Production & Sourcing
Harvesting and Preparation: Fresh sweet corn is harvested at the peak of ripeness when the kernels are plump and sweet. The corn is carefully selected and inspected for quality.
Blanching: The harvested sweet corn is briefly blanched by being immersed in boiling water or steam. Blanching helps preserve the flavor, color, and texture of the corn while also removing any surface bacteria.
Freezing: The blanched sweet corn is rapidly frozen to very low temperatures. This freezing process helps retain the corn’s natural characteristics and prevents the formation of ice crystals that could damage the texture and quality.
Vacuum Chamber: The frozen sweet corn is placed in a vacuum chamber. Inside the chamber, the pressure is reduced, and heat is applied. This process is called sublimation, where the frozen water content in the corn transitions directly from solid to gas without becoming a liquid.
Drying: As the frozen water sublimates, it is converted into water vapor and removed from the corn kernels. This is achieved by maintaining a controlled temperature and pressure within the vacuum chamber. The drying process continues until the desired moisture level is reached, leaving behind freeze-dried sweet corn.
