Strawberry Powder Freeze-Dried Organic

Descent of the Strawberry

Originally the strawberry comes from North and South America. Halfway through the 18th century the strawberry made the crossing to Europe. The strawberry (fragaria ananassa), also known as the garden strawberry, is a widely cultivated hybrid between two American species, namely Fragaria virginiana and Fragaria chiloensis. Strawberries have a very high vitamin C content of 64 mg per 100 grams. Due to the strong aroma of the strawberry, it can be used well as a flavor enhancer in eg yogurt.

Freezedried strawberries

Freeze drying is a preservation process. The product is first frozen at a temperature between -50 and -80 ° C so that all moisture changes into ice crystals. Next, the product is vacuumed. Then the product is slowly warmed up under vacuum. Without a vacuum, the ice crystals would melt again, but due to the vacuum, the moisture skips its liquid stage and evaporates immediately (sublimation). What remains is the same product, but completely dehydrated. This preserves all the good properties of the product and extends its shelf life considerably. It is precisely for this reason that it is best to buy freeze-dried fruit. Finally, the product is ground into powder.

Use of Strawberry Powder

Strawberry powder is excellent for use in smoothies, yogurt, ice cream and baking. In addition, freeze-dried strawberry powder is also ideal to use as a natural, healthy coloring. The striking red colour gives every dish a special appearance. Strawberries are very healthy and contain various vitamins, minerals and antioxidants. All these nutrients as well as the taste of strawberry are preserved in the powder by freeze-drying. Besides the strawberry, there are many other flavours that are delicious to throw through the yoghurt!
