Light skinned figs from Weihai
Recently, thanks to freeze-drying, a company in Shandong was able to export 200 kilograms of figs, with a value of 5400 American dollars. The figs passed tests by the department in charge of exports, and smoothly cleared the customs in Nagoya (Japan). This is the first time Weihai has managed to successfully export dried figs.
Freeze-dried, refers to foodstuff that was dried in a vacuum at freezing temperatures. By applying the technique of freeze-drying the color and taste of fresh food can be preserved for longer. If no other preservatives are added, the food can be conserved at room temperature for more than 5 years. This greatly facilitates transportation.
