Like you, I was busy doing other ‘immediate’ chores and my FD sat quiet until today. Doing 7 dz scrambled eggs now and plan to make some cowboy quiche to put in as soon as eggs are finished.
We’re keeping the FDers busy with raw milk before our supply dries up for a few months. The season’s first batch of salsa is going. I’ve especially enjoyed just putting our basil through the food processor before freeze drying it. It’s so easy to use and much better tasting than freezing or dehydrating. Next thing to go in will be the 12 doz. eggs that are taking up too much room.
Made some more pizza ” crackers ” again.
Additionally, we just finished zucchini slices ( DELICIOUS ! ) and four trays of spaghetti sauce.
I have started to completely drain all the oil immediately after usage, then fill the pump beyond the splash plate to minimize any affects of water / rust on components. I’ll take the cover off after a few more batches and let you know how things work out.
Additionally, I have made my own filter system from 3 inch PVC pipe and stuffed it with quilting – used Agribon fabric row cover to place on lower end of pipe. So far extremely pleased with results. The key is to pour the unfiltered oil into the pipe small batches at a time. Comers out nice and clear. Still developing further ” tweaks ” !
@Ron,
Three ways to attach pics to your post:
The system will allow some limited HTML tags in comments: b, i, a, blockquote, img, ul, ol, and li, are but a few. If you have a place to host the picture, you can use the img tag like this <img src=”https://yourlinkhere”>
You can email me the pic with instructions on which comment you want it attached to and I’ll put it in
You can just send me your write up along with one or more pics and I’ll make you the feature of Freeze Dried Friday
