About Freeze Dried
Freeze drying, also known as lyophilisation or
cryodesiccation, is a low temperature dehydration process that involves
freezing the product, lowering pressure, then removing the ice by sublimation.
This is in contrast to dehydration by most conventional methods that evaporate
water using heat.
Freeze drying results in a high quality product because of
the low temperature used in processing. The original shape of the product is
maintained and quality of the rehydrated product is excellent. Primary
applications of freeze drying include biological , biomedical food processing
and preservation.
This process enables the storage of food 10x longer
than regular dehydration. Healthy, Light weight 98% preservation of vitamins
and 100% of minerals are kept in the preservation process.
