Dried tomatoes

[AK8591]

Do they go bad on you or do they keep pretty well? How long do you usually keep them ?

[AnneMarie96]

@AK8591 I'm still using the tomatoes I dried in this video. So, this video was made Aug 2008, it's now 2011. I stored them in the freezer and they taste just as good today as then.

if you oil pack them you take a chance of botchulism and death. If you oil them and put in the refrigerator, and keep them cold that is fine.

Thanks for the great video. I have lots of tomatoes and I am getting my first dehydrator!

[kreestenkreesten]

That was really helpful. Thank you!

[tommy30507]

Great video. Tomatoes are GREAT, too...:-)

[licky20]

Is it possible to rehydrate them for...lets say a sandwich?

[AnneMarie96]

Sorry no, however I do sprinkle the pulverized dried tomato over buttered bread. It's quite tasty.

I thoughti was the only person who ground up

the dry tomato chips for sauces :( one tip on that grind them up at time of use ,leave them as chips till then otherwise they cake up like concrete! i just dried up 10 lbs of on sale mushrooms.last tip;if you grow celery,save the leaves and dry them too. they are a great substitute for parsley in soups and sauces.nesco is a great machine but make sure to get the white tray models and NOT the clear tray mdls as the melt and break ez

[AnneMarie96]

Thank you so much for watching. Yes, I found that out, it cakes up like concrete but, I also found, if I keep it in the freezer that will not happen. (I have a lot of freezer space)

Never saw something like that, kind of cool! ;)

[canadianstudmuffin]

I am in shock.

I actually learned something. :P

[AnneMarie96]

I'm so pleased. I think I learn something everyday. That's because I forgot yesterday.

[AnneMarie96]

Can you tell the round-up didn't take. All that rain during 888 must have washed it off. Thank you Lord.

Wow!

I have never heard of or seen one of those machines, but how clever!

and what a great way of storing the tomatoes so you can use them throughout the winter.

I am impressed :-)

thank you. I found it on the internet years ago, to make beef jerky.

[barryperrins]

Never seen that before. Bet you could use them to make a great curry!

[AnneMarie96]

Yup. This dryer is one of the best purchases I've ever made. Beef jerky is my husbands favorite and I use curry in that. I suppose I could really start from scratch making the curry.

I LOVE tomatoes ... dried tomatoes on pizza ... mmmmmmmmmmmm!

[AnneMarie96]

Me too!

[johnburnap]

well that was great! now all i need is a dehydrator. and tomatoes. or bananas! yummy!!

[AnneMarie96]

Yep, as I aged, I acquired all these things. Your turn will come.

[KurtGnu]

Dried tomatoes?? Yum.. :) Any kind of tomato is a nice tomato.. :)

[AnneMarie96]

Did you get the part about the bananas ......I was talking about you.

[KurtGnu]

Barney hates thunderstorms too.. Never seen a dehydrator like that before, but it's sure faster than sundrying! I was thinking of Banana chips too, when I saw you layer those trays.. I guess that would work very well, yes!! I have just made a lot of Banana comments on a couple of other videos, so forgive me if I am all 'bananad out' at the moment... :)
