Why Opt for Freeze-Dried Foods by Augason Farms?
Extended Shelf Life
Lower moisture content directly impacts the shelf life of food. Dehydrated food can lose up to 90% of its moisture, helping it last up to 15 years, and sometimes even 25 years, depending on the type of food. Although home dehydrators often only remove 80% of the water, professional-grade dehydrated food generally lasts longer. Freeze-dried foods, on the other hand, can last for 25 years or more, making them ideal for long-term storage. Ensure to keep them in a cool, dark, and dry place to maximize their shelf life.
How to Prepare Freeze-Dried Foods
Preparation of freeze-dried food involves simply adding water and waiting for it to rehydrate. The taste remains remarkably close to fresh food. In contrast, dehydrated food often needs boiling for around 20 minutes to rehydrate, depending on the food type.
Nutritional Value
Freeze-dried foods retain about 97% of their original nutrients, making them almost as nutritious as fresh food once rehydrated. Dehydrated foods, however, retain only 60-75% of their original nutrients.
Flavor and Aroma
Taste is essential when it comes to food. Freeze-dried products excel in preserving flavor, texture, and aroma. They maintain almost the same quality as fresh food. On the contrary, dehydrating food involves heat, which can degrade flavor, nutrients, and texture. Freeze-dried food is often considered superior in taste.
