Dried Collard Greens

Today was for dehydrating some collard greens.

I harvested a beautiful arm full, washed them...

...blanched them, and laid them on the racks...

...and - on a day like today - let them dry in the sun. Once they’re blanched they dry pretty quick. I give them a finish in the dehydrator before jarring them up.

This is our second batch for the season. I love having dried collards and kale on hand throughout the winter to add to all manner of food preparations.

Peace. 🕊
