We Are Alive! December 26th, 2024 Raisins

My experiment was a success! One of the bounties that we received from Forgotten Harvest is a large number of grapes. We have to use them quickly before they go bad or moldy. We thought of some ideas: freeze them, juice them or maybe... dehydrate them!

I placed them evenly on the dehydrating tray and let them dry over night. I check on them and they are still looking too juicy. I dehydrated another evening and they still look like grapes. But I dehydrated them one more night and...

It's amazing watching grapes turn into raisins, in my mind they are two different things - but the reality is that raisins are just dehydrated grapes.

But these are raisins like I've never had before. They're very sweet and tender, not very dry, sort of like dried cherries, but with a different and very pleasant flavor.

With this success, I'm going to try again with a new batch of grapes.

Teach Your Children Liberty from Sin

We encourage parents to teach their children principles of Godliness, beginning with the Word and an understanding who God is and what His Son has done to form a relationship with us.

No one can lay a foundation other than the one already laid, which is Jesus Christ. If anyone builds on this foundation using gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, or straw, his workmanship will be evident, because the Day will bring it to light. It will be revealed with fire, and the fire will prove the quality of each man’s work. 1 Corinthians 3:11-13

Teach Your children Liberty from Tyranny

Second to this is the principle of self-determination and freedom, lest we loose the ability to teach our children the first principle in future generations.

Our children read the Tuttle Twin books, specifically to learn libertarian principles, which most people learn later in life. These books are useful for our family, and yours, to teach children concepts that seem complicated, but are made simple in these books.

I am an affiliate for Libertas Publishing, your purchase will help our family grow financially.

I love to eat raisins. Maybe I'd try your experiment too but it's cheaper to buy raisins here than grapes πŸ˜€

Yes, raisins are much cheaper than grapes: but when you're given free grapes, gotta do something with them before they go bad. But then there's the electricity cost...

At first I was just glad to not have them sit around until thrown away, now I'm really glad I dehydrated them, best raisins I've ever tried.

0.00000000 BEE

As you say, your, experiment turned out very well, I, on the other hand, have never in my life dehydrated anything.

It's really something. I'm really glad I was able to preserve them for long-term storage and they won't become compost! !BBH

It's good to hear that your experiment was a success. Best of luck for the next batch of grapes.

How did you do that? Did you put them outside under the Sun? Do you even have Sun there nowadays? Or, all snow?

0.00130648 BEE

We dried them indoors in the dehydrator. It's pretty cold outside and the sun is far away from us right now. !BBH
