Secchi cavoli, cipolle e barbabietole

There are many types of dried and dehydrated vegetables such as potatoes, beans, snap beans, lima beans, leafy greens, carrots, corn, onions, carrots, and mushrooms. Due to their higher density, dried legumes contain more calories per ounce than fresh vegetables. For example, 1 ounce of fresh carrots contains 11 calories. In comparison, 1 ounce of dehydrated carrots, equal to just over 1/3 cup, contains 96 calories.

Calories

Dried vegetables retain 100% of the caloric value of fresh vegetables while taking up half the space. Current dehydration technologies can remove almost all of the moisture content in vegetables, leaving only 2 to 3 percent in the finished product. Removing moisture increases the shelf life of vegetables.

Heat and nutrients

The dehydration process occurs with the help of heat. Even though temperatures are kept fairly low, some of the heat-sensitive vitamins, especially vitamin C, are lost. Vitamin E is fairly well preserved despite exposure to heat, provided that the temperature is kept under control. However, ordinary cooking processes will also cause the loss or destruction of these two vitamins. Water-soluble vitamins, such as vitamin B, may be lost during the rehydration process of dried vegetables, but it is possible to save them by using the liquid absorption capacity during cooking.

Dietary fiber content

Dehydration preserves the full dietary fiber content in vegetables, ensuring that they remain a high-fiber food choice. Dietary fiber provides most of your diet and can help reduce the effects of constipation. Vegetables are naturally rich in both soluble and insoluble fiber; the former helps create a soft mass, while the latter helps speed up the passage of waste through your intestines.

Texture and consumption

To use dehydrated vegetables, you need to rehydrate them, which usually requires soaking them in water. But you can add dehydrated vegetables directly to marketable products, such as soups, stews, and sauces. Rehydrated vegetables often have a soft texture, similar to fresh vegetables, so they are often eaten as part of the finished dish, rather than on their own. However, some Asian dishes use the unusual texture of dehydrated vegetables to provide a contrasting texture.
