Autumn is a busy time in any garden with crops to bring in and process. This year we added a Excalibur food dehydrator to our ever expanding appliances. We ordered it too late to process the nectarines, plums and apples, but we did manage to dry our herbs and now we have enough rosemary, sage, parsley, basil mint, mint and Vietnamese mint to make several jars of herbal stock substitute to last several months

The results are much nicer than any store bought stock mix. I add dried onion and garlic along with the herbs and one teaspoon of salt.
