Why Choose Freeze-Dried Foods Like Augason Farms?

Shelf Life

There is a direct relationship between moisture content and shelf life. Higher moisture content results in a shorter shelf life. Dehydrated food loses significant moisture—up to 90%! While home dehydrators typically remove 80% of water, reducing shelf life, high-quality dehydrated foods can last up to 15 years, sometimes reaching 25 years depending on the food type.

Freeze-dried food is ideal for long-term storage, offering a shelf life of 25 years or more. Cooler temperatures further extend shelf life. Store freeze-dried food in a cool, dark, and dry location whenever possible to maximize longevity.

Preparation of Freeze-Dried Food Like Augason Farms

Preparing freeze-dried food is simple: add water and wait for it to rehydrate. The food will taste remarkably close to its original state, making it hard to distinguish from fresh food.

Nutrition

Freeze-dried foods retain most of their nutrients throughout the process. Once rehydrated, they are nutritionally similar to their fresh equivalents. Dehydrated foods retain 60?75% of their original nutrients, whereas freeze-dried foods retain about 97%.

Taste

Taste is crucial when it comes to food. If it doesn’t taste good, there’s little motivation to eat it. Both freeze-dried and dehydrated foods can be delicious, but freeze-drying preserves more nutrients and maintains the original flavor, texture, and aroma. Dehydration involves heat, which can cause a loss of flavor, nutrients, and texture. Many prefer freeze-dried food for its superior taste and quality.
