#fruitpowder #thepurposefulpantry #dehydratingfruit
Only 2:30 in and I’m not just learning how to powder fruit, I’m being shown a great way to relieve some of my pent up anger.☺️
I usually just freeze my fruit, but this will save so much room in the freezer and be delicious on yogurt.
Darcy…I removed the berries, put them individually in blender and chopped…cam out puréed but it’s fine. I used my frosting knife and spread the berries like I was frosting a cake and with a skewer I picked out the blueberries that didn’t mush up and ate them…LOL! Their dehydrating as I comment. That frosting knife was a game changer for me as the spatula wasn’t working for me. Once their all dried, I’ll grind up and have my powders. Thank you Darcy!!
Great!
@@ThePurposefulPantry be careful with oxalates
@@blue.hydrangeasdoes pureeing vs pulping release oxilates? Please explain.
@@cw4608please explain
What does this mean? I don’t want to do something wrong
Thank goodness I'm not the only one.
I've been making these fruit & veggies powders for years and I thought I was just weird.
My favorite is wild blackberry powder because I have millions of berries growing around me for free.
You guys are geniuses haha. I never thought of this even though I have a mini orchard lol
I’ve got to tell you that you are an excellent teacher. You cover all the info simply, modeling what needs to be done, what can happen & ways to fix any problem, & then summarizing what you’ve taught. So thank you for having a channel like this which offers more than the usual.
I was about to say the same thing, but less eloquently 😊
Making powder is my favorite thing to do, & I learned from you in your group. I sprinkle my organic spinach powder on many dishes & use it in smoothies. My fruit powders are great in frostings, homemade whipped cream & smoothies. Thanks Darcy!
Sounds great!
When you say frostings, are you talking about what I would call icing? It's mostly spread on top of sweetbreads or cake, if you are that does sound pretty good. Thank you,bsafe.
Yes, sometimes I call it frosting, sometimes I call it icing.
L
Awesome.
I live in the Philippines where bluberries don't grow BUT your channel is a treasure trove. I want to try your generous tips with the berries that grow in my region. Thanks a lot!
what were your results? What berries did you try?
Brilliant hack to crunch them up before dehydrating- didn't even THINK of that!
I have put my powders back into my dehydrator to condition the powder. I put it on a sheet, lay paper towel over that with a wooden spoon to keep it from blowing around. It worked like a charm for me. I have done sweet potatoes like this.
I am so blown away! I have a freezer full of blueberries that I picked/purchased at our local blueberry farm. However, they are taking up so much room in my freezer! So thrilled to find another way to preserve them.
I never thought about making powders... this is such a great idea!! Thanks for posting this!
You are so welcome!
Love you and your methods. Whenever I do anything it looks like a crime scene when I'm done. And it takes a day to make the mess and a week to clean it up.
I love that you're so real and don't care about stains Darcy 😁
That was a very fully informative video. This was my first time visiting your site and am looking forward to seeing many more. Thank you for your time. It was much appreciated!
Invaluable practical talk. Thank you.
Wow, I've never seen so many blueberry at one time. You are truly blessed!
Thanks so much. Great tips to assure a high quality dried product!
I thought I had seen all there is to see about food storage, I’m so happy to learn a new thing today! Thank you for sharing, I can’t wait to try this.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Well done. Smart. Professionally conceived and executed. Informative.
Excellent video, very thorough!!! Thanks for posting.
I was just thinking about trying to make fruit frostings for summer and here is your video with his i can do that! thank you :)
Kudos to all you drying enthusiasts. This is so labor intensive. I have a bumper crop of strawberry guava. The seeds are the size of grape seeds and hold more nutrition than the actual fruit. So I'm going to give this a try. My Ninja has a dehydrating function. So this is a test!
It is in the beginning, but the longer you do it, the more proficient you get, and it's not as labor intensive as you imagine. So much of the time is down time waiting for things to day. You can walk away from it unlike canning.
I bought my long dreamed of Red VitaMix a few years ago, it really pulverize’s the tiny seeds in strawberries and blackberries etc. when making powders.
I use your power greens powder in smoothies for my picky family just about every day now! Thank you
Such a good idea
You are so welcome!
Thank you I love this. I recently started powdering pumpkin purée for my pups and now I’m going to start with blueberries and raspberries ❤
Love this idea. Thank you
what do you do with the pumpkin powder?
My dog loves pumpkin or sweet potato chews.
The first time I dehydrated pumpkin puree I dehydrated it too long & it was like leather. I dropped one on the floor & my dog loved it.
@@NRice34102 thank you for this idea, I have been making home made dog treats and that sounds yummy.
You use your hands for things that I would immediately reach to a tool for, huge respect.
Maybe I just have moist hands as I’m really scared of touching the powder lol.
Wow; thanks, love how you organized the whole process. Great, great help to me.
Glad it was helpful!
Wow, this opens up a whole new opportunity to work with fruits and veggies. Thanks so much.
I just found you and I must say, you are a wealth of knowledge! Thank you for sharing and teaching regular ways I can prepare and store food for my family, especially on a budget.
You are so welcome!
Since starting to watch your channel, I have begun dehydrating food and today ordered more mats for my dehydrator to do powders and finer things. And I am looking for my third dehydrator ☺️ Thank you for such clear instructions 😊
Very interesting video (as usual) I’ve not thought of dehydrating berries, thanks!
Thank you! I love this. I’m planing to make powder with the greens in my garden. Now I’m excited to try the fruit as well ❤
absolutely amazing. Thank you for such an amazing video.
Thanks for sharing. Love almost everything you dehydrate!
You are so welcome!
I'm so glad I found your channel, I'm learning so much. I'm just now trying to get into dehydrating, and although I can't afford one of the premium dehydrators, I feel pretty confident that I'll be able to learn to "work with what I can get. Thanks so much for all of the information you are sharing!!
You definitely don't need a premium dehydrator! Just be on the lookout for one with more than 400Watts if you can, and a temperature control.
Thanks for even more good advice! I found one at 600 watts, with both digital temp control and a timer. I figure this should be plenty good enough to get started with. My amazing hubs bought me a she shed for our anniversary that, while it's not huge, has a full kitchen in it. All we lack right now is getting the water hooked up, & I can get it cleaned, then up and running. I have so many amazing project ideas, and you've given me many more (I'm so excited). I sure appreciate you're sharing your knowledge and experience with us!
@@ThePurposefulPantry Can you use one that doesn’t have a temperature control?
I bought the cheapest dehydrator I capfuls find. It’s still working after 15+ years. Just get started, you don’t need top of the line machine
@@Imokanurnot It is interesting reading your response.
I live in the tropics. I grew up knowing that my grandmother sold dried coconut for a living.
There was a very large shed in the backyard. The shed had a retractable roof. Manually operated. You had to close the roof if it looked like rain was coming.
So I also learned to look to the sky and sense when it’s about to rain.
Amazing. The more things change the more they remain the same.
Enjoy your fruit and veggies drying project.
Thank you. I’m going to do this and make greens for my smoothie
You are the Queen of dehydrating!
Not hardly lol. But it is a passion of mine.
I've always wanted to do this. Thanks for making the video and info❤
Wow!! This channel is solid gold!! ❤❤❤
I love that tool! I've only done blueberries once and vowed to never do them again! This changes my mind!
genius I love these kinds of ideas. Sometimes you don't want to eat but then you don't want the food in the fridge to rott.
Great thanks for the tips.
I love my fruit smoothies and so look forward to trying powdering the fruit to keep it available!
Hey girl!!! This is brilliant!! Thank you so much for sharing!!!!!
Excellent video. Professionaly done with a lot of useful information. A real pleasure to watch and easy to follow. I am going to be spending all my spare time binging on your videos. Thank you
This is brilliant. Thx! I puréed strawberries to do something similar but I never thought I drying it like this. Nice eating but it failed. Definitely time to try again.
I've been looking for a purple powder to use as garnish and this is perfect. Thanks for sharing!
Just had my 8 tier dehydrator arrive last week such great advice thank you
What kind did you get? I’m looking for a good one.
I'm a master at drying out the leafy Greens into powder but can't seem to master the Juicy Fruit. Just when I think it's dried and ready to blend, I discover it's moist and gluggy. Well done to all of the masters out there
Blueberries, when froze, water expands outward so freezing then dehydrating should make it much easier. I love Spinach and Kale, that’s something I haven’t started yet. How do you do yours ….. ?
I'm thinking that perhaps a tiny bit of cornstarch or arrowroot powder added to the dried berries in the blender would help it not clump up (due to sugars). It's the same thing that's added to sugar when powdering it!
@esemmanuel6603 Thank you for the dehydrating hint, and I'm sorry I haven't seen your comment until now.. I hope you had some luck with your spinach and kale.. If you notice the plant leaves getting nibbled on, flipped the leaves over and look for little caterpillars, get rid of any you find..
The top leaves are the best for drying. I either use a dehydrator or I place them in the car to dry in a sunny position. Open up a box, place leaves on top. Crack your windows open an inch or 2, to let the condensation out👣🗝💦🌱
@AuntNutmeg That's really interesting. Thank you for that information..
You've given me some keywords to look into the science behind what your saying.. ✔️
@@ralsharp6013 I hope it works for you! The ratio for powdered sugar is 1 Tablespoon of arrowroot powder or corn starch per cup of sugar. I'm thinking a bit less might work with fruit since it's not pure sugar. Good luck experimenting!
Aah! I'm so happy TH-cam recommended me this! Thank you!
I'm getting into healthier cooking and this helps me to add my own ingredients from my garden to my pantry!
I could watch your videos and learn from you for days at a time. You are such a phenomenal teacher, and so knowledgeable! Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us.

Dehydrated peak season strawberries for the first time...amazing!!!!

Thank you Darcy. I dehydrated blueberries. Lucky for me that after watch your other videos I went back and checked the jar and for a blueberry drip 😢. Thank you soo much
I never thought of doing this thank you so much
I love your introduction star seed ♥️
Praise the LORD for creating fruit powders!
Wonderful methodology!
This is cool! I was hoping to recreate Juice Plus supplement on my own - this video was very helpful!
I am immediately looking on Amazon for dehydration machine. This is genius and so versatile
Love how you explain the process, very thorough
Glad it was helpful!
A blueberry powder to make with milk for a milkshake would be amazing wish nesquik would make a blueberry flavor 💥
This is all new for me. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge
You are so welcome
This video was so helpful. Thank you.
That is a very thoughtful husband.
And this is a very thorough video.

I learned so much! Thank you!
You are so welcome!
I just discovered your channel by chance, I love everything I hear and see, watching from South Africa
Thank u … love the presentation 😃
So nice of you
I had tiny wild tomatoes that are this size. I put them in a zip lock bag and crushed the with a rolling pen. Worked great to dehydrate them. I will try this with berries.
Great class!! Thank you!
Glad you liked it!
i have learened so much from your videos thank you
You are very welcome
seems this would be great to add to a tea mix
Thanks TH-cam for this recommendation. I tried to dry blueberries but I used hole berries that took forever to dry and the result was not good. I’m definitely going to try again with your recipe. Thanks
Thanks. I am just getting started in doing power.
You'll have so much fun!!!! It's just so versatile in all the varieties - green, veg, fruit, etc!
This is so cool, I'm going to try this out!
Oh now I need to go picking! I’d love powdered blueberries for my daily smoothies. Tell me about conditioning? I could look it up, but I’d love to know how you would do it.Thanks!!
It's in the video, Kelly - show how to do it.

Happy to help!
Well now! I am absolutely ecstatic to try this. I haven't looked yet to see if there's a video on more uses, but could I tempt you into telling me a few more things you can use this for. I have some ideas, but I am curious to see what you use them in regularly. ✌️😍🤗❤️
The link in the description has a ton of uses for them
Thank you - super helpful!
