I started watching your videos when I was 17-18 and now I'm 20 getting deeper into the industry. Making it past the mind games people played and there's finally some goals I have to bring to the table. Thank you for encouraging me!
That's so great to hear, it's very rewarding hearing my recipes can inspire others. You know I've never done it professionally. I do not work in a professional kitchen, cooking and creating recipes is a hobby of mine, something I've always loved. The creating process and experimenting its what excites me the most about cooking. The best of luck in your career! Cheers!

Qual a sua ideia congelando-as? Eu nunca congelei. Geralmente com umidade elas amolecem, porem se for a vaco eu agredito que poderiam ser congeladas. Como sao fininhas como papel sao muito frageis.
The beets don't have much of a starch to them, so they will not hold a shape as well if pureed, but with the addition of some starch to the puree it may work.
The issue with baking paper is that it crinkles with the humidity so the chips do not turn out nice and flat. If you don’t mind the chips curling up as they dehydrate than the paper is ok.
I tried this and my beets curled up a lot and weren't as pretty as yours. Granted, the beets I used were a little on the small-side, but I'm wondering what I could've done differently to keep them flat and pretty.
It does really depend on the beets, bigger beets work best for this application, also the thickness of the slices, they should be pretty thin to start. Also making sure that they have cooked enough after the initial baking.
There is one initial baking between the silicone mats for 30 minutes at 200F-93C, then remove the top layer and dehydrate in a low temperature oven 175F-79C until completely dry, this will take around 2 hours.
Why don’t you cook the whole beets a little before cutting them instead of baking covered in silpat and baking sheet (which could take a lot of time if you don’t have lots of silpats and baking sheets)? 🤗
I think cutting would be a bit difficult when cooked and soften. Might lose the nice clean round cut. Like when you peel a pear when it’s too soft, mushy pear gets caught all in the y peeler.
Cooked beets are too soft to get perfect cuts like this and they wont crisp up correctly (speaking from experience at work). If you dont have 2 silpats, parchment paper should be fine
