Although I have not used them for soup, I do believe if you soak them for a few hours then add them to the soup they should tender up enough. I cannot guarantee that they will serve well in a soup, I use mine to grow wheat grass to grind into juice. Let us know what and how it all turns out!

These are real dehydrated vegetables. I have used them three times in chicken and beef vegetable soups. I also add pearl barley, Harmony House minced cabbage and Harmony House dried Shallots. For me, I add a bit at a time...1 Tbspn to 1/8 cup measure depending on how much soup you are cooking. If I were you I would begin with small measurements with your recipes. I have 70-year old hands now and cutting up vegetables is hard for me. I LOVE this product and with my spices, my tweaks, and my kitchen love, my soups turn out great. . .so says my hubby of 50 years. Happy Cooking!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I can't see why not, as long as they're no boiling. Pureeing soup etc. would be fine. I like mine so far.

yes you can if it doesn't have sugar already in it. I made my first batch last night using frozen strawberries and it turned out GREAT. make sure they're completely thawed out before using.

Yes. You probably need to soak them for awhile to plump them up. I haven't tried it but read good comments about cooking the berries in sugar and cornstarch (a base of maybe water?) To thicken the filling up.

What I buy is the hard red winter wheat berries and it is good for making bread. You can make pie crusts and biscuits but they would be heavy. I would purchase the soft wheat berries for making those.

I tried these with Cosco soup and they will not work. It is too much soup for these bowls. The Crestware will only hold a little less than 8 oz's.

I have a recipe to make tomato soup concentrate with the clear jell before canning it. Then again another recipe says to add it when you open the jar to reheat(that ones for chicken pot pie filling though).

Yes you can eat 2 in the morning and two with food, they are sweet at first them a little bit bitter but you get use to the taste, eat 2 mid afternoon. Also you can add them to soup, stew, casserole and if you drie them you can use them in muffins. Try them at your own pace. Good Luck!

what I do is put some ina bowl withwater and microwave awhile till the water gets hot and then let them soak AND REHYDRATE. I USE THEM MOSTLY IN SOUPS FOR FLAVOR The dried shitake have more flavor than these...try making some mushroom barley soup.

Yes! This wonderful soup has alphabet-shaped pasta. It's great tasting; we always have it in the pantry, ready to mix with freshveggies. I use onion, carrots, mushrooms, kale, etc. Love it!

Yes you can use them to make a nice tea. If you have a tea ball you can put about 1tbs and let steep (after you add the hot water) about 5 mins. If you do not have a tea ball just let tea steep in cup and spoon out the berries. Adjust the the amount to you liking. Add honey and enjoy! :)

No - according to the instruction book, you can only do high-acid canning, such as tomatoes or pickles, and also jelly or jam.This is the same as the type of canning you can do with a hot water bath in an open pot on the stove. The book is very clear that you cannot use this for canning anything else - no vegetables or meats! The book is also very clear that you should ONLY use the 26 recipes included in the book and to not use your own recipes. Very, very limiting!

I haven't tried any of the small seeded berries, but there are instructions in the 'recipe booklet' for steaming them. It should work as long as you don't mash the berries after or while they are cooking. (You aren't supposed to mash any of the fruit while it is in the steam...unless you are intentionally trying to get some of the pulp.)

I'm not familiar with the texture of wheat berries. the only process similar that I've done is make almond milk, HOWEVER, it did NOT fully fine chop the almonds. Keep in mind, Almonds are very hard nuts so that may have played an important part in the end result. Just a suggestion, why not use the simple hand mill/coffee grinder (much more economical). They usually run about $15-$35Good Luck!

Yes you can....keep in mind these are the whites only so if you are looking for scrambled eggs....get another product....they work very well for Meringue!
