Why not zest the lemon peel first? You could add it to the liquid or freeze dry it on its own.

I love the bloopers left in! You’re human!!! 😂
(I always get milk powder up my nose!)

I really enjoyed this video. I especially loved the music and music volume in the background. You always make me laugh outloud 😂

I’d love to make my own citric acid as an ingredient for sodium citrate and use this for freeze dried cheese sauce!

[bettyalford]

I use it in my homemade, hygiene, cleaning and laundry supplies. Its great in the face wash if you have acne. Orange peels and banana peels for toothpaste they whiten.

Next up: Freeze dried BBQ sauce powder. I'm also wondering if thin slicing potatoes, freeze dry, then fry in oil would make a good chip. Sprinkle with BBQ sauce powder and snack away.

I've used orange peels & apple cider vinegar to make a really wonderful kitchen cleaner.
I wonder if lemon peels will work similarly?

[TheShyButterfly]

Great video 😊 Can it be done in a dehydrater ? Same process?

Thanks for the content. If you were to make a single glass of lemonade, how much powder do you recommend using?

I noticed you did not include the lemon zest in your lemon powder. Was this deliberate?

Maybe have a margarita with your salad...? 😋🍹🥗 Lol. Yes, not really a recipe. But it can be nice to have the "recipe" as a reference, so thanks for taking the time to do that. Haven't FD'd lemons for lemon powder yet. But I do love lemons and all citrus, even when it can "wasabi" me, haha. 🧡🍋🍊💛 I'm prepping some grapefruit slices for the FD now and will probably go on a lemon run next.

One other thing to look into ~ in your spare time ~ is Pectic Enzyme to remove most of the white pith from citrus. The Inquisitive Farmwife made a video last year, showing how she used it prior to waterbath canning mandarin oranges. It works GREAT. It's an extra step, extra time, maybe too fiddly for some folks. But the results for canning are outstanding, so I'm trying it now to see if it makes a difference in the end product for freeze drying. One container is probably more than a lifetime supply, as you only need about 1/8 to 1/4 teaspoon of powder per quart of citrus slices (in water) to "wear down" the pith. Anyway, thanks for another fun video! 🍋🍋💖😄👍

Hello, how many times do you use the freeze dryer in a week?

[Seiaeka]

You should zest those lemons first and freeze-dry the zest too!

[MDDxe]

Can i freeze dry the lemon peels in another tray?

[acs]

First time watcher..enjoyed your video. I've been looking at freeze dryers then I noticed the lines/cable/stuff attached to the freeze dryer..How much space am I going to need and what's all the connectors? Ty

[debm]

Just found your channel and I love this idea of lemons! I can't afford a vitamix right now but I do have a high end ninja. Would that still work to help with the seeds or no? I know you mention you'd used one before.

[sq]

Would you mind sharing WHERE you got those trays? Thanks

[rebeccapeery]

Is it shelf stable after freez drying?

[AllOuttaSpoons]

You used the standard temps or adjusted them down? Mine keeps burning each time I try lemons.
