No Bake Pumpkin Pie Freeze Dried Or Not

I am so excited to share this video. This is a No Bake Pumpkin Pie made without eggs. Instead we use Agar Agar Powder. The results are amazing. You can make this fresh and not freeze dry but of course I had to take it a step further and freeze dry and reconstitute a whole pie!

 

Ingredients

1 29 oz can of Pure Pumpkin
2 12 oz cans of Evaporated Milk
1 1/2 Cups Granulated Sugar
1 tsp Salt
2 tsp Ground Cinnamon
1 tsp Ground Ginger
1/2 tsp Ground Cloves

1 Cup Water
8 tsp Agar Agar Powder

2 9 inch pre maid graham cracker pie crusts.

 Procedure

In large bowl Combine Pumpkin Milk Sugar Salt Cinnamon Ginger and Cloves. Mix well.

In a separate bowl add water and Agar Agar Powder. Mix well and let sit for 1 minute.

In pot add pumpkin mixture and agar mixture, stir well
On high heat bring to a boil stirring constantly. It should bubble immediately when you stop stirring.

If eating fresh pour mixture into crusts

If freeze drying pour mixture into FD tray this will fill 2 trays of 4 cups each and make 2 pies after reconstitution. After freeze Drying powder in blender or vitamixer and package. To reconstitute add 1 trays worth of powder to pot. Stir in 3 cups of water. Bring to boil as before. Pour reconstituted/boiled mixture into 1 pie crust.

Enjoy

Corn Chowder Freeze Dried

2 chopped onions
2 cans of cream style corn
2 cans of whole kernel sweet corn undrained

1 tsp Worcestershire sauce

1 tsp pepper
1 2 lb bag of frozen hash browns (unseasoned and thawed)

Hawaiian Beef Pot Roast

This pot roast came out Delicious. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did!

Ingredients:

1 Chopped Onion (I used purple onion)
4 Sliced Carrots
1 20 oz can Crushed Pineapple (un drained)
1/2 Cup Brown Sugar (packed)
1/4 Cup Soy Sauce
1 TBSP chopped fresh ginger
1 tsp Black Pepper
2 TBSP minced garlic
1 12 oz bottle Heinz Chili Sauce
1 15 oz bottle of Kikkoman Teriyaki Marinade & Sauce
2 cups vegetable broth

3 1/2 lb Lean Top Round Roast

3 lbs red potatoes (diced into small pieces)



Directions:

Combine all ingredients except the beef and potatoes in a large Crock pot and mix well. Place Roast into Crock pot. Cook on low for 5 hours.
Add Potatoes and continue to cook for a further 3 hours. When cooled down shred beef and mix well. For best results place in refrigerator overnight. The next day skim any fat that has solidified on top. Place pot roast into molds. Freeze in your freezer until frozen solid. Remove from molds and place on Freeze Dryer trays. Freeze dry. This was a long run for me (probably because of the pineapple) so count on a 40 hour run.

Enjoy!
