Hey, Reader! If you've got leftover cabbage from your St Patrick's Day celebrations, or if you want to take advantage of the incredibly low prices of an in-season produce, now's the time to stock up on cabbage for the year! I've seen people reporting cabbage prices as low as .19/lb this week! When you can find in-season produce at rock-bottom prices, it's time to stock up and preserve it! How Stinky Is It?So this week, I'm dehydrating cabbage...and my house smells like one giant fart. Even with windows open and fans going, it's noticeable :D However, I'll be happy to have this cabbage all year when we're ready to make Eggroll in a Bowl (or create a meal in a jar version) whenever we want, mostly from dried ingredients!

Hi, Reader! A first question I get from almost every beginner is, "I put my food in the dehydrator for 6 hours, like the manual said, and everything is not dry. What did I do wrong?" My anwer almost always is - trusting that timer. Learn more about why timers are good for nothing more than watching time past when it comes to dehydrating: Watch video TLDR: In this video, I show how to dehydrate cherries, and the danger of relying on that timer instead of whether a food is actually dry or not....
