Insert food cellar envy.....lol. My fiancé and I are I have been planting veggies and basic stuff for a few years now. Each year the garden gets bigger. This was the first year we ate several meals all from our garden (veggies wise, meats were purchased). We actually got to where we had vegetables to the point of "we need to eat these before they go bad". My stockpile is about 3 jars of Jalapenos lol. But we grew and consumed a lot of our own things this year so I am happy with that. Next year the garden will be going from two 4 foot by 8 foot beds, two just about double that. So each year it has doubled....next year we will for sure need to jar and or dehydrate so as not to waste. She did buy me a dehydrator a few years ago, and I have dabbled with it. But next year it gets the "your up kid!". I have made fruit tars with it and my own backpacking meals. They are awesome. I keep eyeing those pickled eggs...need to try that...."Hooooooney....I am buying chickens!"
Me too! They are so delicious! I have a 10 day canoe trip coming up soon, I'll certainly be snacking on these. We have had this dehydrator running pretty much non stop since we got it. So far I am very pleased with it. Thanks for stopping by. I bet it is starting to get cold out in Alaska. This morning it was 39º when I woke up! Our first dip into the 30's this season!!! Very exciting
@@ItsGoodintheWoods Yeah we have night time temps well below freezing for quite a while now. Just had a fresh snow last night for about 4 inches on the ground now. I am getting the "bug" for hot tent camping now that the season is here.
Look what came up as a top result when i searched dehydrating peaches. 😊 I just wanted to know the temp and how long. But i rewatched the video. In my last comment I said I needed to replace my food dehydrator. I ended up picking up a multipurpose oven, air fryer dehydrator. Since I mostly make small batches. Making jerky now. Got a handful of peaches to do next. Thinking about rehydrating them with bourbon.
@@ItsGoodintheWoods Jerky turned out great. The peaches... I ended up making a simple syrup with them sweetened with maple syrup. Then I saved the cooked peaches to put on yogurt, cereal, and ice cream. The peach cocktails have been excellent and the food excellent.
Thanks for your video, I've been drying fruit for close to 50 years, I really enjoy it. When I first started we put out screens outside and put our fruit on on that. It worked! I still have the cheap dehydrators I find them at yard sales for 5 or $10 can't go wrong with that. And it works!
That is awesome Justin. I’ve thought about it but never have dehydrated anything. That’s what I admire about you, always teaching this old dog some new tricks. Thanks my friend!
I’ve an Air Fryer! I’ve been dehydrating Vegetables and Fruits! I’m definitely learning from you! Fruit is mostly water! Congratulations on the new dehydrator! I’m actually upgrading to Air Fryer/ Dehydrator Oven! Thank-you!
Awesome ! Very cool, as you know we’ve recently purchased a dehydrator, I’ve been dehydrating everything ! Lots of fun, and it makes so much sense. See you in a couple weeks !
The Cabela food dryers are awesome. I got the $500 large unit, and I have been drying lots of fruit mostly. Might try making jerky this fall if my friends get a deer! Thanks for the video, I knew better than starting without watching a few more experienced folks !!!
This is the first one of his I've watched, and when he was slicing the peaches with what looked like a machete, I couldn't help but think of Red Green... 🤣
Justin, can you share a little about your peach trees? What variety, how long until they fruit, etc. We're in MA and my wife wants me to plant some peach trees. I wasn't expecting to be able to grow peaches in New England...
My apologies for the late response. We bought these trees from Stark bro nursery. The peach trees are Reliance (dwarf) and Finger Lakes (dwarf) variety. They have been fantastic producers. But I have my doubts that they are dwarf stock. They got big! That is fine though. I can manage them by pruning. To date these have been our best producing fruit trees. Low maintenance as well. The Japanese beetles leave them alone. But they massacre our apple trees. I hope this helps. Again, sorry for the late response
@@ItsGoodintheWoods No need to apologize and thanks for the reply. The wife will be happy to know about the peach trees. Also, your videos are fantastic. You capture all the good things I remember about growing up in VT and being outside. We bought a canoe recently and with luck we'll see you out there. Best!
Brother, I bought a dehydrator from "Ronco" like 35 yrs ago... El Cheepo! And still works! No temp control... ultra basic! No excuse Not trying it! Good words of wisdom... ya gotta spend the $ on quality if you expect performance!
Another good video. My old cheap dehydrator has two temperature settings.... ON & OFF. ;-) My trays are cracked and broken too, but not as bad as yours. I need to replace. I've been looking at other cheap ones with more temperature control. I don't dehydrate much to justify a more expensive one. Mostly a batch or two of jerky and dried apples per year. I may start doing it more for backpacking food. I liked how you dried the peaches so that they were crisp like chips instead of like fruit leathers. I prefer drying apples to be like chips. (I too add cinnamon to the apples)
I hear ya man. If you are only doing a few things here and there it really isn't worth it to spend the money. Dehydrated apples and cinnamon is the bomb! Real good. I made some pickled eggs today!!!! Video should be out some time in the next year or so LOL ! I bet I have close to 100 pickled eggs now. Should be enough to get me through the winter...maybe
@@ItsGoodintheWoods pickled eggs and jerky is a goto 'steak n eggs' breakfast when camping/fishing and I want a grab and go breakfast. I know that I don't need (or have the room) for a bigger dehydrator with more bells and whistles, but that doesn't keep me from wanting one. LOL
I'm very new to dehydrating. How are the square ones superior to the round? I would have thought the opposite, because the air would flow more evenly around the food. Thanks.
Hi Justin, my hubs decided to dehydrate peaches, oops he forgot the lemon juuce/citric acid part🙄 oh boy hes not gonna be happy, hope they are still edible
They will still be edible. They may turn out a bit darker, but they will be fine. Some people don't even bother with the juice. If they are lacking flavor or visual appeal, rehydrate them and mix them with something....like a peach salsa or something of the sort.
@@ItsGoodintheWoods yes, VERY relieved, since we didn't know if the peaches that came from an orchard may have been sprayed we soaked them in vinegar and water for a half hour then rinsed them well so the skins could stay on, I never toss the skins when I can I dehydrate them and turn them into peach powder for on ice cream and in oatmeal so I clean the skins WELL!
@@garrycollins3415 I waited too long on the apples I got and their now in pretty much only apple butter range... I thought of making apple sauce and then turning that into fruit leather, but don't have a recipe. Do you have one? Thanks.

🎵 Movin to the country gonna eat me alot of peaches🎵 is all I hear after this great video !
I really thought about busting out that guitar riff for this video......lol I should have done it
Great info. Great attitude. THANK YOU! 🙂
Thank you very much
Bacon conversion is funny. I like peach cobbler. I need one of those dehydrators.
You should get one man! It's worth it.

I dehydrate a lot of my greens and herbs on a rigged up screen! It does work. I would like to make a nice big screen drying system someday

They are delicious. Like eating candy. No joke.

Thank you Pete! Dehydrating food is awesome! I'm really getting into it now
Been thinking about this for awhile now. I think you just convinced me.
You should do it!
Nice ideas loved the cinnamon idea, I am big in cinnamon in coffee, porridge and other 😉 food
The cinnamon is an excellent addition to these peaches. These things are delicious! Thanks for watching

That's a ton of work man! I REALLY need to be more industrious. Your peaches look delicious bud!
I am starting to slow down in my ever advancing age ..........
Peaches! Nothing worse than seeing fruit go to waste and the Cabelas looks like the answer. Peachy Pigs how adorable!!
Those pigs are awesome! I figure we dehydrated about 10 lbs of peaches this year! Probably canned close to 30! A good year for the peaches
Your videos are always fun and very enjoyable, and I'm really holding back the beaver jokes.

That's quite the weight reduction. 👍
I had guessed the result to be 12 oz.......I was wrong. The results surprised me. I even reset my scale and weighed them again.
never did fruit just deer and beef jerky I had mine so long not sure what is cost but it still does the job
We dehydrate all kinds of stuff around here
Square dehydrators are superior to round. We just bought ours, picked peaches today, dehydrating tomorrow.
How did they turn out?

I think it's time for a new one LOL
My wife just got a ninja foodie and I’ve been wanting to use dehydrate portion in it.
Do it !
Is it any difference in dehydrating firm peaches vs overripe and than the taste. First time trying to do it by my self
Ripe peaches seem to work the best. They are easy to work with, and I believe they taste better. More sugars. Over ripe is a pain to work with. They get mushy
@@ItsGoodintheWoods Hmm... I have some overripe ones... Will overripe peaches work for fruit leather?
@@kerryaggen6346 that is good idea! I would try
We got an Excalibur
Solid
I've read that dehydrated fruit is better for people with diabetes because the sugar from the fruit is absorbed into the blood stream slower.
That is interesting. I am going to look that up. Thank you for sharing that information
I wouldn't think the fruit being dehydrated would affect the sugar content. It's probably more that the dehydrating concentrates the flavor, so then you don't need to add sugar, or as much sugar, to get the same flavor intensity. With less sugar, less effect on your blood sugar.
