This was amazing I have been dehydrating frozen vegetables I am having so much fun . I've been canning peaches, pears, milk,beans spaghetti sauce I have run out of jars. I canned a lot when I had my family I am 81 and am hooked on KZread and will have at least a yrs food put up . You did a great job

Thank you! Someone a bit grumpy, I guess 😏. Thanks for the kind words. Note: the thinner you spread them, the better they flake. Rehydrating is about 1 part flakes and two parts water/milk, depending on the kind of potato and how thin they were at dehydration. Blessings!

@northstarprepsteader

@@JHmusician72 haha, wow! Well, according to google and the people therein, Yukon golds are the best for mashing, then flaking. Reds are more of a waxy potato, lower in starch and can get really "pasty" when mashing. They are best roasted & fried. However, you can shred them (food processor grate), and either freeze them for hash browns, or dehydrate them for rehydrated hash browns, adding to soups/stews/casseroles, making potato flour for baked goods, pancakes, etc. Here's a site that might help: seedtopantryschool.com/dehydrating-potatoes-plus-secret-revealed/
Thank you great video . Pro tip: drain them and toss em in a colander immediately after taking them off the heat, the steam from tossing will evaporate the water faster . Mash while hot your potatoes will be smoother faster .

Great video. I've seen a lot of people explain how if you slice your raw potatoes and dehydrate them they turn a very ugly black, because of the excess starch and you need to steam them or cook them to get rid of the excess starch. This was a great video. Thank you for posting it and not telling us all how Jesus is our savior etc. When I watch people cook or prepare food, I don't feel I need to be preached to, unless you want to preach about how wonderful the meal tastes and how much money I saved. I recently bought a bunch of commercially prepared dried foods, I purchased 'Mac & Cheese powder - the yellow powdered cheese', onions flakes, sour cream, butter, honey. I have to wash out my mason jars and vacuum the air out of them for long term storage and also to parcel them up and the containers are kind of large. Especially the butter. It seems I go from having plenty of butter to having none, just when I need some, so I thought, even if the butter is a little weird from being powdered and rehydrated, in cooking it won't make a bit of difference, or even spread on toast under jelly or preserves.

An EXCELLENT video, better than many that are professionally made. Even the low-volume background music wasn't irritating, as most are. I have stage 3 kidney disease and can only eat mashed potatoes if they are double boiled, throwing out the water each time to get rid of the harmful stuff that damages kidneys, and later could force me on dialysis for life. This way I can pre-prepare mashed potatoes that will not over-stress the kidneys. I am 90 years old and had a near-fatal heart attack resulting in massive damage and a 5 part bypass. Your vid might have bought me an extra year or two. Thank you so much.

Hi Northstar Prepsteader. I know it's been a few years since you uploaded this video but, perhaps you'll get a notification of a new post. I also vacuum seal my dehydrated goods. I do have a vacuum sealer but, I have also bought a "break bleeder", (found cheap in most automotive stores) which is an contraption that is used when airing the breaks on your car/truck when replacing the break fluid. However, that thing works VERY good at sucking the air out of jars the same/similar way an electric vacuum sealer does, just without the electricity since it is hand pumped. (up to around 15lbs of pump pressure, which you can see on the gauge connected to the break bleeder) You'll still need to use the plastic lid that you use along with the electric vacuum sealer but, one of the several nozzles included in the break bleeder box, fits the hole in the lid. I've seen it when I've watched Rain Country's KZread channel and seen her demonstrate the break bleeder technique several times and, figured that if/when the power goes out, I'd still be able to vacuum seal my dehydrated foods. I have tried it several times when I've been to lazy to dig out my electric sealer and it works just as good as the electric one. What I also like about vacuum sealing my dry goods jars is that you can successfully use used lids. As long as they're not bent out of shape or damaged somehow. They don't have to go through the whole hot process in either water bath canning or pressure canning and hold the seals just as good as new lids. I've had stored for up to 2 years so far, without loosing a seal on a dehydrated jar. Thank you for a great tutorial on dehydrating mashed potato flakes! 🙏

After peeling which you’re doing the right way. I cut them in half length wise then use a mandolin slice 1/8 inch and blanch them, drain them then dehydrate them. You got dehydrated potato flakes. All your flakes will have the same consistency. Then vacuum seal in a mason jar.

They will taste just like what you made as mashed before dehydrating. Add milk, butter and seasonings of your choice. It’s approximately 1 part potato flakes to 2 parts liquid. That amount and how long it will need to cook to rehydrate will depend on how thin you spread the mixture when dehydrating.
Very informative
