Question

How is the nutritional value of ready to eat food the same as it was before the dehydration?

Answer 1

Answer:

The three R's for nutrient preservation are to reduce the amount of water used in cooking, reduce the cooking time and reduce the surface area of the food that is exposed. Waterless cooking, pressure cooking, steaming, stir-frying and microwaving are least destructive of nutrients. Frozen vegetables can be steamed.

Answer 2

Explanation:

You can dehydrate your own fruits, vegetables, herbs, and even meat in an oven or specialty food dehydrator. Many dehydrated foods are available in stores as well, though watch out for added ingredients like sodium, sugar, or oils.
