is I need to sweeten it up a bit by adding Cane Sugar to it in my yogurt. I use both white sugar but am changing over to Cane as it’s better for you by not spiking your glucose levels like white sugar does. But any sugar will do for taste. Go to “The purposeful pantry” channel. Darcy has an incredible list of how to use it. 😀
Maybe you could mix it into J-ello.
I applaud all of your choices. I will add that although I have also kept most of my dehydrated vegetables whole, I have purposely dehydrated greens, especially spinach, specifically to add to potato powder/flakes as powder. I also might add broccoli, which dried VERY hard, but powdered would make a nice mix with potatoes and cheese, even to make it into a soup.
Nice suggestions, thanks.
I've been dehydrating a lot this winter but haven't tackled broccoli. Did you boil it to soft or blanch in before dehydrating it?
@@patches1483 I would blanch it, at least.I have mostly dehydrated frozen broccoli, so it is quite soft, but not 'cooked'.
Thank you mam. Your have been Instrumental in me getting my 2 year Pantry. I love and have all of your recommendations! Thank you!
You are so welcome. What a comfort to know you have plenty to take care of your family.
Nido is great. Boy, the cost has risen from %16 to $20. Wallie Mart is still on their expiration of 2023. So gonna wait until exp of 2024 comes out. I have plenty now. I used powdered Hoosier Farm Heavy Cream yesterday for chicken pot pie soup. Worked out well with some dehydrated vegetables. So far, I have 27 Auguson Farm cans..
Chicken pot pie soup is so good!
I love these reminders and ideas. I recently discovered tomato bouillon which is a great addition to soups/stews. I got the huge jar at Sam's.
Interesting. I will look for that.
Thanks for the info. I had no idea there was such a thing but will look for it.
@@AlaskaGranny
Today at Walmart, they had a Tomato Chicken flavored powder. It was in the section where I found the large Nido can. I’ll get that next time ! 👍
The tomato chicken bouillon is great
I use that for my Mexican foods.
Great video, AG!! Hope you’re doing well!! Have almost all in my pantry. Praying for peace for you and your family.
I appreciate the prayers, Nana 911.
We love your channel! You provide such helpful information and in a calm, reasonable way. Being prepared provides us with such peace of mind. Thank you!
Don't forget to stockpile Auguson dehydrated fruits. Also, have a variety of oils, pastas and herbs in your stockpile of goodies. Stuff is expensive but I try to buy 1 bulk item per month if I can.
Goyo makes good pork powder, great with beans, potato soups and casseroles.
I haven't seen that. Thanks, I'll look for it.
Interesting.
❤
Very great advice.
I love the Aguson farms and I reuse containers to store other things. I haven’t tried all of these products but I will. Definitely going to get that mixed cheese one😉.
I also bought some gator aide powder in a can. It’s taste great and is so good to have on the when you’ve been sick.
Sharing
I love your channel and all information I'm going to try them when I go to Wal-Mart thank you so much
I got the mixed cheese, it is awful. No flavor and when I made the cheese sauce as directed it was like school paste.
That's a good mix of Powdered Foods AG, wish we had Auguson Farms in UK.
I do have some Powdered Foods in our Pantry though, we have Eggs, Milk, Peanut butter, & Stocks, & Galaxy hot chocolate of course. Mmm.😋🍫
TFS AG, take care & keep busy everyone. ❤🙂🐶
It sounds like you have a nice variety.
@@AlaskaGranny 👍🤗❤🙂🐶
I just enjoy your down to earth advice AG! Watching you from SW Missouri 🎉🎉🎉
Thanks so much!!
Another great video. I’ve been dehydrating greens and I add them to my oatmeal and eggs etc. thanks for the jello reminder. I will do that this week. Great idea. I’m focusing on long haul stuff at this point.
You are so welcome!
I also have powdered honey, sour cream and buttermilk.
Hi Lisa - where did you buy these powders from? I'm just beginning my prep so I'm a newbie to where to find everything.
I've started putting diatomaceous earth in the bottom of good sealed containers and then setting a whole bag of rice in each one. I slit them so you can scoop the rice out as needed, but it doesn't mix with the earth. They say Diatomaceous earth is perfectly safe to ingest, but I've also heard it's 'not' so good for you. This protects from bugs, but still preserves the rice nicely. It's easier for me than using expensive oxygen absorbers which harden quickly and must be replaced. It's mice to see your pretty, cheerful smile here every day. 'God bless you!
You always share such great information. Thank you. Stay safe.
Thank you AG! I wish our walmart sold the whole egg powder & butter powder. I have most of the others on your counter. I always enjoy your videos! You & Teddy have a wonderful day!
Check walmart online.
I hunted down my Walmart manager and requested Augason Farm Products. Three weeks later I found it in the Sporting Goods Department.
@@susanschneider-baker49 love your comment!
I got mine from WM online
I dehydrate mushrooms and keep the caps for eating and powder the stems for mushroom powder. I'm going to look into the Bob Mills egg replacer... Thank you AG 😊😊🙏 Kendra
Sounds great!
Hi Granny ! Wonderful video and information ! I’ve recently bought Tomato Powder which was a new find. Quite a lot of things you can do with it…. Make sauce, paste, ketchup, flavor other sauces. It was pretty pricey but nice to have on hand. Today bought cases of diced tomatoes, vegetables etc. Also picked up some staples from the church👍. At one point in time, I had a container of PB2 but gave it to my daughter. What was I thinking ! Bought Nido today as well, and they had PB powder but I passed on it today. There’s always next time ! Tfs Granny, love ALL your videos !
Nice ideas, thanks for sharing. Hopefully your daughter used the PB2!
Thanks so much for another great prepper video, AG! Hope you are doing good this new year. You look fabulous! ❤
Thanks so much, TreeAnnie. I appreciate your kind comment.
Nido makes good yogurt! I get yogurt culture packets and use the nido
Nice to know. Where did you find a recipe?
Plz tell us more about how to make the yogurt…
Good tips! I never thought about putting away some cocoa powder.
I have most of those powdered items in our pantry, and a few boxes of BisQuick as well. That stuff is great for all kinds of recipes! Thanks for the video, AG!! ❤❤
I like that too but it has a fat in it so it can go rancid. I vac sealed mine so don’t know how long it will last.
@@1stbadger700 I vaccinate all my seals to eliminate all traces of the ninja virus
Since you recommended Nido, I went and found 2 stores in my area that carries it. Good stuff, delicious in coffee. We dont drink milk, but cook with it on occasion. Nido is perfect, thanks!
Sounds great!
I just put a batch of yogurt in the instant pot. I'm trying it with nido because I've read that it works and I wanted to test it out.
I use it in my coffee 👍
Thanks Granny. Much love and Blessings ❤️🙏🏽
The egg replacer sounds like a good idea …I’ll look for it…thanks
Thank you for your video.
Great list Granny.
I managed to dehydrate some scrambled eggs but nothing raw, ... yet.
I'm really going to try to keep my small flock of hens going for fresh eggs and barring all Foxes, Raccoons, Hawks, and Bird-Flu, ... I just might be able to do it too.
I'll soon have to let the rooster out with the hens again to make sure my eggs are fertile for hatching and I can only pray that my little red hen goes broody again because the incubator doesn't get the results that natural hatching does. I'm lucky to get a 50% hatch rate with the incubator.
I'm blessed to have a Bulk Barn Store that sells bulk Mac and Cheese Mix made with real cheese so I've been packing that stuff away in Mason jars with an oxygen absorber.
Then there was the time I found numerous plastic jars of grated Parmesan cheese in the dumpster. I was told that it didn't go bad and so far it's true. I just opened a jar that must be two years past its BBD and you'd never know it.
I only wish we had a local supply of that butter powder. I don't do much buying over the internet. So I've made Ghee and have plans to can some butter without clarifying it.
Have a great one Granny!
My local grocer sells Crystal Farms parm. in a smaller container, and in my opinion it tastes better than the Kraft brand. I store a few in my freezer, if the power goes out for a long time they will still be good while sealed, and when I open them, they will stay fresh long enough until I use up the small amount.
The Aug' powdered whole egg is superb. I use it all the time. I also love the Red Cow Whole Milk. I leave both in the freezer and take some out as I need it. hat way I get to use it regularly and gradually turnover my extra stash. Important to rotate along the way since the expiration date is relatively short for emergency food.
Great tip!
I have all of these powdered foods in my prepper pantry. I love Augason Farms. Even when prices were all over the place, theirs stayed even except for the things that there were shortages of.
Don't toss your parmesan cheese lids when the jar is empty. They will fit on your canning jars.
Here is a link to a video I made about that, mine didn't fit! czcams.com/video/TqYDdbCpCGo/video.html
I bought Augeson Farms Orange Drink. It has vitamin C added. And it can be used to make jello. Just add Knox gelatin packets to each measured portion of drink mix.
Thanks for the tips!
What a brilliant idea! ❤
I was buying thoes powdered eggs for like $30/can in the "before-times". Then they went to $115. Then $65. Now $95. Great investment!
Love your tips and meal suggestions.
Glad you like them!
A very nice compilation of products to store! Well thought out.
Glad you think so!
I am very happy I stopped by your video. I can no longer get to the store and am missing many foods the milk and eggs being two. This is so helpful. I used to buy many of the packets you show here, but used up my stock pile over a year ago. Now I have new hope for something better to eat them ramen noodles!
Thank you for doing this video! 🕊💞
You are so welcome. We can do this!
I also grind my own powdered fruits and veges for making smoothies. Dairy like sour cream, cream cheese, yoghurt can all be purchased in powdered form, I make my own with a freeze drier. Tomatoe powder I purchase too much work to make on my own it is worth the cost in a number 10 can. I also use almost everything you shared except butter powder I prefer to have canned ghee.
Thanks for sharing!!
We stock Swiss Miss Hot Cocoa & use it regularly, especially in the winter. It is so easy to make, mix/hot water & we also add a little milk. COSTCO runs the 50 count box on sale regularly (approx. $6.00). The shelf life is good too, approx. 2 years. We store at least 3 unopened boxes at all times. We don't want to get caught without hot cocoa!
Wow, thanks for the tip to store Jello. I missed that one. Really easy to store for a very long time.
You are so welcome!
Tomato powder is so easy to turn into spaghetti sauce, chili, or soup. The possibilities are endless AND it stores longer and lighter than tomato paste. Yum!
thank you, you gave me a few ideas .... and I didn't know about peanut butter and chocolate powder.
Glad it was helpful!
In Australia we have Kakadu Plum Powder. Kakadu Plum has been used by Aboriginals for thousands of years (their culture is 65,000 years old btw) to treat headaches and infections. It has antibacterial and anticancer properties. But the reason I use it in shakes and on salads is that it has 100% more vitamin C than oranges. Kakadu Plum has the world's highest level of natural vitamin C. Tang has synthetic vitamin C and yellow colouring that has been linked to cancer. Even one of your astronauts said it is terrible for you. I mix Kadadu plum powder with my collagen for super amazing skin. You can't absorb collagen without vitamin C. Kakadu plum powder is expensive but you only need a teaspoon to get the benefits. I get mine from Purewellness bulk supply in Queensland Australia, they are the cheapest I've found. Also I store broccoli sprout seeds, which isn't a powder but makes up nutrient dense sprouts in 7 days that are excellent for breast and other cancers😊😊
Great ideas!
These are wonderful! We definitely have these in our stocks
A truly useful video full of great tips. Thanks for sharing.
Glad it was helpful!
Don't forget mustard powder. Siracha powder, hot pepper flakes.
Celery salt. I just bought bagel topping. Mustard seeds, poppy seeds, sesame seeds. Sprinkle on your home made rolls. I have farina (cream of wheat) I make a mix and use for breading and you can skip the egg or paint with mayo first.
Thanks for the tips!
Recipe, please 🙏
Recipe for batter for eggplant fries
1 cup each flour, parmesan.n cheese, farina
1 Tbsp each, garlic pwd,onion pwd, smoked paprika, basil dried
2 teaspoons Tony cachere
Shake - mix well, put in plastic bag
Soak eggplant inch thick fries in cold water first, it keeps them from turning brown & batter sticks better
Don't have to peel but you can.
Put in oven. She didn't say how long.
Keep left over batter in bag. If it gets gummy, put in a baking dish under broiler and dry out. Save.
This was from Homestead Heart.
I made the batter and keep in refrig and use it for chicken cutlet, fish fillets, crab cakes. So far so good without an egg wash. Have tried painting the cutlets and fish with mayo first and that worked out ok.
So right
And a lot of the seeds used for seasoning can be planted. I buy bulk dill seeds and I never buy the expensive little seed packets. They grow and are cheaper to buy if you purchase as a seasoning like from Natural Grocers.
I like the dried parmasean cheese. It lasts a long time and gives protein, flavor and fat to recipes.
Have you ever tried making "parmesan crisps?" You take a plastic margarine container, put a little cooking oil in the bottom. throw in some grated parmesan cheese, pop it in the microwave for about thirty seconds, maybe with some crumbled bacon or even Bacos. Pull it out of the micrwave and dump the contents on some wax paper. Voila! Flavorful Parmesan crisps!
You can also find real Parmesan cheese in jars. The good stuff.
Another great video. thank you Alaska Hottie. I have purchased several of the items you listed. 🙂
I got some powdered honey. Pretty excited to try some recipes.
Thanks for sharing this wonderful video. I found the Nido in the grocery store down the block from my house. Great item for me to have in my pantry. I do want to get some other powdered food items in my pantry.
Glad you are adding to your stockpile.
Stock up on Tang drink mix! It has lots of vitamin C and calcium.
Thank you SO much! I have LOVED your channel for quite some time! Getting ready for those Spam recipes you have !
I did a little searching and was able to find a number of organic juice powders that can be used to make drinks, marinade, seasonings, flavoring (baking). I’m going to give some of these a try to save a little money - we like the bottled Ocean Spray and Simply Orange blended brands. Some of the powders I was able to find: Orange, lemon, lime, cranberry, mango, pomegranate, raspberry
I have some of everything you showed an that is the best butter an eggs
Love the Pioneer Gravy mixes. Great to have on the side 🤤
We use the Knorr Chicken Bouillon. BONUS: It can be found at Costco now 👍
Nice!
@anchorageprepper9008, I totally agree! I pressure can meat in Pint jars with broth. I pour the jar contents through a strainer into a measuring cup to use the broth in the gravy mixes. I make an easy stroganoff recipe using their roast beef gravy mix, powdered sour cream, dehydrated onions, garlic powder, mushrooms, peas, a pint of beef or venison and wide egg noodles. Beef or venison stew is delicious with their gravy and spices with veggies.
@@nancyst.john-smith3891 Nice! That sounds wonderful 🤤
@@nancyst.john-smith3891 that recipe sounds marvelous!
Rainy Day foods has combination packs that include six #2.5 cans of dehydrated and powdered foods. They have baking packs, soup packs, vegetable packs, fruit packs, grain packs and dairy packs. They do have #10 cans and sell in bulk also. After getting staples from lds, Rainy Day was our go to. They use flat rate shipping and their prices are fair and there is usually a coupon code if you search usually 10% off. Worth checking out. We haven't ordered in awhile because we have what we need now but the quality is good.
I have never heard of that company. I will check it out. Hopefully, they ship to Alaska, so many don't.
I was so excited to hear about the egg replacer by bobs, red mill! I went and got a few bags as emergency back up two eggs in my baking. I think I may go back and get a bag or two to gift to relatives. Lol. Thank you for teaching us about all these things! Blessings.❤️
I put all powder foods in the refrigerator for a couple of days, and then vacuum seal them. thanks.
Thanks for this info on powdered foods and how to store them to last. Interesting for sure. Thank you AG :)
Recently saw someone opening cans that were 40-50 years old. None were good even though the cans had not been compromised. Makes me laugh when people say virtually forever. I would be happy if they lasted 20 years. My prepper pantry is Publix. It’s fresh and they have plenty.
Powdered dry nonfat milk is a good backup when your stores of canned evaporated milk start running low. I also like to keep a large stockpile of mashed potatoes along with a variety of gravy mixes, including country, brown, chicken, turkey and pork. Along with grits I have cream of wheat (aka farina), oatmeal (I prefer old fashion) and white rice. Grits can be ground to a flour and used to make white corn tortillas when cornmeal is not available. Rice can also be ground to a powder and used as flour, a thickening agent or a desperate milk substitute when mixed with water.
Hmm. Never thought of grinding grits to make tortillas. I keep unpopped popcorn in 5 gallon bucket and grind my own cornmeal ; THE best cornbread ever!!
I worked on ships for decades,,, powdered foods are better than nothing…. I always made sure to have instant potatoes, powdered eggs,,, Carnation milk…. There should also be some type of Milkshake powder like Ensure to make,,, hot choclate, Tea, etc.
Great 👍 thanks for sharing God bless you ❤️
Thanks for sharing blessings.
Thank you!!!
Oh ya ! Reconstitute some dried fruit n add it to jello. I can just imagine the moral boost 👍
Great idea!
I’m partial t powdered bone broth. Full of protein, you can drink a cup or add it to soups and few or what have you. Thank AG! Right in track as usual.
Sounds great!
Great items! We have a little of each of them! Thank you for sharing!
Remember that powdered foods are great, but the shelf stable property's begin to erode after you open the can. That's the biggest problem with these cans..to big.
Similar to an earlier comment, as soon as you open a can of x powder, put most into canning jars (Ball, etc.) with oxygen absorbers and seal. It’s like having separate containers that last almost as long as the original can. Then you can use from the small amount you’ve left out/open.
Enjoyed your video Have you seen how much whole egg powder and cheese powder is now wow!
I buy one or two cans almost each shopping day. I figure they’re likely to keep getting even more expensive-& I’ll be mighty glad to have them if things get really tough (or my $ becomes worthless?).
Peanut butter goes rancid quickly in Florida. We cannot keep oils long and in a grid down they would rot quickly
Try peanut butter powder.
@@AlaskaGranny we have 3 different kinds of peanut butter powder🌞but we don't eat it regularly,. I like organic peanut butter with palm oil, a bit of Himalayan salt and 1 gram of sugar for regular consumption. We use the powder in smoothies on the go or in chocolate ice cream
I'm so appreciative of this content. It's not something that I've seen on other channels.
I am glad you enjoy my videos.
I'm not sure how long it stores for, but collagen powder is a good source of protein.
Very important to use "warm" water when mixing it in to these powders. Cold water doesn't work.
I have alot of those too
I am a fan of powdered peanut butter multi purpose I also use it in homemade dog treats.
I enjoy all your videos and am so glad you told us about Nido it is wonderful. I just wanted to mention
Other powders I have powdered sour cream, Worcestershire and horseradish.
Thanks for sharing!!
I dehydrate and powder jalapeños they are great in soup.
I honestly hasn't thought of that. Thanks
Interesting!
Never thought of dehydratin vegs then grinding into powder. Thanks
YT channel Rose Red has several videos about powdering foods with great ideas, if you want to do some of your own powdering. Also, Darcy…? Purposeful Pantry?
I stock powdered bone broth. Add water for soup or add it to something else as flavoring.
I have just about everything listed except for peanut butter powder (because of my peanut allergy). The things that stand out as missing from the list are powdered Gatorade, very useful to restore electrolyte imbalance due to heat stroke or fever, and Nesquick (chocolate or strawberry) to make reconstituted powdered milk more palatable to kids. I'm not sure about the shelf life of Ovaltine, a somewhat similar powdered product but isn't it fortified with vitamins? Ice tea and lemonade powders have a decent shelf life as well and they are mostly sugar (which is another item missing from the list).
If you're using a Berkey or other high efficiency filter system to purify possibly contaminated city or well water, or even collected rainwater or questionable surface water, having a few bottles of colloidial mineral solution around is a good idea. It restores natural mineral levels without the potential contaminants, and improves the flat taste of some processed water.
My only other suggestion is jars of chili and taco seasoning. You might find those very useful if you're ever reduced to hunting for (or more efficiently: trapping) small game.
