Summary

Join me for today’s Pioneering Today Podcast as I discuss the benefits and drawbacks of freeze dried vs. dehydrated food. What exactly are the differences between freeze-drying and dehydrating. Are there benefits that outweigh one from the other? Are there certain foods that should or shouldn't be preserved by these methods? Plus, learn the only foods that are shelf-stable when freeze-dried and how this can be a game changer when it comes to stocking a well-supplied pantry or long-term food storage supply.
