Beets, berries and more: 6 Benefits of preserving food through freeze-drying
By Zoey Sky // Mar 26, 2024

When you're getting ready before SHTF, stocking up on healthy and long-lasting freeze-dried foods like berries and vegetables is an important part of your preparedness plan.

Detailed below are some of the benefits of freeze-dried food, such as a long shelf life and nutrient retention. (h/t to WeLovePrepping.com)

Freeze-drying is a food preservation method that reduces the surrounding pressure to allow the frozen water in the food to sublimate directly from solid to gas.

This method removes up to 98 percent of the food's moisture content. The lack of water in the processed food makes it impossible for spoilage reactions to occur. It also greatly reduces weight and volume.

Freeze-dried ingredients are lighter and take up little space compared to canned goods, making them an ideal addition to your stockpile if storage space is an issue. (Related: Dive into the world of berry foraging: Unravel the secrets to spotting and gathering Mother Nature's sweet treasures.)

The benefits of freeze-drying food

Freeze-dried foods are a great option for your survival stockpile.

When water is removed from fresh foods through freeze-drying, the resulting lightweight, compact foods may have an extended shelf life of up to 25 years. It's also easy to rehydrate freeze-dried foods because you only need to add water to return them to almost their original state.

Here are some of the benefits of stockpiling freeze-dried foods:

Nutrient retention

Freeze-drying better preserves nutrients compared to other food preservation methods like canning.

Human knowledge is under attack! Governments and powerful corporations are using censorship to wipe out humanity's knowledge base about nutrition, herbs, self-reliance, natural immunity, food production, preparedness and much more. We are preserving human knowledge using AI technology while building the infrastructure of human freedom. Speak freely without censorship at the new decentralized, blockchain-power Brighteon.io.

This also means that stocking up on freeze-dried foods like acai berries and kale ensures that you have access to nutritious ingredients even after SHTF.

Taste

Most freeze-dried foods retain excellent flavor and texture qualities after rehydrating, making them a great addition to your emergency food stockpile.

Long shelf life

When packaged and stored properly freeze-dried foods can last up to several years, making them a great option for a prepper's food stockpile.

Lightweight

The removal of water makes freeze-dried food very lightweight and compact compared to traditional canned goods.

If you want to maximize shelf space in your pantry or stockroom, freeze-dried food is also easy to transport and store.

Variety

Kitchen staples like meats, vegetables and fruits can be freeze-dried. Versatile ingredients like freeze-dried blueberries or kale are great for adding diversity to your food supplies.

Customization

If you have a home freeze dryer, you can freeze-dry fresh foods that you grow or hunt. You can then use these ingredients to cook customized meals for your family.
