Why Choose Freeze-Dried Foods from Mountain Fresh Farms?

Shelf Life

Moisture content directly impacts the shelf life of food. Dehydrated foods lose up to 90% of their moisture, while home dehydrators achieve about 80% moisture removal. High-quality dehydrated foods can last up to 15 years, sometimes reaching 25 years.

Freeze-dried foods, however, are optimal for long-term storage, boasting a shelf life of 25 years or more. For the best longevity, store freeze-dried foods in a cool, dark, and dry environment.

Preparation

Preparing freeze-dried foods is simple: just add water and enjoy once rehydrated. The taste closely resembles that of the original food.

Nutrition

Freeze-dried foods retain approximately 97% of their original nutrients, compared to 60-75% for dehydrated foods. This ensures that rehydrated freeze-dried food is as nutritious as its fresh counterpart.

Taste

Flavor plays a significant role in our food choices. Freeze-drying preserves more flavor, nutrients, texture, and aroma compared to dehydrating. Most people find freeze-dried food superior in taste.
