Differance between freezing and dry freezing

Posted by on Jan 26, 2011

Freezing and dry freezing differ not only by the temperatures reached, but also by the speed at which we reach these temperatures. Freezing is a particular way of freezing food. His process is the result of an industrial technique of quench (minutes to hours) food exposing intensely at temperatures ranging from -30 ° C to -50 ° C even up to-60C. Its aim is to increase the lifetime of a product. Indeed, since by this method, the water contained in the cells finely crystallized limiting cellular destruction. The products thus treated retain their texture, flavor and can be kept much longer. Regarding freezing, we speak of a slow method as about-18C as the one obtained with its own freezer at home. Therefore, a slower cooling transforms the water present in food in thick ice crystals. During thawing, the ice crystals damage the cell structure and release nutrients. Freshness, vitamins and nutritional value are lost to a large extent.
