Freeze Dried Dragon Fruit
About this product
Dragon fruit is mostly water, which makes it the hardest kind of fruit to dry well and the most rewarding when it works. Freeze-drying takes the water out without collapsing the flesh, so the slices keep their shape, their speckle of black seeds and that startling magenta.
Fresh dragon fruit is famously mild. Take the water away and the flavour finally has somewhere to concentrate.

- Use as a garnish where colour matters — cakes, panna cotta, mocktails
Storage
Airtight, cool, dry. Reseal quickly, as thin slices soften faster than dense fruit.
How long does it keep once opened?
Sealed and kept somewhere cool and dry, several months. Once opened, close the jar firmly straight after every use. Freeze-dried food pulls moisture out of ordinary air quickly, and once it softens the crispness does not come back.
Is this the same as dehydrated or sun-dried?
No. Dehydrated usually means hot-air dried at 60 to 80 degrees, which darkens the food, drives off the aroma and leaves it chewy. Freeze-drying applies no heat at all — the food is frozen, then the ice is drawn off under vacuum. The colour, aroma and structure survive.
Has any sugar or preservative been added?
No. Nothing has been added to this product beyond what is stated on the label. Removing the water is what preserves it, so no chemical preservative is needed. Any sweetness you taste came with the food itself.
Do I need to refrigerate it?
No. Store it at room temperature in a sealed jar, away from direct sun and away from steam. A cupboard is ideal. Do not keep it beside the stove or the sink.
How do I rehydrate it?
Cover with warm water and leave for five to ten minutes, depending on how thick the pieces are. Vegetables can also go straight into anything with enough liquid — soups, dals and curries — and will rehydrate as it cooks.
