Freeze-Dried Food

Freeze-dried food undergoes a process called lyophilization, where the food is first frozen and then exposed to a vacuum that removes most of its moisture through sublimation. This method preserves the food’s nutrients, flavor, and structure while significantly reducing its weight and shelf life without the need for preservatives. Because the moisture is removed, freeze-dried foods are lightweight, rehydrate quickly with water, and are ideal for long-term storage, camping, or emergency preparedness. The process maintains the food’s original qualities better than other preservation methods, making it a popular choice for maintaining nutrition and convenience.
