In the fast-paced modern life, people's demand for healthy snacks is growing. Dried fruits and vegetables have become a popular choice with their unique advantages. These processed foods not only bring a different experience to our taste buds, but also produce many subtle changes to the body without knowing it.
Dried fruits and dried vegetables are natural concentrated nutrients. Take the common raisins as an example. They retain the rich iron and antioxidant anthocyanins in grapes. Iron is an important raw material for synthesizing hemoglobin, which helps prevent iron deficiency anemia and makes the complexion more rosy; anthocyanins can remove free radicals in the body and delay cell aging. Another example is dried bananas, which are rich in potassium ions, which can maintain electrolyte balance in the body, help regulate the normal function of nerves and muscles, and relieve fatigue. Dried vegetables should not be underestimated either. Dried spinach has a very high content of vitamin A, which can protect eye health and prevent night blindness; dried carrots are rich in β-carotene, which can be converted into vitamin A in the body, and have a positive effect on the repair of skin mucosa and the enhancement of the immune system. These concentrated nutrients can provide the body with efficient energy and nutrient support.
Both are rich in dietary fiber. The dietary fiber in dried fruits can absorb water and swell in the intestines, increase the volume of feces, promote intestinal peristalsis, and prevent constipation. For example, dried apricots have a high dietary fiber content, which can help improve the intestinal environment. The dietary fiber in dried vegetables can not only promote intestinal peristalsis, but also absorb harmful substances in the intestines and reduce the residence time of toxins in the body. Dietary fiber can also provide nutrition for intestinal probiotics, promote the reproduction of probiotics, maintain the balance of intestinal flora, enhance intestinal immunity, and keep the intestines in good working condition.
When losing weight, humans will actively choose to eat less and move more, and often some trace elements and energy will be ignored. Then dried fruits and dried vegetables show their infinite role. Dried vegetables contain a variety of vitamins and minerals, which can participate in the body's metabolism and maintain the normal functions of various organs. During the weight loss period, if you feel extremely hungry, but don't want to consume too much high-fat and high-sugar food, you can completely use dried vegetables instead of snacks. At the same time, when you feel tired, eating a few dried fruits can quickly restore your energy. When you are anemic, a small raisin can also reawaken your body's functions.
Dried fruits have a variety of tastes. Some are soft and chewy, such as dried red dates. Take a bite, and the delicate flesh slowly unfolds in the mouth with a slight elasticity; some are crispy and delicious, such as dried almonds, with a crisp shell and plump kernels, which make a crisp sound when chewed. The taste of dried vegetables is also surprising. After dehydration, the originally soft vegetables become extremely crispy and break into pieces, leaving a light fragrance.
Dried mushrooms have a certain toughness. When chewing, you can feel the unique fragrance of mushrooms spreading in your mouth. Different processing techniques also create different tastes. Dried fruits and vegetables are usually hard and crispy, while freeze-dried ones are crisper and lighter, melt in your mouth, and give people a different chewing experience.
The taste of dried fruits and vegetables is mainly natural sweetness, and different types of fruits bring different flavors. Not only that, because of dehydration, each different vegetable and fruit retains its original taste. If you don’t know what a certain fruit tastes like in its fresh state, you might as well try their taste after being dehydrated. Of course, if you also want to try sprinkling cumin powder, I recommend sprinkling it on dried okra. If you want me to recommend a challenging taste, you can try sprinkling chili powder on dried sour mango. I believe no one will do this.
Dried fruits and dried vegetables are susceptible to moisture, oxidation and odor absorption, so there are high requirements for packaging. Good packaging needs to have moisture-proof function to prevent moisture in the air from entering the packaging, causing the product to soften and mold; it must be able to effectively block oxygen, slow down the oxidation process, and maintain the color and flavor of the product; it also needs to have a certain degree of sealing to prevent external odors from invading and affecting the taste of the product. At the same time, the packaging should also have a certain degree of pressure resistance to protect the product from damage during transportation and storage, and maintain a good appearance and taste.
Paper can packaging is an environmentally friendly packaging. From an environmental protection perspective, paper cans are made of natural paper materials and can be recycled, which is in line with the current concept of green environmental protection and reduces pollution to the environment. In terms of protecting products, paper cans have a certain degree of moisture-proof performance, whether inside or outside the can; their sealing is also good, which can prevent the entry of oxygen and odors, and maintain the freshness and original flavor of the product. In addition, paper can packaging has good compression resistance and can protect the product from being squeezed to a certain extent, because the thinnest can wall must be 1.5 mm.
Dried fruits and dried vegetables, with their rich nutrition, diverse taste and unique taste, add color to our diet and life, and also silently protect our health. As their high-quality "guardian", paper can packaging can not only effectively protect the product, but also conform to the environmental protection trend, allowing us to contribute to environmental protection while enjoying delicious food. In the future food market, I believe that dried fruits and dried vegetables will continue to be an important choice for people's healthy diet with their own advantages and suitable packaging.
