I still kind of want to buy a freeze dryer. They are fucking expensive though.

From the post:

>Summer has settled upon the northern hemisphere, which means that it’s time for sweet, sweet strawberries to be cheap and plentiful. But would you believe they taste even better in freeze-dried format? I wouldn’t have ever known until I happened to get on a health kick and was looking for new things to eat. I’m not sure I could have picked a more expensive snack, but that’s why we’re here — I wanted to start freeze-drying my own strawberries.

I think this method is closer to desiccation without heat than it is to real freeze drying. You can make beef jerky without heat by constantly circulating cool dry around around the meet, but it is not the same as freeze drying meat. The freezing and vacuum sublimation process is critical to the freeze drying outcome and can't be replicated by simple desiccation. That's why freeze dryers are expensive. It's much more than this method is able to accomplish.
