Freeze Dried Asparagus

Easy to store, use, and take along — healthy — no sulfites.

• 1-inch cross cuts of freeze dried asparagus.
• Excellent source of vitamins A and C.

Common uses: Camping food, backpacking food, snacks, and quick-and-easy cooking at home. A dry snack as is, right out of the bag. Like our other freeze dried vegetables, our asparagus is used as a side dish as well as in salads, veggie trail mixes, soups, and casseroles.

Packaging: Bagged selections are in high quality resealable foil pouches with moisture absorbent pack to help ensure freshness after initial opening. Bulk orders use sealed plastic bag inside sturdy cardboard box.

GMO free: Our partner growers and processors have assured us of no genetically modified crops. Please note we do not perform laboratory testing as we do not know of a scientifically approved procedure.

A popular gift item: Use our multiple-address and gift-messaging features to send dried asparagus and other dried vegetables to friends and family.

Easy to Prepare

• Use alone as a dry snack or add to veggie trail mixes.
• Add dry for a crunchy effect in salads and, while serving, cooked rice and cooked pasta.
• Add dry during the last 5-10 minutes of cooking soups that have sufficient broth.
• For most other applications, hydrate by soaking for 5-10 minutes in a generous amount of cold or hot water (hot water works slightly better). Then drain.

Yield — 1 oz equals about 2-3/4 cups dry with less than 4% moisture content. Fresh weight replacement ratio is 1 to 16 (freeze dried to fresh prepared).

Storage — Tastes best if used within 24 months of purchase. Store tightly sealed and minimize exposure to heat and humidity.
