The Process
We take pride in our meticulous and professional approach to transform fresh produce into exceptional dehydrated vegetable products.
​
Our process, from the field to the final product, is marked by precision, adherence to industry standards, and a deep commitment to quality.
Sourcing and Harvesting
Sourcing is a key component of our commitment to delivering top-quality dehydrated vegetable products. We understand that in the complex journey from the field to the final product, expertise is essential at every stage.
Sourcing is not just a convenience; it's a strategic decision to bring specialized knowledge and capabilities to every aspect of our process.
We partner with reputable growers to procure ripe, premium vegetables that meet our strict quality criteria, ensuring they are at the peak of freshness.
At Freshtime, sourcing means more than delegating tasks; it's about ensuring that expertise and quality are embedded in every step of our process, making us a trusted partner for clients who demand nothing but the best.
2. Sorting and Cleaning
In the journey from field to final product, one of the critical junctures where our commitment to excellence shines is in the sorting and inspection phase. Here, we go beyond standard procedures to ensure that only the finest raw materials make it into our dehydrated vegetable products.
​Our quality control process combines the expertise of skilled professionals and advanced technology. Our professionals meticulously inspect each batch of harvested vegetables, while advanced sorting technology with optical sensors and cameras detects imperfections not visible to the human eye.
We also rigorously remove foreign matter to ensure our dehydrated vegetables are visually appealing and free from contaminants. Stringent quality thresholds govern our sorting and inspection processes, guaranteeing that only the finest vegetables meet our standards.
This commitment to uncompromising quality ensures that our products consistently exceed industry expectations.
3. Cutting and Slicing
In the transformation of fresh vegetables into dehydrated delights, the cutting and slicing phase is a true testament to the art of precision. We place great emphasis on this stage, understanding that it plays a pivotal role in achieving uniformity and consistency in our dehydrated vegetable slices.
Each vegetable presents a unique challenge. Our professionals employ customized cutting techniques for different vegetables to optimize the outcome.
While skilled professionals are at the core of our slicing expertise, they are aided by state-of-the-art slicing machinery. These machines are fine-tuned to execute precise cuts.
4.From Blanching to Controlled Dehydration
To ensure our dehydrated vegetables retain their vibrant color, rich flavor, and essential nutrients, some varieties undergo blanching or steam blanching before the dehydration process.
Following this preparatory step, the vegetables are meticulously arranged in our dehydrators. Here, they undergo controlled dehydration, a precise process that effectively removes moisture while preserving the inherent characteristics that make our products exceptional.
This meticulous approach ensures that each slice of dehydrated vegetable is a testament to the natural goodness it originated from, enriching every culinary creation it graces.
5.Grinding and Powdering
In our quest for culinary excellence, we adapt our process to create a range of dehydrated vegetable products. For specific items, like dehydrated vegetable powders, the dehydrated slices are meticulously ground to a fine consistency using specialized equipment.
Once the transformation is complete, our final dehydrated vegetable products are carefully packaged in various formats, spanning from bulk containers to consumer-sized packages.
Each packaging solution is thoughtfully designed to not only maintain product quality but also extend the shelf life, ensuring that our customers receive the freshest, finest ingredients in every serving.
