I've only done one load of white rice....planning to do more of both brown and white...but let me tell you this: while I think it's cool that you can vacuum seal jars in the FD, that's just way too much time and effort for me. For years I used my Foodsaver with the jar attachment system. What a pain to pull it out when you have to reseal a jar! I gifted myself one of the rechargeable handheld ones and it's AWESOME! Put the lid on the jar, no ring, put the sealer on top and press the start button. Voila! sealed tight, add ring if you want to but move on to the next jar, rinse and repeat. I can have 6 or 8 jars vacuum sealed in the time it would take me to remove the trays from the FD, and for 24.00 it's a blessing. By the way, If you like peas and rice together, FD peas added to FD rice using boiling hot water and then covering it, let it sit until hydrated, stir and boom....done. Love having these quickie things on my pantry shelf.

11:25 - I know this video is a few years old, but there is a setting in the Harvest Right FD to turn only the pump on with it plugged into the machine. (In fact, you can turn each setting on individually) If you do it with the machine settings, you will be able to see how much vacuum is pulled out of the chamber to avoid any guesswork. I don't know if this is an option on older machines, but it is on the v5.5 software on my machine. This also works on store-bought jars that don't fit a traditional dry canning vacuum attachment. Great video, my friend. I have subscribed and pushed you one for sub closer to 200k. (197k currently) Keep the great informative videos coming!

I also add a teaspoon of any kind of oil/fat I have on hand to make it fluffier. For the most part I also add garlic gloves, salt, and any other veggies I'm in the mood for. Not sure if you can do all of that with freeze drying though. Maybe when you rehydrate it?

1 cup of cooked riced weighed minus the weight of one cup freeze dried rice equals the amount of water to add back. So if the difference between the 1 cup cooked and dried was 6 oz that is how much to add back in. So you need to weigh portions before putting on the tray and those same potions after.

I've done several batches I usually do six cups of rice and six cups of water. When I finish cooking the rice it comes out delicious like you said just like a Chinese restaurant. However even though I strained it in a strainer quite a bit until the water was clear, when I tried to put it on the freeze dry trays The rice is so sticky that it clumps together.
