My wife made a killer potato soup with all fresh ingredients. I decided to dehydrate some in my dehydrator. A good 12 hrs later it is totally dried out. So I hydrate it with boiling water. 20 minutes later its all soft and ready to eat. It had the consistency of grainy instant potatoes and a sort of plastic funky taste. I think I could eat it but it isnt near as good as the original. Am I missing something here or should I expect rehydrated soups to taste like this? thanx, bill
