    This is the thing that will make my decision easier. We prefer homecanned meats, and I own 2 dehydrators. Eggs are the only thing that I buy freeze dried. I just assumed dehydrated eggs would be inferior to the freeze dried. That's what I get for assuming! 🤣 a freeze drier is no longer a lingering wish! Thanks Heidi! You are the bomb! 💗

    • @RainCountryHomestead
      @RainCountryHomestead  3 ปีที่แล้ว +24

      I had assumed the same thing. I was so unimpressed with those Honeyville eggs that I had assumed these would be the same. Nope, these are way better. Not sure if it is because they use additive in their eggs to prevent clumping, or what it is but the quality of my own was far superior. Now it is the test of time and really, if they only hold their quality for 3 months, that would still be sufficient.

      @@RainCountryHomestead I'm new to pressure canning, but my take on storing dry egg would be to pull a HARD vacuum on the container.
      When I was a kid (60+ years ago) we would toss a lighted match into an opened jar of salmon eggs (fish bait) before slamming the lid on. Supposedly, the burning match used up all the oxygen and kept the remaining eggs fresh.
      Hey, it absolutely works for that purpose. Do you think it would be the same for powdered egg?

    What i do is scramble 2 eggs at a time and place them in silicone muffin cups then put them in them freezer. When frozen transfer into a freezer bag and freeze i believe good for 1 year or more. I have been using this for a while now and it works for me. By the way i love watching you and think you are helping people with your channel tremendously. God bless.

    A tip I have found if you mix the eggs in a blender they get frothy and I find the bubble help them dry faster and they have a better texture and turn out more bright yellow. If I dont they turn a brownish yellow and take longer to dehydrate especially when I had a dehydrator with out adjustable temperature.

    • @RainCountryHomestead
      @RainCountryHomestead  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      I tried that but did not find them to dry any faster and certainly were not blended any better in the end since I process them in a blender or coffee grinder anyway once dried. Here is my more recent video on these: th-cam.com/video/bgPpVJ93dCM/w-d-xo.html

    I've dehydrated eggs for many years. I always vacuum seal in mason jars. While Ive never had a seal break, the unfortunate thing is they only last maybe 15 months before they change color. I no longer use them at that point.

      And many people do but not everyone can afford them so I am showing people that it can indeed be done without that high expense and maintenance. This egg powder is so good and has been working great in all the things I have used it in so far that I have put up two more jars since this video and will likely do more.

    Thanks Heidi, I loved the video, I'm going to try to do the eggs tomorrow first thing. I'm hoping to get chickens in the next few weeks as we are coming into spring season. At the moment I'm buying local eggs but we always seem to run out. Powered eggs seem the answer and great for off season too. The best other tip was the fabric in with powder as I couldn't figure out what was going on with the food saver , it had been working so well. I've just invested in a finder to make powders and had that problem. Thank you for address it. You've saved me so much time. Thank you for sharing your knowledge I really appreciate it. ❤️

    Hello Heidi, I've considered dehydrating eggs for awhile, but was nervous about safety with storage. I feel much more confident after viewing this video - I trust you and your methods/experience. I have just recently made pasta for the first time, the wider noodles turned out great, then I tried making butternut squash ravioli (butternut squash from the garden!) and while it tasted really good, that pasta was a bit tough....so I'm looking forward to learning pasta making with dehydrated eggs from you!
