Title: Re: Dehydrated Chicken Post by CanoePam on May 3rd, 2004 at 9:23pm
I'll put my 2 cents in too.
What type of chicken did you start with? Canned chicken. How did you do it (dehydrator, oven, or other)? Dehydrator What setting did you use on the above appliance? Relatively high, but I can't remember the specific value How did the chicken rehydrate (hot or cold water, how long)? If in hot water, maybe 30 minutes. Cold water maybe 45. I know I"ll be using it in hot meals so it will finish rehydrating as the rest of the dish is cooking. How would you rate the quality of the end product? Indistinguishable from canned chicken in a finished meal. I don't know if that is the way we dehydrate or the way we hydrate it though! What sorts of meals do you use it in? The favorite camping food of my kids is called "Camp Food" (imagine that!). It is some type of rice dish (I particularly like Uncle Ben's original wild rice or Lipton's Chicken and Broccoli), canned chicken, and miscellaneous dried veggies as appropriate to the flavor. I keep an assortment of sweet peppers, celery, mushrooms, carrots, onions, garlic, and sometimes peas or corn available and just see what looks good. After it cooks, we sometimes use cayenne pepper to spice things up. I've got some recipes that use chicken with rice salads for trail lunches (similar to the Cache Lake products), and I'm going to try at least one of them this summer. Most of the time our lunch is cheese, crackers, and salami or summer sausage. Pam |
