I was watching a foraging video on making dandelion pesto, and the person mentioned using "soaked and dried" nuts (unroasted) or seeds for the recipe.
I had to google it, and yes there are video's on doing this process. Apparently, it helps you digest them, brings out their flavor and nutrition.
I did not even know that re-usable freezer bags, that use a handheld tool, existed. The tool removes the air from the bag. They re-seal and are washable. I bought one (not the one I wanted, as I don't think it is being made anymore), but trying it out to see if the bags keep the air out after months of being in the fridge. I hope it works out well. I just put hot peppers in the freezer. I can take out a bit, re-seal and put back in the freezer. I love the fact that it will cut back what I spend on ziploc bags.
I'm not one for many gadgets and gizmos these days, but that looks really useful! Please do give us a review after you've had a chance to use it awhile.
ReplyDeleteLeigh, I will. I wanted a different brand, but it appears they are not making them after 2020 shut down many businesses. I hope these hold out the air for several months.
ReplyDeleteI have a large bag sealer but this one looks nifty. Have a good week.
ReplyDeleteThat looks very interesting. I will be waiting for your take on how well it works.
ReplyDeleteGod bless.
Lisa, I learned about it from America's test kitchen, but the one they recommended was a repeat show, and no longer made. I picked this one based on reviews. I hope it lasts a long time. It was not that expensive either.
ReplyDeleteThanks Jackie, I am testing it out on hot peppers right now.
