@theoldgoatsfarm: Thanks to @Amy Huller ✝️ for the produce! ✨ Pantry magic in the making! ✨ I dehydrated fresh speckled butter beans so we can enjoy it all year long. 🌱🫘 A little time now means homemade soups, stews, and side dishes are only minutes away this winter. Nothing beats preserving the goodness of summer! quick how-to: • shell and rinse beans • blanch for 2–3 minutes, then cool in an ice bath for 5 minutes • spread in a single layer on dehydrator trays • dry at 125–135°F until fully hard and brittle, usually 8-12 hours, mine took 10 hours • store in airtight jars in a cool, dark place Do you freeze your butter beans or dehydrate them? 👇 #theoldgoatsfarm #homesteading #foodpreservation #dehydrating #speckledbutterbeans
