Due to the rapid influx of produce on the farm when a field ripens, Rahane is faced with a fortunate problem of food surplus. To deal with this, many of the crops are preserved by canning, jamming, pickling, or “zoodling”.
I’m still not sure if “the zoodler” is the correct name for this device but I like it. It rotates vegetables through a blade, cutting them into thin noodles. I spent a lot of time running squash through the device. You can’t see it in the photo, but the noodles are being collected in a large mixing bowl. When the bowl is full, I dumped the contents into hanging racks to dry. Over just a couple days, the noodles become dehydrated and crispy. They can be stored like this for long periods.
Whenever you desire some squash noodles, simply rehydrate them in water and add whatever spices and veggies you like. We cooked up a bunch of zucchini noodles and they were delicious! We also added fresh noodles into salads.
