      Yes it is wonderful to be able to powder the fd foods. I find it much easier on the device used to make powders with than dehydrating. However I do love dehydrating as well. Thanks for the comment. Happy freeze drying.

      Amazing, I have several Meyer lemons but I have seen them bloom but really late last summer and it was getting cold here then.

      Hello sweet Michelle. No you didn’t miss any videos. It’s been a long while I got logged out of my channel and it was a real pain to get back in. G didn’t make it easy at all. I had a few videos made up but I just got logged back in last Friday. We have had some issues going on with life. We started the potatoes last week the 375lbs is a lot when you have to process them. Haha. It’s going well. Yes sorbet would be a great idea. Hope you are doing well and staying healthy and happy. Today I am making candles and processing more potatoes. We have one crate left. All the best to you my dear friend. Sending you lots of love and positivity. Thank you Michelle.

    ok just getting caught up I am in the collab too and just subscribed. I love the idea of this my question is I know I have FD lemons that were not meyer and they work fine I left them as the slices but after a bit they seem to make my water taste funny. So my question is do you find this tastes funny as I would like to get away from the pack drinks all together and I would like to do this. Please advise! How do you get HR to send you anything for free?

    Loved this Video! Lemons AND bonus of Potatoes! Did you pre-cook the potatoes? Good tip on removing the lemon seeds, using gloves, and how you can actually layer with parchment! I think people will appreciate how you show them ENTIRE process, time involved, packaging, benefits, uses and price comparison. Thank you so much for participating in #freezedriedfebruaty23

      Hello Angela, yes I did Blanche the potatoes. They are pretty thick a little over the 1/4 inch thick. So we washed them, sliced and blanched for five minutes( not waiting for a boil) once the water was boiling we dipped in the potatoes and timed. They worked great that way and on my IG I posted about the potatoes. I fried some up and oh my goodness…… yummy! Thank you for having me. I greatly appreciate it so very much. I love doing all this stuff and I’m so grateful for you to have put this challenge together. You are a blessing!!! All the best and Happy Freeze Drying. 🙌🏻🍋

    Howdy! Love lemons so this is catching my attention. I suppose you can freeze dry everything! Lol that would be my husband making fun of me, I am clumsy! That is a good thing to dry extra food. Oh now that looks good. I do smoothies. So you can do a double layer in a tay? It looks so cold there. My daughter would love your cup! I am not healthy and holistic. I can’t wait to get a freeze dryer. I make homemade made soap, with lemon and lavender. Lemons are good for your kidneys. Thank you for sharing. We do a lot of lemons on the farm and I even grow lemons in our greenhouse. I love them. Have a blessed day. Wendy🙏🏻🌎🇺🇸

      Hello Wendy, your so lucky to have lemons in your greenhouse. They are so wonderful. Your message made me smile. Thank you. Maybe you can be one of the winners for this week’s prizes. Here’s hoping 🤞🏼 sending love and peace. Do you have a dehydrator you could dehydrate the lemons on 115 degrees Fahrenheit that way it takes longer but they don’t turn brown and are still beautiful in your glass jars. All the best!

    I love this. I am new. I just happened to find Black’s Tropical Homestead talking about the freeze dryer collaboration. I’ve been interested in freeze drying for a while. But really don’t know much about it. I have that same wide open freezer! It is very helpful ! It seems like the powdered, freeze dried Meyer lemons, used in water is a win win. Lemon purported to help with weight loss… sign me up! No need to add a sweetener… awesome.

      Hi Susan, yes you absolutely correct. I’m glad to hear that you are back into food preservation. Freeze drying has been a wonderful experience and investment for our food preservation and future. There are times in the summer when I say omg i could use two Freeze Dryers. We have four dehydrators and at times I have had all of them working. Thanks for watching and maybe you can be the winner from Harvest Right. Here’s hoping 🤞🏼 all the best. Happy Food Preservation.

That was so amazing how it became powder so quick, I would probably use some lemon powder in scent pkgs. I love lemon water drink it daily for health reasons. Thanks for a great video !

    So do you prefer freeze drying or canning? I see your canner behind you. I have a canner, but afraid to use it. I think I would absolutely love freeze drying, and the options seem to be limitless!!😊

    • @dawngallop
      @dawngallop  Рік тому

      Hello Donna actually that’s a great question. They are so different from each other I have been canning for about 40 years and only freeze drying since July 2020. Freeze drying definitely is a amazing process and the food stays good for such a very long time. 25-30 years and it is very easy. There are so many great videos out there in UA-cam land too plus so many amazing videos on canning as well. My husband always says “go to the university” he is meaning UA-cam. You can do it!!!! Thanks so much and all the best to you.

    • @dawngallop
      @dawngallop  Рік тому

      Hello DJ the dehydrated ones the trick is to slowly dehydrate them and I usually use 115 degrees to 119 degrees Fahrenheit. The skins are much harder than freeze dried ones. The freeze drying lemons are much easier and less hard to grind up. You are so right!!! Thanks for your comment and for watching. Happy Freeze Drying🍋

      Hello Bev, I hope you can find the Meyer lemons they are so delicious. I do think the regular lemons would give a much more flavorful acidity to the powder. Our Costco is over two hours away so we don’t go much. I couldn’t find them at Walmart. I hope I don’t miss the window to do more. All the best and happy freeze drying. Thanks for the comment I greatly appreciate you.
