Yay! From the UK. As I type, my dehydrator is working on a huge pumpkin. So nice to see what others do. Best wishes.

I really appreciate your clear instructions. Your clarifying comments made the video especially thorough and informative. Great tip about the lemon juice! Thank you!

I was told I must wash with vinegar and water before cutting it do to micro bugs is this true? And do I need to blanch the pumpkin???

[@80sToyHunter]

Yes you should wash your pumpkin before processing it. I personally did not blanch my pumpkin before dehydrating but you can if you want.

Would this work in a tea blend? I'm wondering what will happen if I add this to boiled water. Will it dissolve like powder, or will it soften and hold it's shape?

[@80sToyHunter]

If you add to water, it will plump back up.

Did you blanch first?

[@80sToyHunter]

No I didn’t.

Do you salt??

[@80sToyHunter]

I did not.
