Using Dried Corn

By Claudia Botzet

Corn is a nutrient dense food full of vitamins and minerals and can be dried using food preservation methods of sun-drying, solar-drying, or using a dehydrator. When dried, corn is lightweight and does not need to be refrigerated for storage. A half cup of dried corn will re-hydrate to yield one cup. Dried corn can be used in soups and stews, eaten as a snack, or ground as cornmeal.

Video: Dry Farming, Deer Fencing, and Cover Crops in the Paths with Eric Nordell

We cover: today I am so excited to share this conversation with my buddy Eric Nordell of Beech Grove Farm in Pennsylvania to chat about, well, a lot of things. Eric and his wife Anne have run beech grove farm since 1983 and they do things a little differently (like farming with horses) but they dry farm which we discuss, they use some cover crops in the paths in interesting ways (also discussed) and in fact, we get into a whole digression about their deer fencing that you’re gonna wanna hear.
