Patented technology preserves the taste, nutrition, and texture of nearly any food for up to 25 years. Perfect for freeze drying fruits, vegetables, meats, dairy products, meals, desserts, and more.
As a food preservation method, it is easier than canning and dehydrating and will last 7 to 8 times longer. Just put your leftover meals and ripening fruits, vegetables, meats, and dairy in your own freeze dryer and press start. In about 20 to 36 hours, your food is ready to be packaged for a shelf life of up to 25 years.
Freeze drying is remarkable because it causes no damage to the nutrition of the food being preserved. Other methods of preservation, such as canning and dehydrating, use higher temperatures that can destroy more than half (50%) of the food value. Freeze drying does not shrink or toughen the food but retains the aroma, flavor, color, shape, and nutritional content. Simply add water. Apples, cheese, avocados, meat, raspberries, peas, ice cream, and yogurt will still look and taste fresh because, in reality, they still are. Without water and oxygen to spoil the food, it is as if the food has been placed in a time capsule. It will last and last and last!
A Harvest Right Home Freeze Dryer allows you to preserve large pieces of tasteful, high-quality food, such as apricot halves, thick peach slices, large slabs of cooked steak, whole shrimp, ice cream sandwiches, and a lot more. You don’t have to settle for the small dice or shavings of fruit or meat that you find in store-bought, freeze-dried products. Prepare it and preserve it how you want it.
Leftover meals, including overly ripe fruits and vegetables, that are typically wasted and thrown away may be freeze-dried until you are ready to eat them. Studies have shown that the average family of four throws away 40% of the food they purchase each year, a value equal to $2,250 or more. Families can avoid much of this waste and preserve large quantities of high-quality food that would normally be put in the garbage.
Prepackaged, processed meals typically include unhealthy additives, such as sodium nitrate, high-fructose corn syrup, trans fats, monosodium glutamate (MSG), food dyes, and colors. When you freeze dry at home, your food is untainted. It will accommodate any dietary need, including food allergies, and vegetarian, or vegan needs. It is perfect for a non-preservative or non-GMO (genetically modified organisms) diet that is designed for a healthy lifestyle.
Freeze drying food is a relatively new process and our Home Freeze Dryer has revolutionized household food preservation. For a detailed explanation of how Home Freeze Drying has changed the food preservation process, we’ve created a white paper—available as a FREE download—describing freeze drying and the history of food preservation.
Freeze drying is remarkable because it causes no damage to the nutrition of the food being preserved. It typically retains 97% of the nutritional value. Other methods of preservation, such as canning and dehydrating, use higher temperatures that destroy much of the food value.
Fruits, vegetables, and meats, eggs, dairy products, even ice cream. Meals like lasagna, rice dishes, cheese macaroni, chili, beef stew, chicken a la king, casseroles, shrimp, lobster, pulled pork, and pasta are all perfect for this process.
