Notes
Shredded Carrots: Shreds can be blanched for 2 min to help retain color, but is not necessary. However, they may begin to turn white after a few months.To Rehydrate Carrots:Soak in water for a few hours, or in a simmering pot of water or broth for 15-20 min. Carrots will still need time to cook in your dish if you do a short rehydrate.Condition: Place food into a large glass jar, shake once a day for a week to check for any signs of moisture buildup or sticking that isn't released by an easy shake of the jar. If you find signs, put it back into the dehydrator to dry more. Storage: Store in an airtight container for up to two years in a dark, cool, dry place.
