Truth in (your) advertising--I dehydrated some frozen broccoli and later added it to some alfredo. I was praised because "you know how much I love my broccoli," and was told how good it tasted. I later revealed that it was dehydrated...they couldn't believe how fresh it tasted! You are, by far, my favorite & most trusted go-to authority on dehydrating, so thanks!

I have a broccoli tip for you. I'm allergic to dairy so I like to cook my fresh broccoli by putting about a 1/4-1/2 of a cup of chicken broth in a pan, tossing the broccoli in & cooking the broccoli in that broth. It makes the broccoli buttery flavored & delicious without the butter. OH! I also slice the broccoli stems into rounds & cook them as well. I like the stems best.

I will have to get Moisture absorbers because South Louisiana is very humid. I am learning so much from your channel. Thank you again.

A steamer insert works perfect for blanching and you can go larger amounts at a time. All you have to do is fill the bottom pan deeper and it will fill the steamer insert with water. Then you can lift the whole insert out when done.

That's a real in-your-face difference, like with broccoli. When I ask them which jar they would pick, hands down it's always the blanched one.

How long will these last in Mylar bags that are vacuum sealed with an oxygen absorber and a desiccant packet?

You don't use both desiccant packs and O2 absorbers. They last a couple of years....optimally - anything you might get after that is bonus.

Do you add a desiccant packet to the foods you've dehydrated (before vacuum sealing for storing)? I noticed some recommend using a desiccant pkg at the bottom of the jar and an oxygen absorber at the top of the jar, and am confused about the best way to store dehydrated foods. (Or should the dehydrated foods be placed in mylar bags with oxygen absorbers?🤦‍♀️) So much to learn. 😐

They aren't necessary if you dry properly, condition, and store in airtight containers of the right size. You can use them (don't use them together), but if you need something, use a moisture absorber .

I haven't sharpened it, yet, but it needs it. I've had it about a year, and it definitely needs some sharpening.

I have this same dehydrator! Saw your review on it as well. Love broccoli and will dehydate some as well. I did just dehydrate some strawberries, and I'm wondering how crisp they must be to store. Mine are still a bit pliable and I've dehydrated them for more than the required amount of time. What do you think, or how would you test that? Should I try to condition them? Thank you!

Never go by the time. Go by if they are done. They should easily snap apart. If you're doing them for snacking only (to be eaten in a few days), it's not as important since it won't have time to mold. But for storage, dry until it's completely dry.

Question! Can you use an air fryer oven to dehydrate? thanks! Kim

Depends on the air fryer - not all get low enough not to actually cook. And most don't give you the ability to do volume - but yes you can.
