At some point, it happens to anyone who has lots of chickens…..you have lots of eggs in the fridge because the girls are going like gangbusters and you can't seem to use those eggs fast enough. Dehydrating 101 Series: Finding More Uses for Eggs Sure, you can give some away, do a ton of baking that you may not really want to do, or just hope that they will hold in the fridge for a while. You could even freeze some or come up with different egg recipes. But, did you ever think about dehydrating your egg overload? Supplies: dehydrator or oven parchment paper or fruit leather tray inserts eggs Using A Dehydrator If you have a dehydrator, it is quite easy to do. (You could probably also do the same in a low, slow oven, but I have issues with starting a big oven for hours over end when a dehydrator will be more efficient and won't put your oven out of commission.) It is easiest if you have fruit leather tray inserts to use for this project. I do have these for one of my dehydrators (I have 4 machines- all different types), but because many readers may not, I am showing the use of parchment paper instead.   Using Parchment Paper When using parchment paper, be sure that you cut out the area of your heat source, so that the paper does not cover and block it. This is very important. Also, make sure that you allow enough extra paper on the edges of your tray(s) so that the egg doesn't seep under the paper and drip into the bottom of the dehydrator.   Step 1: Break Fresh Eggs Break fresh eggs into a bowl. The number will depend on the size of your eggs and what your tray can hold. A good starting place is 4-6.   Step 2: Scramble Well Scramble WELL, making sure the eggs are thoroughly mixed. (If you do not mix well, the dried product may come out a bit greasy.) Do not add anything to the eggs if your goal is pure egg powder.   Step 3: Pour Egg Mixture Carefully pour the mixture onto the parchment (or fruit leather insert) covered tray. Set your temperature if your machine has that capability (I have been using 129 degrees), cover and let it go.   Step 4: Remove When Dry And Crumbly Once the egg is thoroughly dry and crumbly, it is ready to remove from the tray. Crumble into small pieces or grind into a powder. Store in an airtight container in a cool, dry place. To reconstitute: 1 part dry to 3 parts water = 1 egg. Note that if you do find that your egg is a bit greasy, they are still salvageable. Blot the egg “sheets” with a paper towel, and let sit in a dust-free area to air dry. Repeat blotting if necessary. It can take a day to a week for the oils to dry. OurHalfAcreHomestead shows us a video on dehydrating raw eggs:  Powdered eggs are great to have on hand, especially for an emergency. And it gives you a way to save those excess eggs that you fear may go to waste! Oh, and those egg shells…..let them dry, then put them back into the carton and use each half as a mini seed planter. When the seedling appears, you will be able to plant shell and all right into the garden. Or crush the shells and add to the garden. Or grind finely and add to your chicken's grit. As long as the shells are finely ground, the birds will not get into the habit of going after their eggs because they won't realize that there is egg shell in the mix!Have you tried making your own pickled cactus?   Let us know your kitchen secrets in the comments below! Aside from dehydrating eggs, do you know other usages for eggs?

J.D. Vance Proved That Republicans Should Ignore Democrat Attacks

After former President Donald Trump declared victory last week, the value of Bitcoin, gold, and various stocks skyrocketed. Financial expert and author of “MoneyGPT” James Rickards knows why. “The immediate reaction to the Trump election was stocks took off, and with good reason. His economic policies, less regulation, drill baby drill, basically getting rid of wasteful investment in what I call the ‘Green New Scam,’” Rickards tells Jill Savage and Stu Burguiere on “Blaze News Tonight.” “So he has a lot of things that are going to be very good for stocks. However, there’s something bigger than Trump. There’s something bigger than the electoral process, which is the economy itself,” he continues, noting that in the next six to nine months, we may be going through a recession. “There are a lot of signs of recession out there, so we may get off to a rough start, but the same thing happened to Ronald Reagan in 1982. He had one of the worst recessions in U.S. history but finished with very strong growth toward the end of his first term and into a second term,” he explains. While Rickards believes that Trump’s presidency will overall be a good thing for the economy, he isn’t so sure about Bitcoin as a form of currency in general. “I’ve studied Bitcoin for a long time,” Rickards says. “If you want to buy Bitcoin, knock yourself out. But I don’t really think of it as a form of money.” “It’s really just a form of gambling. I don’t really think of it as an investment. There’s no use case for Bitcoin. Now, can you make money? Absolutely, a lot of people have. So my attitude is I’m not a Bitcoin-basher,” he adds. As for gold, Rickards explains that the value of it isn’t actually getting higher. “It’s not that gold’s getting higher, it’s that the dollar is collapsing in front of your eyes,” Rickards says. “What’s really happening is you’re watching your dollar evaporate. You’re watching the dollar crash.” “The main reason is people are looking for alternatives to the dollar. I’m not saying the dollar is going away. You can’t totally get out of the dollar. It’s too big for that,” he adds.

Authorities were baffled by a series of supposed “bear attacks” on luxury cars in California earlier this year.There were deep claw marks on the interiors of the vehicles and even video evidence of the alleged beast doing damage. However, investigators soon realized that the "bear attacks" were not what they seemed.The three insurance companies claimed they were defrauded of $141,839 because of the alleged insurance-fraud scheme. An insurance claim was made regarding an alleged "bear attack" on a 2010 Rolls Royce Ghost on Jan. 28 in Lake Arrowhead — an unincorporated community in the San Bernardino mountains. The reported animal was said to have caused interior damage to the vehicle.The California Department of Insurance said in a statement that there were two other insurance claims on the same date of loss and in the same location. The "bear" was said to have attacked a 2015 Mercedes G63 AMG and a 2022 Mercedes E350. This raised eyebrows with insurance officials. The people who made the claims included surveillance video of the alleged "bear" attacks.Investigators reviewed the videos and noticed the bear looked rather peculiar. The California Department of Insurance asked a biologist from the California Department of Fish and Wildlife to review the three alleged "bear attack" videos — and the biologist quickly got to the bottom of it.“Upon further scrutiny of the video, the investigation determined the bear was actually a person in a bear costume,” the California Department of Insurance wrote.Law enforcement executed a search warrant, and detectives found the bear costume in one of the suspect's homes. The bear costume included metal claws that reportedly were used to damage the luxury cars.The California Department of Insurance, the Glendale Police Department, and the California Highway Patrol ascertained that four suspects were involved in the alleged insurance fraud scam. Police arrested Ruben Tamrazian — a 26-year-old from Glendale; Ararat Chirkinian — a 39-year-old from Glendale; Vahe Muradkhanyan — a 32-year-old from Glendale; and Alfiya Zuckerman — a 39-year-old from Valley Village. All four suspects have been charged with insurance fraud and conspiracy.The three insurance companies claimed they were defrauded of $141,839 over the alleged scheme. The San Bernardino County District Attorney’s Office is prosecuting the case.Like Blaze News? Bypass the censors, sign up for our newsletters, and get stories like this direct to your inbox.
