Margaret took the boys over to her garden to pick potatoes and carrots with them and give Holly a much deserved break. Then she brought us a nice little box full of them. The boys had a great time picking them.
Since Holly is on a RAW food diet, she needed to have them prepared for eating tomorrow, which is not the easiest task, since she doesn’t like potatoes. So I sliced them up in the Cuisinart Special Edition Metal 14 cup processor…
Then soaked them in ACV, Apple Cider Vinegar (vinegar that has the ‘mother’ in it, but smells just as bad a vinegar), garlic, salt, and onions. Then I put them in the 12 drawer Excalibur variable temperature dehydrator at 135 degrees.
It’ll be interesting to see if they turned out okay in the morning. Initially, I only put in four drawers worth, but I’m going to go back and put the rest of the sliced ones in then hit the sack.
