    Congratulations, Jen, on accomplishing something that’s very intimidating to me, at least!  I, too, have been wanting a freeze drier but am afraid to buy one as they are really expensive and I don’t know if I’ll be able to freeze dry enough to make it worth it with trying to juggle homeschooling and all the other things to keep up with, with having a big family. I suppose it would be a good homeschooling project though for the kids to help out with. If we do purchase one, I’ll know who to go to with questions 😉.
    I understand about feeling intimidated by it. Thankfully my husband did most all of the setup and initially figured things out for me... then "trained" me on it. :laugh1: I am not a technical person at all.  If it weren't for him "holding my hand" so to speak I doubt I would have got started with a freeze dryer.

    Yes!!! I dehydrate eggs as well but freeze drying is the preferred method (as always). You can dry them raw or scrambled, but they are less grainy dried raw- you just have to make sure you cook them upon reconstitution to avoid salmonella.
    There are so many ways to freeze dry eggs, it's so neat. One very popular way is to mix the eggs like you'd do for scrambled eggs and put them in the freeze dryer raw. When they are done, you can buzz them in the mixer to make a powder. It's a very effective way to preserve a lot of food into a small space that's for sure!
