We open #10 cans of apricots, pears, vruit cocktail and a jar of my home canned peaches to freeze dry as snacks. They turned out fantastic!

The two weeks before canning season kicks in we go through the shelves and pull the oldest fruit and get it into the freeze dryer, sometimes we sprinkle some cinnamon on the peaches (tastes very different, like cobbler vs the fresh we FD), i love the pears, hubby the nectarines, and even have FD the applesauce and pear sauce for camping.

I freeze dried mandarin oranges and they turned out wonderful. I buy the sugar free cans so didn't have much a problems with sugar.

Prayers that you have a speedy recovery. That freeze dried fruit looks so delicious.

Thank you for these videos. I learned lots of emergency lessons, canning and dehydrating from you over these last 3 years and now i am freeze drying too.

You are very welcome and we appreciate your being with us for so long!!!

If you have @3 T of mandarin powder left on the tray, you could make a cup of juice.😊

@trailgrazers3690 3 месяца назад

Great idea! I could also crush the fruit to make juice as well!

@babatwofive5727 3 месяца назад

@@trailgrazers3690 That is true. We cannot crush and drink all the fruit we have on our trees in a timely manner, so we do freeze dry it (now that we have a freeze dryer). The food banks no longer take citrus, much to our chagrin, so the fruits usually get wasted. It's a tough pill to swallow.

@danniemcdonald7675 3 месяца назад

The fruit looks beautiful ... as Jim said, like candy! I hope you feel better soon. Take some time off if you need to. We'll still be here. ❤

AGAIN…..I’ve learned so much. I noticed a couple videos you did not pre freeze your food I know I’ve seen you pre freeze before and advocated the step have you changed your approach and if so may I ask way (want to learn) if I am mistaken my apologies Thank You Pam & Jim Just love you guys 😊

What a winner of a snack. I use parchment paper or HRFD tray liners for sugar content foods. Easy cleanup.

@trailgrazers3690 3 месяца назад

Thanks!

@robingirven4570 3 месяца назад

Of course, fresh fruit freeze dries best but I think any way you can preserve it, that’s awesome! Mandarin oranges turn out best, fresh but peeling all those…..🤦‍♀️ Grapes are lovely but my last batch took 70 1/2 hours!!! Fresh peaches and strawberries are our favorite. Feel better soon Pam.

@trailgrazers3690 3 месяца назад

@theoldguy9329 3 месяца назад

Great info. You washed the syrup off the pears, apricots and fruit salad too? Usually sugar there and soaked into the fruit. I think my grandkids will love them. I have not had much luck with the devices that are a bunch of spikes mounted and pushed down to tenderise meat. But something like that may open up the oranges more for the FD and the rehydration. Blueberries were too small.

@trailgrazers3690 3 месяца назад

Yes! Thank you!

@suespeck5607 3 месяца назад

We’ve recently bought a freeze dryer and have been freezing the food first in our stand up freezer. I notice you don’t and let the freeze dryer do it. Have you experimented with both ways and does it matter?

@trailgrazers3690 3 месяца назад

We used to do pre-freezing but when they came out with the latest firmware there was no longer the option of selecting for pre-frozen food, so we now let the freeze dryer do most of the freezing. However, we still pre-freeze liquids like buttermilk.

@MaryWehmeier 3 месяца назад

Use the juice to make jelly. Hope you get some rest Pam. I’ve been recovering from a cold virus for two weeks now. It’s not good..

@trailgrazers3690 3 месяца назад

Thanks Mary. I am now well and hope you are too!

@lynncandler5912 3 месяца назад

Praying you feel better soon. Do you ever prefreeze items before going in the freeze dryer?

@trailgrazers3690 3 месяца назад

We don't do it as often as we used to. With the last firmware update they did away with the pre-frozen setting for starting a new batch, so we just let the FD do the freezing. But I still pre-freeze buttermilk.

@mrs.washington2580 3 месяца назад

I prefer freeze drying canned fruit rather than fresh. If I just have fresh fruit, I cut it into chunks and cook in a light syrup, then freeze dry.

@trailgrazers3690 3 месяца назад

Interesting. Thanks for sharing.

@chewsypets9770 3 месяца назад

Get well soon Pam, please rest, that sounds like a nasty virus. We will be fine if you don’t want to film for a bit, you’re supposed to do this for fun only. Well wishes for a speedy recovery 🌷

@tinak8081 3 месяца назад

I wonder if you put parchment paper under the Mandarin oranges maybe they would peel off easier?

@trailgrazers3690 3 месяца назад

I think that would be worth a try! Thanks.

@mamie57 3 месяца назад

If I want to store these long term, should I use an 02? How long do you think they would last? Thank you.

@trailgrazers3690 3 месяца назад

Yes, either that or vacuum sealing. So far ours have lasted over two years and are going strong.

@T_Barb 3 месяца назад

Have you had problems with your freeze dryer? I was bound and determined to get one. Was going to sell my golf cart to purchase one, then I started finding so many people having trouble with not being able to reach a vacuum. I was in the skilled trades so I know about good fittings and bad fittings and for the price they should have used the better fittings.

@theoldguy9329 3 месяца назад

I have a really old one and have had no vacuum problems (well except for the old pumps they don't sell any more). From what I have heard most of the vacuum problems if the macine initially worked were from the door needing adjustment, or the ring that the door seals to getting g damaged. I gather the drainage valve -- the one Pam talks about -- seems to be subject to getting bumped and damaged if one is not careful.

@miarosie 3 месяца назад

I bought the newer model the end of last year - the 5 tray medium in about Oct and have had zero issues.

@trailgrazers3690 3 месяца назад

We have had some issues with it not holding a vacuum which is common for vacuum equipment. We watched their repair videos and Jim followed those instructions and things are fine now.

@jozy5154 3 месяца назад

How long does the fruit last in a jar or ziplock bag,? Without oxygen absorption or sealed? And if u snack on it every few days

@trailgrazers3690 3 месяца назад

Probably a few months. If sealed then 2-3 years or more.

@jago4673 3 месяца назад

Would pre-freezing or using packed in juice not syrup and washed make a difference?

@trailgrazers3690 3 месяца назад

I now rinse off canned fruit regardless of whether it is packed in syrup or juice. Prefreezing does not seem to make a difference.

Why dud you name it Calvin

@jorthodox807 3 месяца назад

I think it might be named Kelvin which is a unit of measurement of temperature.Named after William Thomson, 1st Baron Kelvin. Scientist use Kelvin because they want a temperature scale where zero reflects the complete absence of thermal energy.Perfect name for a freeze dryer!

@trailgrazers3690 3 месяца назад

Yes, it is Kelvin!
