The Freeze Drying Process
- During the freeze-drying process, ice crystals in the food are sublimated (evaporated) into water vapour within a vacuum chamber. This results in a dry product that maintains its shape and does not shrink during drying.
- When rehydrated, the water fills the pores left by the ice crystals, restoring the food’s original texture and making it juicy and tender.
- The food is heat-sealed in foil pouches, with all air removed and replaced by nitrogen gas to pack them tightly. This process preserves the food’s safety and flavour.
- Back Country Cuisine meals are carefully prepared to meet the high energy demands of outdoor activities. Our products contain a balanced mix of essential nutrients for a healthy diet, including carbohydrates and sugars for immediate energy, protein to help repair muscles, and oils and fats to keep you feeling full longer.
Benefits
- Freeze drying removes the moisture from food making it much lighter and easier to carry.
- Freeze drying retains the natural vitamins in the food because of the low temperatures used in processing
- Along with naturally occurring minerals and the addition of salt, the freeze dried meals provide vitamins and minerals necessary to meet the high energy needs of outdoor activity
- Flushed with nitrogen gas when packed, freeze dried products have a long shelf life, meaning you can have meals on hand at any time
- Food does not shrink during the freeze drying process, or inside the pouch
How to prepare the freeze dried meals
- Simply add the required amount of hot or cold water stated on the back of each meal pouch
