Production Process Differences between Frozen Strawberries, Fresh Strawberries and Freeze-Dried Strawberries

Strawberries are a popular fruit that can be enjoyed in a number of different ways – fresh, frozen, and freeze-dried. While each method

of processing 

preserves the flavor and nutritional content of the fruit, there are distinct differences in the production process of each. This article will

explore the

 production process differences between frozen strawberries, fresh strawberries and freeze-dried strawberries.

Frozen Strawberries

Frozen strawberries are strawberries that have been frozen either individually or in batches. They are typically sold in grocery stores and

supermarkets 

and can be used in a variety of recipes. Here’s a detailed look at the production process for frozen strawberries.

1. Selecting Strawberries

To produce high-quality frozen strawberries, only ripe, healthy, and fully colored strawberries are chosen. The strawberries are carefully

inspected to ensure that none are bruised, damaged, or overripe.

2. Washing/Sorting

Before the strawberries are frozen, they are first washed and sorted to remove any dirt or debris. The strawberries go through a process

of sorting by size to ensure uniform freezing.

3. Freezing

The washed and sorted strawberries are then frozen using either the flash-freezing method, IQF method or block freezing method. In the

flash-freezing method, whole strawberries or cut strawberries are quickly frozen by exposing them to extremely low temperatures, usually between -20°C to -40°C.

The IQF method, or individually quick-frozen method, freezes the strawberries separately to prevent clumping.

4. Packaging

After the initial freezing process is complete, the strawberries are packaged in airtight, freezer-safe bags for storage.

Fresh Strawberries

Fresh strawberries are those that have not been subjected to any preservation methods. They are usually sold “in season” or imported from

other countries throughout the year. Here’s a detailed look at the production process for fresh strawberries.

1. Selecting Strawberries

To produce high-quality fresh strawberries, only ripe, healthy, and fully colored strawberries are chosen. The strawberries are carefully

inspected to ensure that none are bruised, damaged, or overripe.

2. Washing/Sorting

Before the strawberries are shipped to market, they are first washed and sorted to remove any dirt or debris.

3. Packaging

After the washing and sorting process has been completed, the strawberries are packaged in open containers for retail sale.

Freeze-Dried Strawberries

Freeze-dried strawberries are strawberries that have been dehydrated using a vacuum chamber. The strawberries will then be turned into

powder, flakes or freeze-dried strawberries and then used in a wide range of applications. They are also sold in grocery stores and supermarkets.

Here’s a detailed

 look at the production process for freeze-dried strawberries.

1. Selecting Strawberries

To produce high-quality freeze-dried strawberries, only ripe, healthy, and fully colored strawberries are chosen. The strawberries are

carefully inspected to ensure that none are bruised, damaged, or overripe.

2. Washing/Sorting 

Before the strawberries are dried, they are first washed and sorted to remove any dirt or debris.

3. Pre-Treatment

To prepare the strawberries for the freeze-drying process, they are treated with enzymes that break down the cell walls of the fruit, making

it easier to preserve. Once they have been treated, the strawberries are then frozen.

4. Freeze-Drying

The frozen strawberries are then placed in a vacuum chamber where the temperature is lowered to -40°C to -50°C. The pressure is then

reduced, and the frozen strawberries undergo sublimation. This process removes all of the moisture from the strawberries, leaving them dry and

lightweight.

5. Packaging

After the freeze-drying process is complete, the strawberries are packaged in airtight, vacuum-sealed pouches for storage.

Conclusion

In summary, the production process differences between frozen strawberries, fresh strawberries and freeze-dried strawberries depend on

the desired

 preservation method. The process for frozen strawberries involves washing, sorting, and freezing, while the process for fresh strawberries

involves 

washing, sorting, and packaging in open containers. Freeze-dried strawberries, on the other hand, undergo a process of washing, sorting,

pre-treatment, 

freeze-drying, and packaging. Each preservation method serves its intended purpose and offers a unique way to enjoy strawberries all year

round.
