@katieyungen1647 Год назад

I'm genuinely curious, are the peaches organic that you use for the peel and seed jelly? I'm always curious about the sprays. I mean I know that any spray that goes on the outside of the peach also goes inside it, but it seems like the peels would have a higher concentration? I don't know, I'd really like to know.

One of my favorite things to eat in the summer when I was young was to pour a quart of peaches or apricots (my favorite) in a blender with ice and have "smoothies." (Were smoothies a thing in the 70's?) My mom didn't use heavy syrup but it was sweetened. So cool and refreshing. We would process peaches at home or apricots at my grandma's with all the aunts and cousins that lived nearby. My grandma would also make fruit leather, roll it up tightly, and then cut it into bite sized pieces. I would sneak in the storage room and eat them. Good memories.

@dlsdyer9071 Год назад

We lived in a desert region. My mom used to blend up our nectarines, spread it out on waxed paper on a cookie sheet. She then set it in our car which was parked out on the street with the windows cracked about an inch. It was the best fruit leather! She dried grapes/raisins the same way.

If the peaches are not overly ripe you can use a clean pair of needle nose pliers to reach in from the stem end to pull the pit. Then use a sharp apple slicer to reduce the work load and expedite preparation.

@AlecMuller Год назад

I think Harvest Right has simplified the user interface a bit for their software. Our (large) freeze dryer arrived in March, and it doesn't ask us whether the food is frozen or not. It does tell you to wait 15 minutes before loading food, so maybe they figured out how to get it down to temp fast enough to prevent the food from thawing. We love this machine.

@jaquipatterson6181 Год назад

We also got a large freeze dryer in February. We just did 2 - half bushels of peaches in our freeze dryer about 3 weeks apart. I did not leave the skins on them because I don't like skins. They turned out beautifully! We love our machine and have gotten a lot of use out of it with assorted food items. Our home peach trees won't be ready to harvest for at least another 3 weeks, and I am sure we will freeze dry more peaches when they are ready. They are delicious snacks!

@emmengel Год назад

You're partially right, individual freezing of slices is part of flash freezing. We're flash freezing is different from just freezing something, is in the temperature, flash freezing happens when you use a freezing source lower than -100. For instance you pick up blocks of dry ice, you put them in the bottom of a cooler then you put your trays on a rack above the dry ice seal the lid of the cooler and just use a a hand-powered vacuum pump to pull off a little bit of a vacuum. Leave it for about 20 to 30 minutes. And your food your food will be frozen. That's flash freezing.

Vacuum sealing the jars and the bags would help with excluding moist air. Without doing a scientific test, I would think that the oxygen absorbers would not be necessary if the containers are vacuumed. I'm always trying to find ways to do things without needing to purchase items each year and I try to stay away from plastic if possible. Thus, I'm a fan of glass jars and stainless steel jar lids. I have my peaches hanging on the trees, but like your situation, they sure could use more rain. All the best.

@connieroland2026 Год назад

Changing to updated software is easy. I have a few recommendations that made things go smoothly for us . We Label bags before filling so its easier to write and always use oxygen absorbers. If using a jar I would use oxygen absorber and vacuum seal the jar. Freeze drying is a great way to preserve eggs and parchment paper on freeze drying trays for any sweet food is always a plus, much less sticking and easier cleanup. Mylar bags come in many different thicknesses so adjust heat seal time, so that bag isn't sticking to heat bar. Although the oil less pump is more expensive, it's a lot less maintenance and no keeping track of when to change that oil. keeping unit clean is a must, this includes the dust buildup on pump, drain line, interior and door is freeze dryer, top and underside of the tray holding unit. Just wanted to share those things. You guys are awesome and your video gave some good tips for beginners to put into use. Keep the videos coming. Okra is also a great freeze dried snack. Lol
