    Freeze Drying Digest

    OK the celery, carrot shreds, peas, and spring onions all came out gang busters. The horseradish and Sauerkraut did not, but that was my fault.

    In the deep freeze I have a tray of diced celery, two trays of spring onions, a tray of carrot shreds, and a tray of horseradish, sauerkraut, and peas, in silicone molds. Tomorrow, I'll pop those out of the molds and put them on tray 5 and toss everything into the FD. This is stuff I use all...
