The Process of Freeze Drying Beets
Wondering how we get from fresh, juicy beets to these shelf-stable wonders? The answer is freeze drying. This process involves first freezing the beets, then placing them in a vacuum to remove moisture. It’s a gentle method that retains the nutritional value, color, and flavor of the beets.
Why Choose Freeze Dried Over Fresh Beets?
Now, you might be thinking, “Why not just stick with fresh beets?” Well, freeze dried beets are just as nutritious, but with added convenience. They’re lighter, easier to store, and have a much longer shelf life than fresh beets.
