Another option might be to steam them and then dehydrate. Interesting idea with collards. I've never thought about that before. We plant turnips in the garden for the greens. I may try to figure out how to use them in dehydrated meals. |

I've had success blanching (30sec) and dehydrating kale. It's tough enough to hold some of its shape. I usually mix the kale flakes with something bland like couscous - lessens the punch of the kale. The dried kale might work well in an ova-easy egg omelet - if I make a bag of dried kale and freeze it my family steals it all for that. Eggs, kale, parmesan, maybe bacon bits. I've also had success blanching (30sec) and lightly chopping spinach in a blender with some tomato sauce and water. Then spread that liquid on deydrator liquid teay and dry it (don't be afraid to add liquid. It actually makes the concoction dry faster because you can spread thinner). You can mix that dried mixture with cooked and dehydrated chickpeas/garbonzo beans. I forget what I added for spices, but there are lots of Indian chickpea spinach curries on the web. |
