DEHYDRATED .VS. FREEZE DRIED FOOD

A lot of people are unsure about the differences between dehydrated foods and freeze dried foods. Both foods are optimum for long term storage.

Dehydrated foods are without any seasoning or additional ingredients (usually). Dehydrated foods are usually single ingredients. You can mix any dehydrated food with any other food product for a combination of tastes, textures and varieties.

Dehydrated foods require cooking and seasoning. Cooking times vary, but most are added to hot boiling water. You can also do "thermos cooking" by adding boiling water to a thermos, adding ingredients and letting it sit for a couple of hours. Just forget about it, it will cook itself. This will cook the food slowly using the minimum amount of energy.

By adding water, you're rehydrating the food back into it's original natural state before dehydration, but it's still "raw". It still needs to be cooked until tender. Most dehydrated food will benefit from adding seasoning.

Freeze dried foods, on the other hand, are usually foods containing a multitude of ingredients and seasonings. Nothing more is needed, just a little cook time in hot water to rehydrated them and have them ready to eat. They are pre-seasoned, pre-cooked and pre-mixed with other ingredients, making them the fastest, easiest and tastiest foods available.

Freeze dried food is usually an "entree", containing multiple items for a complete meal. Most dishes have several items included within them and you don't need to do any other cooking or adding ingredients to make a complete meal. Because it's freeze dried, you simply add hot water, and cook for about 10 minutes. This rehydrates the food completely and it's ready to eat! (In a pinch you can use clean cold water to rehydrate your Freeze Dried Food.)

about_us

Who we are:

 

We are the Johnson family.

 

Bill and wife Phyllis, Gary and his wife Judy.
We have been helping the disabled and elderly folks for some time now doing home modifications for accessibility issues. And now we see a need to help people get ready for the future, with everything that is going on right now in our world, there is going to be a time when preparation will be to late.

 

Just a few years ago people would store up food and supplies for their survival, grow a garden and can the fruits of their labor. After all, proper planning and preparation often meant the difference between having food on the table or not. Our Nation has been blessed with abundance and availability of food and supplies and most no longer give any thought to putting up food in storage. After all it is so easy to run to the store and pick up meat, eggs, butter and bread. But most metropolitan areas only have enough food in distribution warehouses and stores to keep the area population fed for 4 days.

 

So it seems like a natural thing to do, to help other people get ready for an emergency or a disaster that may come their way. No one can take care of your family the way you can, it’s time for the American people to start helping themselves again.
