About Freeze Dried Foods
Freeze dried foods are considered to be the best dehydrated forms of food because their texture and taste are retained after rehydration. Foods that can be freeze dried include vegetables, fruits, meat, fish, and dairy products. Companies such as Nestlé uses the freeze-dried technology to produce baby foods. Freeze drying of foods is done by a process called lyophilization. This process lowers the atmospheric temperature of the food to below 32°F, and then high-pressure vacuum is applied to extract the water content in the form of vapor droplets. The vapor then collects in a condenser, which turns it back to ice and removes it. Finally, a gradual increase in the temperature helps to extract all the remaining moisture from the product. This process retains the physical structure of the food product and preserves it for re-hydration later.
