Calling all my fellow food preservation rebels... I am officially running on fumes! 🧄
I just wrapped up a brutal two-day marathon of dehydrating garlic, grinding it down to a mince, and sifting it into powder. And let's not even talk about the months of planting, growing, harvesting, hang-drying, and prepping that came before it!
I’ve preserved a literal ton of food over my lifetime—veggies, fruits, pastas, meats, you name it. I regularly dehydrate my own basil, parsley, oregano, chives, dill, and more. But for the love of all things holy, this had better be the absolute best garlic powder on the planet to justify the sheer amount of work it required!
Help an exhausted lady out—how are y’all handling your garlic? Is there some secret, faster way to get the same results? Because if not, I might just surrender and stick to buying it at the store next time.
I’m off to take a much-needed nap because my garlic has left me feeling a little abused. Let me know your tricks in the comments!
