Recipes using all dried and freeze-dried ingredients.....

​

Most of the recipes in this category can be placed in a quart jar and sealed.

Do your own research for that method as I am too new at this to help you!!

​

​

For years (because of a tight budget) I used basic food storage (wheat, rice, etc. in buckets), plus frozen, canned (case lot sales), and our home bottled items from our garden. Plus the

dried apples, onions, carrots offered in #10 cans at the LDS Home Storage Center.

​

I have wanted to learn how to use dry/dried/freeze dried items for easy just add water meals. Also, I'm new to the idea of putting dry meals into glass jars and sealing them for longer term storage, so I cannot help anyone with that, but you can find much info online for this method.

 

NOTE: I am just learning that when FD meat is opened, it possibly needs to be used within a short period of time or sealed in glass jars. I have read 24 hours, 48 hours, and within a week .....thus I don't know yet for certain what is best? Make sure you do your own research on this.


 


Best way to reconstitute freeze-dried cheese:  Place 2 cups of FD Cheese into a glass bowl. Lightly stir cheese with a spoon while slowly drizzling 1/2 cup of cold water over the cheese. Lightly stir constantly until all of the water is incorporated into the cheese. The water should

just barely start to collect on the bottom of the glass bowl: this is a sign that the cheese has

now absorbed enough water.  Place the cheese into a zip-loc bag, and store in refrigerator overnight before using.  It will last up to 8 days in the fridge. Adjust quantity reconstituted

to your individual needs.
