These are dehydrated foods. To learn more about what that means, click here.

These foods are not the "staples" of food storage, but if you HAD to live off what you had in your food storage, these products will add flavor and "normalcy" to your cooking.We've tried a few recipes and have started posting some on this blog. There are some using apple slices (click here to view) and ones that use potato flakes (click here). Of course you can just eat the dried apples right out of the can for a snack, and you can follow the directions to simply make instant mashed potatoes with the flakes, but we thought of a few more uses. This coming Sunday we'll have sampling of a few recipes, using all 4 of these products. And please, if you have any questions, contact Sister Hanamaikai. Thank you!
