Dehydrating

[vivaloriflamme]

I think the video quality is great-- no problem hearing you.

In my youth I had to live on the 50 pound sack of potatoes. When I think of college, I think potatoes. Potato soup/bread/pancakes/scalloped/­mashed.Ugh.

[skybirdbird]

@vivaloriflamme good...glad you could hear it....

lol on the potatoes....for me it was rice...but i love rice...and potatoes...and bread...and pasta...lol...i just love starch i guess....:-)

[skybirdbird]

@infomorgue WOW...sounds good! ...tkx for the info!

[OlGreyWolf58]

Wife wont let me dehydrate garlic anymore.....Couldn't understand......

[skybirdbird]

@OlGreyWolf58 lol...yes..it can get odoriferous!

[ChrmdLabradorite]

Never tried onions. So glad you did this though, reminds me to get my dehydrator out and do something productive! Decorate the jars and would make nice xmas presents. :)

[skybirdbird]

@ChrmdLabradorite onions are real easy because you do not need to steam or blanch ...really smell strong though so wait until you can open the windows ...:-)

yes...would make great gifts!

I think I know why the dark taters,,your slicer blade,I got one found in vintage listing all stainless steel ,,love it for meat sliceing but discovered the potatoe greyed ,so went back to my stainless chef knife for dehydrate sliceing,,and don't bother with a apple corer ,,the forks that stab apple/ect ruin the fruit and the silly things are impossable to center for a smooth cut- I freezer ziplock my produce and it's fine after 3yrs..no space for jars ,store them in galvinized Trash cans W/Lids

[skybirdbird]

@wizardangel not sure on the taters...i did them before i got the slicer...sliced them by hand with a ss chef knife...i'm thinking maybe they were not steamed long enough...

Spraying the food with lemon juice will usually prevent browning. Best to you and yours.

[skybirdbird]

@randallsellis thanks...i have heard that but was told not to spray potatoes with lemon, or any acid for that matter...will have to read up on it some more i guess...then experiment...:-)

[CTOL1]

I knew it was you sorta LOL

I am sure with a few trials and errors you'll get it right...

Great video all in all, the message comes through none the less

[skybirdbird]

@CTOL1 lol...i am thinking i may need to keep the old camera for yt stuff...we will see...i was really hoping to sell it, but not sure i will be able to get around the issues ...still a great little camera...

[NibiruMagick2012]

[skybirdbird]

@NibiruMagick2012 you got that right!

[Skybinary]

dehydrating onions is something i must do! thanks for introducing me to this concept, it would be nice to compliment this video showing re-hydrating of those plz :)

[skybirdbird]

@Skybinary yes....i plan on doing this at some point...:-) i'll tell you what though ...don't dehydrate onions until you can have the doors and windows open...lol

[Hobohube]

[icebreaker7]

@mylilibaby agreed :)

thumbs up skybirdbird

[skybirdbird]

@icebreaker7 lol again...i am at a loss....

[icebreaker7]

@skybirdbird the volume was low, but with a slight adjustment (vol=MAX) to my speakers I was able to hear it just fine. :D

[skybirdbird]

@mylilibaby lol... the content? or the choppy out of sync, inaudible part?

[mylilibaby]

@skybirdbird LOL The content . I"m trying to learn how to cook lol

[skybirdbird]

@mylilibaby i see...well...i hope the cooking vids are helping...:-)

[skybirdbird]

@mylilibaby but thank you...:-)

[commando602]

In WMM..... There is a volume setting...

I'm sure you know this but.... Go to tools, audio levels and make sure the toggle is smack dab in the middle..then go to clip, audio then volume....turn it up all the way....

You already know this i bet....

[skybirdbird]

@commando602 lol...did not realize the volume sucked too...lol...lol...you can't hear, but it sped up the audio so i sounded like a chip monk ...and the timing is all off ...i obviously have a ways to go with this....
