When put purée in refrigerator, should I warm it back up before putting in dehydrator?

@DaZebraffe 2 года назад

Don't discard the strings/silk/whatever-you-want-to-call-it from the inside of the pumpkin, either! It goes great in vegetable broth. Also, the skin can be fried into chips. So, really, the only parts of a pumpkin that can't be eaten are the stem, and that weird butthole thing on the bottom. XD

@WinnifredJPeacock 2 года назад

You can eat the stems and leaves as well.

I want to keep it on hand for if the dogs get sick. I make a pumpkin pruee to make soup for the dogs that helps them 99% of the time. Great while you wait for your vet appointment. Then just cancel the appointment if they get better. I make the soup a little different depending on the issue but it helps with mild dehydration from throwing up, helps with vomiting, diarrhea, constipation and a blockage.

@@chickchoc It would depend on the tummy issues. I love to make a nice pumpkin bread 🍞 with wheat flour. That helps me when I feel sick. I add more salt if I am nauseous.

The step I skipped, which I shouldn't have, was to puree it after that. I just mashed it straight to the trays and my blender didn't crush it into a very fine powder. They are still some very hard chunks. The uncooked ones I did (peeled then shredded) blended a bit better I think.
