Food Storage Part 1 of 3

Oh PEAS AND CARROTS!!

I finally dehydrated some veggies and they came out great. I used 1 bag of frozen peas because I couldn't find fresh. The only thing is because they were frozen I did not blanch them before I dehydrated them and I just put them in some cool water briefly to get the icicles off. They turned out nice and green and they taste great.( seeing as how they are dehydrated now)





I also dehydrated some carrots. They came out bright orange and kept their good slightly crunchy texture and flavor. I used 2 lbs of carrots and that dehydrated filled up 1 8 ounce jar. The peas were 1 bag of peas which also when finished filled up a small 8 ounce jar.
