Freeze drying inspiration! Welcome to a big lots of work to answer many of the questions o had about how, what, how much, with …
Thanks for taking the time to do this. A smaller model would be ideal for us in Florida since our space is limited. And if we are ever able to get back out on the road and travel pending on Larry’s physical mobility, we can take this and do meals to save money. What is not good to freeze dry? Can zip lock bags be used? Have to remember to jar spaghetti. I thought of a food hydrator like the one in movie Back to the Future II.🤣….I’d like to see in a video the family eating those meals.
You did hit the mail on the head with your observation re: the look of finished freeze dried food. I have seen others use their freezers and have often wondered what meals looked like. I assume you reconstitute with boiling water?
You have such a good amount put aside. Hoping you have a substantial moose harvest.
You have given me some good meal ideas as the weather is changing here!! (The electric blanket has been humming for close to a week!)
Until our next visit…❤ Momma G
The food looks good., I am hungry now 9-30-2023❤
Very interesting lots of information. But what is the cost of a freeze dried machine. Love watching your videos.
This was amazing to see all of the steps and very informative. Just one wish though, if the cost breakdown could have been a bit more inclusive. I realize you aren't going to account for every single spice, electricity the cost of the freeze drier, etc (although manufacturers have to take all of that into consideration). However, some amount for that 'overhead' and the meat (many of us need to buy, not hunt), it would get closer to a true cost. Thank you though, very much
Great information about vacuum sealing. Also, your vacuum seal bags are not 25 years safe like the mylar harbors right bags are. 😊
Why do I not have those lids for the freeze dry trays! Love you lady. Great video!!
Hello from Kansas! Can you share your Wonton Soup recipe please? I love your videos. Take care and I hope you get a moose soon.
Love this video!
Wow, well done you. I also use freeze dry veggies in my stews and casseroles – freeze any that's left for meals later in the month.
Such a great video Jessica. Ty for being so thorough. I'm learning so much. I'm so proud you are preparing for winter. Please continue to prepare for your family. Such a comfort and security.
Hi Jessica and sweet family! Such an economical way to feed your family healthy homemade meals for those adventures that you and your family enjoy.
If my family was still here I would consider a freeze dryer, but just me I dehydrate and can to use for the convenience and preserve my food.
I hope you and your precious family have a blessed weekend!
Love it! God bless.👍
Made me so hungry lol. Looks so yummy. Great job my friend!!!
School Report is the name of the guy who weighs everything when he is freeze drying. His YouTube channel name doesn't make you think he does freeze drying. I've watched him some and have learned somethings from him when i was new at this. I don't weigh anything, but it still turns out just fine. I like how organized he is, even when he shows how he organizes his FD pantry. Not how i do mine, but his is truly organized. Anyway, your doing great with your freeze drying.
This was a great video re meal prepping and freeze drying! We’re just 2 retired folks not planning any hikes or trips where we’d need the lightweight meals. But, I valued seeing the steps from start to packaging up the meals. It’s wise not to plan to put everything in your freezer bc eventually you’d run out of room and you run the risk …if power goes out…of the food spoiling. Susan
When I think of a freeze dryer it involves " freeze dryer math." Which is the cost of the freeze dryer and how much it costs to run and maintain divided incrementally by the amount of food that might have gone to waste freeze dried over the lifespan of the freeze dryer…so the first trays would be in the negative and eventually over enough time and enough scraps or leftovers or harvest it would become a net gain. 😂 probably why decision paralysis in regards to actually purchasing a freeze dryer is an actual condition.
Thanks for sharing this with us. I loved seeing the whole process. Please share how you liked the food when reconstituted. Have a blessed day!
You have such cool ideas for storing food items
I appreciate this video so much. We are saving to purchase a freeze dryer. Questions.. Do you still add an oxygen absorber to the jars? Can you pour the hot water to reconstitute right into the harvest right bags?
Truly, thanks so much for all of the information. You're changing so many kitchens and blessing so many families! 💛
Thank you you explain so well about everything you are doing.
wish the freeze dryers were so expensive, I would buy one.
Hi Jessica and family
Congratulations on all you're freeze dried meals
Great video
It was SchoolReports you were watching…I've been watching his videos the last couple years about freeze drying. I really appreciate his scientific approach to it.
