Benefits of Freeze Dried Foods

Extended Shelf Life

Moisture content significantly impacts shelf life. Higher moisture results in a shorter shelf life. Dehydrated foods can lose up to 90% of their moisture, with top-end dehydrated products maintaining a shelf life up to 15 years, or even 25 years for some types. Freeze-dried foods, however, can last 25 years or more when stored in cool, dark, and dry conditions.

Preparation and Convenience

Freeze-dried foods are simple to rehydrate by adding water, resulting in a taste so close to the original. Dehydrated foods usually need to be boiled for about 20 minutes to rehydrate. This process may vary depending on the food type.

Nutritional Value

Freeze-drying efficiently retains about 97% of the original nutrients, making the rehydrated food comparable to its fresh counterpart. Dehydrated foods, on the other hand, retain only 60-75% of their original nutrients.

Superior Taste

Both freeze-dried and dehydrated foods offer good flavor, but freeze-dried foods preserve more nutrients, flavor, and texture. Being less impacted by heat, freeze-dried foods maintain their natural aroma and are often preferred in taste tests over dehydrated options.
