What is the difference between dried strawberries and freeze-dried strawberries?
The freeze-drying of strawberries has been developed in recent years. The vacuum freeze-drying machine can largely maintain the original color, aroma, taste, nutritional composition, and shape of strawberries. Other dried strawberries are generally dried using methods such as oven drying, hot drying, and microwave drying. If the temperature is too high, it can easily lead to the inactivation of active substances in strawberries and the loss of nutrients. Freeze drying is the process of quickly evaporating water from fruits at low temperatures without adding sugar, maintaining the original flavor of the food. Strawberries are wet and can be pickled with sugar during processing, both of which are very popular. The difference between dried strawberries and freeze-dried strawberries is that freeze-dried strawberries are dehydrated by the manufacturer, so they taste crispy and easy to eat, mainly without any additives. Dried strawberries belong to the category of honey deficiency, so they are very soft when placed in front of us and taste a bit sour and sweet. You should know that dried strawberries are dehydrated fruits made by marinating them with honey, while freeze-dried strawberries are made by cooling a large amount of water in the strawberries and freezing them into a solid state. In other words, they are made at low temperature and low pressure.
How to make freeze-dried strawberry crispy?
The freeze-drying of strawberry crisps is a new low-temperature freeze-drying technology. It's about placing the fruit in an environment at minus 30 degrees Celsius to form crystals. Then, the fruit grains are placed in a vacuum environment for water sublimation to form dehydrated fruit grains. This process is just the process of water from scratch, but the nutritional composition has not changed at all, which is also the reason for the current strong development of freeze-drying technology in China. Unlike traditional ones, potato chips are fried at high temperatures, which destroys their nutritional content. Freeze dried crispy fruit is a low calorie healthy food. Apart from water, it is not significantly different from fresh fruits and vegetables, as it has low calories and is less prone to obesity. Freeze dried fruit crispy is rich in dietary fiber and various nutritional components of fruits and vegetables, making it a reasonable diet for children with a preference for food.
Freeze dried strawberries can be made into tea. During brewing, freeze-dried strawberries can be mixed with various ingredients, such as Luo Shen Hua, osmanthus, pineapple granules, and mango granules. And put it into a tea cup and pour it into boiling water to brew. After three to five minutes, the homemade fruit tea can be brewed, and you can drink it directly if you want.

It has a sweet taste of strawberries and no other additives were added during the processing. After consumption, it is only beneficial to the human body and not harmful.
