Vegetable seasoning

The flavor enhancers we usually use at home contain glutamate, a lot of salt and other preservatives that are dangerous for our health. With the LIFE blast chiller, you can prepare your own flavor enhancer by dehydrating organic vegetables and using very little salt! It will add flavor and value to meats, risottos, soups and stews!

INGREDIENTS

200 g carrots
200 g pumpkin
200 g tomato
200 g celery
200 g red onion
100 g fresh porcini mushrooms
30 g fine salt
20 g garlic
20 g parsley
rosemary
sage
bay leaf
black pepper

PREPARATION Wash all vegetables and herbs and dry them with paper or cloth until every drop of water is removed. Thinly slice the carrots, pumpkin, tomato, celery, onion, garlic, and mushrooms. Strip the rosemary, keeping only the needles and discarding the woody part of the stem. If you cannot find fresh porcini mushrooms, you can use dried ones. Spread the sliced vegetables and herbs on baking sheets or LIFE racks covered with parchment paper. Be very careful not to overlap the slices, as this will make dehydration faster and the result better. Start the PRESERVATION cycle at +45° with 100% ventilation. The program should last at least 24 hours. The time may vary depending on the thickness of the vegetable slices and the amount of water they contain. If you notice that something is not perfectly dried, you can extend the cycle. Once drying is complete, remove everything and let it cool at room temperature for 5 minutes. In a mixer, combine the dried vegetables, herbs, mushrooms, salt, and pepper, and blend until you get a fine powder. Store the seasoning in a 250 ml glass jar in a dry place.
