Our Advantage
Storage | Freeze dried foods can be stored at room temperature (Dry & Cool place). No additional refrigerated storage required. |
Shelf life | Very long shelf life (20-30 years) even without any chemicals, preservatives or additives. |
Cost | The more advanced process typically costs slightly more than dehydrated counterparts. It is difficult to replicate at home. |
Nutrition | Retains most or all of the original nutrients of the fresh products including vitamins and minerals. Even active cultures in yogurt will be reanimated once reintroduced to liquid. |
Appearance | Tends to appear more like the fresh product and often retains its shape. When rehydrated, it may be difficult to distinguish between fresh and freeze dried. Color is naturally preserved and no dyes are needed. |
Taste | Will taste more like the fresh product. Because of the lack of water, food will taste more concentrated. Sweet will be sweeter, acidic will be more acidic, and so on. |
Texture | Crisp. Can be eaten in its dried state without issue. Rehydrates quickly in warm or cool water (or other liquid) and can be treated like fresh ingredients once rehydrated and drained. |
Rehydration | Rehydrates quickly in warm or cool water (or other liquid) and can be treated like fresh ingredients once rehydrated and drained. |
Ease of use | Just add into boiling water (easy and convenient). |
