Dehydration – preserving food
Thousands of years ago, one of the few ways people had to preserve foods was by laying them out
to dry in the sun. Before such modern appliances as refrigerators and before chemical preservatives,
dehydration was an easy way to safely store foods for use at a late time, when food was scarce or not
in season. Your new food dehydrator applies modern science to this ancient art to bring you a controlled,
predictable and safe way to preserve foods at home.
Dehydrating food opens a new dimension in preserving fruits, vegetables and meats to you. Your new
food dehydrator will be able to perfectly capture the fresh-picked in-season flavor and nutrition of almost
any food for out-of-season eating enjoyment. These dried foods can be more easily stored because they
are less likely to spoil and they take up less room as well. They also weigh less making them perfect
for camping or backpacking meals. Dried fruit snacks are delicious and nutritious. Ingredients for your
favourite soup recipes can be dried and stored which also make great last-minute meals, ready to cook.
Your dehydrator unit keeps food in the drying chamber at a computer controlled constant temperature.
Food is bathed in constant stream of warm dry air which gently removes the moisture from the food.
The result is beautifully dried food every time.
You will find that drying food is practical and economical as well as easy.
And it all starts with your state-of-the-art food dehydrator.
What is dehydration?
Dehydration refers to a process in which moisture is removed from food allowing the dried food to be stored
safety for later use. Its main benefit over other, such ancient methods such as salting or smoking, is that it
adds no flavours and removes few nutrients from the food being dehydrated.
When done properly, few nutrients are lost during dehydration. According to the Food and Drug Admini-
stration (FDA), dehydrating retains 95 - 97% of the nutrients in the original food. In contrast, canning only
preserves 20 - 30% and freezing only retains 40 - 60% of the food´s nutrition. Dehydrated food tastes good
too! Since natural flavours concentrate as you remove moisture, the dried product is naturally delicious.
As you will soon learn, reconstitution is an integral part of dehydration. Reconstitution refers to the adding
of water to the dried food. When allowed to soak in water, dried food absorbs the water and swells
back to its original size, shape and texture while retaining nearly 100% of its original flavour and
nutrition.
