A good way to use freeze-dried vegetables is in everyday recipes. Experiment with adding freeze-dried vegetables, such as corn, to your favorite recipes. And it's not just the freeze-dried corn that can be added to this recipe. You can use other freeze-dried ingredients - the egg and buttermilk from the recipe below could also be reconstituted and added. A great (and fun!) way to see if something will work is to experiment.
