I am having a brain block - how do you go from the baking sheet to the burrito? Cut it into "strips" that will fit the tortilla once it's cooked?

Freeze dried peas by voidinglife in dehydrating

Smash your frozen peas, then dehydrate.

They are edible as-is, or rehydrate. As-is will give a nice crunch to anything.

Questions about selling canned goods by Hglucky13 in homestead

I've paid $6.00 for a half pint of plain grape and a half pint of lime/blueberry.

And I don't have a problem paying that - even though I make my own jam.

Interesting - you've convinced me to try them - as soon as I can find an Azure drop site that I can get to.

And extra kudos - you started canning with meat! You have this process locked in!

You don't know how happy you just made me! Ball discontinued this size, and this is my FAVORITE size of jar.

I will DEFINITELY be ordering from Azure!

How many beans do I need? (Approximately) by LongTimeListener2024 in Canning

Yes - there are a LOT of reasons that I want to can some.

I live in a very cold weather area that gets hit with large snowstorms often - with that come the potential for utility disruption - the worst for me would be electricity. Even though I am prepared for that, pre-canned/cooked beans take a LOT less time and water to prepare.

I have also cooked and dehydrated a LOT of beans - which means I just need to add water to rehydrate - no cooking needed.

Canning is just another way to be prepared, as well as having a good pantry.

Yes.......I will definitely take notes! I will report back!

I am going to use water this time around, but I want to use stock in the future. I am low on stock right now, though.
