What is Freeze-Drying?
|
| |
Freeze-dried products make up the majority of ingredients used for Gourmet
Reserves. For instant or quick rehydration of certain dried foods and for products
which retain their shape and texture, freeze-drying is the preferred method.
The first step in freeze-drying is to rapidly freeze the food. The water content,
now frozen, is turned directly into a gas and withdrawn from the food during
the next steps, vacuum and heat, thus avoiding the shrinkage. Freeze-drying
uses a very low heat temperature. Many of Gourmet Reserves products are custom
freeze-dried to suit our strict quality requirements. Freeze-dried products
include: grains, beans, fruits, meats, seafood, pastas, vegetables, and eggs.
Using this process, 98% of the moisture is removed.
Key advantages of freeze-dried products:
- Retains the original taste and nutritional value of the food due to very
low heat temperature that is used
- Foods are quick and easy to prepare
- No waste
- Ideal method for maintaining flavors of meat, poultry and fish
- Extends the shelf life of the product
- No preservatives are necessary
- Results in a super-lightweight /compact product
- A wide variety of foods are available
- Use hot or cold water to rehydrate
