Freeze-drying (also known as lyophilization or cryodesiccation) is a dehydration process typically used to preserve a perishable material or make the material more convenient for transport. Freeze-drying works by freezing the material and then reducing the surrounding pressure and adding enough heat to allow the frozen water in the material to sublimate directly from the solid phase to the gas phase.

The freeze-drying technology is worldwide accepted as the best food preservation process, which can preserve the most nutritional values as well as color, flavors and shape of all foods-in particular for those fruits and vegetables.
