Wow, I’ve been missing out too long…I make a curried zucchini soup which is vegan, I’m not a vegan but this soup is delicious and the cooked zucchini gets blended in the end…now that I think of it the only ingredients are onion, zucchini, and potato, and curry powder. I could dehydrate all the components and put them in jars with instructions and put them in my Christmas Baskets! Thanks for the inspiration!!!!!!! ♥️🙏👍🇺🇸🤓

[@ThePurposefulPantry]

Yes! You can even add cream to it when you blend it at the end to add creaminess to it (not vegan - but it can be done at that point if you like).

[@sandysmith7029]

Could you please share the recipe?

[@villagesteader3552]

@@sandysmith7029 sure, I got the recipe from Everyday Food Magazine: it is in my style of writing recipes down. I have made this soup many times and I’m always surprised at how good it is. 1TBSP Olive Oil 1 medium onion chopped Salt and pepper 2 big cloves of garlic minced 2 tsp curry powder (green) 1 1/2 lbs zucchini sliced about 3 medium 1 baking potato peeled, chopped Cook onion in oil and 1 TBSP salt til soft, add garlic and curry powder, stir for about 1minute to bloom the spice. Add zucchini, potato, a quart of water, bring to a boil and reduce heat to a simmer, cook until tender. Purée soup either in blender or I use a stick blender because it’s safer. I have had my share of mishaps with blenders and hot liquids!🤣 I will work out the amounts of dehydrated potato, zucchini and onion when I can, I like to put the soup ingredients together. In a jar so it’s handy!

[@darianroscoe1017]

I have 3 Ronco dehydrators with 8 shelves each. I cut mine in almost ½" slices when they are quite large, about 3" across the middle (seeds are still small and tender), and dry them...when dry they are about ⅛'' thick and about 1½" across. I store them in 1 gallon glass jars. My favorite way to use them is rehydrate them in a bit of broth and add them when I'm about to mash the potatoes for mashed potatoes. Looks so pretty and amount of vitamins is incredible! This Summer I got 4 gallon jars dehydrated, often running all 3 dehydrators at the same time just from two Zucchini plants, two yellow squash plants and two UFO squash plants. They are all basically the same thing and I store them together for reuse.

[@cynforrest]

Life got in the way and I lost my garden this year. I’m waiting for a squash sale so I can try dehydrating zucchini. Thank you Darcie, I’m learning a lot from you.

The Trader Joe's chilie lime season blend is a good alternative for Tajin. It has a stronger tangy lime flavor. Either seasoning are yummy as a lite dusting as the seasoning on watermelon.

[@flowerdalejewel]

I love the idea of drying them and making powder. I've made lots of different veggie and fruit powders but haven't tried zucchini. I stick the powders in everything it's a great way of lifting the flavour of dishes and the fusspot kids don't now the veggies are in their food

[@judithlund4346]

Hi Darcy, I have just found you 😁 and I’m so glad I have. I bought a 9 tray Excalibur dehydrator about 6 or so years ago and must admit the book that came with it didn’t have a lot of information. I have binge watched your channel over the past week or so and have loved every minute ………. I have learnt more about dehydrating in this time than I have in 6 years. I used to “sprout” a lot of different nuts for my husband I and chicken tenders as treats for our dog………because they always turned out pretty well 😁. Berries, fruit and veggies not so much as they usually went yucky after a while. The last week or so I have dehydrated spinach, celery, mushrooms, capsicum and onion and followed your example of drying them brittle and conditioning them …… never knew about conditioning ?? Makes such a difference. After all that …….. I just wanted to say THANK YOU for sharing all the wonderful advice you give 💖💗💓 I live in Melbourne, Australia, and as we are in our sixth or seventh (?) week of lockdown due to the spread of COVID 19 this has given me something to help fill my days and stop me from going crazy 😜. At least I can get to our local market…..they are within the travel limits that have been set…..yay!! Thanks again. Kind Regards Jude

[@ThePurposefulPantry]

If your fruits and veg went yucky - that's either from not blanching if necessary or not being dry enough before storing. So give them another try!!!

[@mariegatzmer829]

I just bought a dehydrator, but have never used one. I just hit upon this site and was delighted. Now you have given me confidence to try out some veggies, later fruits, then meat. Thanks, I will be looking you up for more ideas.

[@highlandscommunityclub1160]

I dehydrated LOTS of zucchini chips last year and they stored perfectly in sealed jars with silica packets. After a year, I had only used them once. Was so much work....but the chickens liked them! This year I’m only dehydrating tomatoes again, along with more herbs. The dehydrated tomatoes reconstituted beautifully and after a few seconds in the vitamix made wonderful sauces, no pealing needed!

[@amyschmelzer6445]

Sometimes we learn lessons about ourselves the hard way and that’s okay. I don’t think my family would use dried zucchini either. They like their zucchini sweet and never savory. I will stick to shredding and freezing for breads.

[@ThePurposefulPantry]

If those chips aren't overly seasoned in a way that makes them too much of a flavor, throw them into zucchini bread or powder it for veg powder! (I know you gave it to your chickens and that's not a waste, for sure), but there are other ways to use stuff even if you don't eat them alone!

[@jules-marcdavis6843]

I have a book - but it's about the theory of dehydrating, no dehydrating specific things. It's a Q&A type book. Just wait until next spring, though if you want a full book ;) It's coming!

What is the white sheet under the zucchini on your tray? Is it parchment paper

Zucchini chips are my husbands new favorite way to use up the zucchini. Making zucchini chips, we have 10 plants, and are using them up as fast as our garden can grow them. Thanks for the awesome idea.
