Freeze-dried fruit is fruit that has been vacuum-dried. The fruit is placed in a frozen vacuum machine and the water changes from solid to vapor, leaving it the same size, color and with all its organoleptic properties.
The advantage of this type of process (sublimation) over fruit dehydrated in an oven or by hot slow ventilation, is that the fruit doesn’t cook, so it retains all its nutritional characteristics as if it were fresh.
Freeze-dried fruit is dehydrated, but by a process of sublimation, i.e. the water in the fruit goes from a solid to a gaseous state without needing to be heated. In the case of fruit dehydrated by the conventional process (hot slow ventilation), the water is released as the fruit is heated. In this way, the fruit cooks slowly, which is why its color is slightly beige or dark, as if burnt and shrunken.
Freeze-drying is more expensive, but it’s healthier!
