    Thank you for another lovely post. Very enlightening as you have used differently to how I thought you would which is super. More ideas brimming as a result. I think this is going to be particularly useful for myself and OH at home and also when he goes fishing. As a result of your Rumtopf post, (I make this every year in any event) I have bought yet another Rumtopf pot that was in our local charity shop for £2.50. Could not leave it at that price. Always interested in any kind of preserving techniques and recipes you have to share. Keep up the good work the pair of you. Take care Tricia

      Thank you so much Tricia. I'm really flattered.
      If you would like another application we add the powder to the breadmaking ingredients to make a lovely tomato loaf. It's wonderful with cheese.

    Had a go at this after Hugh's video, did the same as you Fiona but in our mickey mouse dehydrator...we aspire to an Excaliber one day :-)
    If the powder is not completely dry it will clump together, so we spread it out on parchment paper in a low oven for an hour or so to finish drying it.
    Great vid' Fiona, thanks for sharing it with us. ATB Rob.

    Thanks for this Fiona & Hugh, I've been drying tomato skins since watching the earlier video. Great to see the product rehydrated and used. It will soon replace tomato puree i feel.
    You have mentioned specific ratios for rehydration of this sacrosanct or a guide?

    • @EnglishCountryLife
      @EnglishCountryLife  4 роки тому +1

      Just a guide. It's different depending on the type of tomato and what you want to use it for. The best advice would be start with a little and gradually add more until you are happy. The proportions I talk about are what we've found work for us.

    I have made many vegetables into powder, even beef jerky and even left over cooked out bones into bone meal for the garden. My method of grinding into powder is a corn grinder. It makes a very good flour and actually can be used to grind herbs and roots. Thanks for your videos. I enjoy them very much. Joe in PA, across the puddle

      @@EnglishCountryLife I have a little video on my corn grinder on my channel. Mine is quite rare. It was made in South America someplace. The same design is a Chinese knockoff. You may see them on ebay. All these heavy duty kitchen type appliances were made by the thousands by Landers Frary & Clark in the states back in the 18th and early 19th century and they are still available, but at a much higher price than the knockoffs.

      I think it's better too. I think it's just one if those methods that seems like it should be obvious but it's really not and even if it were, it's not always obvious how to use it.

      English Country Life Don’t apologise, I will be here. Following along again next year, so it’s not a problem. I am new to growing food this year and during the lockdown I have been preparing my new allotment, ready for next season. Prior to this I was unable to keep a cactus alive 😂. But with your help, I am learning. And I am getting into food preservation too, and hoping that I can successfully grow enough food that will feed my family into the winter...... Well that’s my plan 😂. Let’s hope it works 🤞🏼😃 x

    This is a wonderful idea. We played around with it last season but didn’t have a dehydrator so it was a tedious process with the oven. Now that we have a dehydrator I’m keen to try this. Such a great space saver and a better idea than tomato paste. Thank you! Any ideas for green tomatoes other than chutney? Love your videos. 😊
