Back Country Cuisine Beef Stroganoff Freeze Dried Meal - 175g

Manufacturer's Website

Description

The Back Country Cuisine Beef Stroganoff Freeze Dried Meal is a Russian classic of beef pieces, and mushrooms in a sour cream sauce, served with rice.

Back Country Cuisine products are easy to prepare and taste great because of their unique freeze dri process. This combines quick-to-hydrate, freeze-dried vegetables and meats with delicious sauce mixes that retain their natural flavours. The result is a lightweight tasty meal, that can be prepared inside the pack in 10 minutes with just a bit of boiling water, and no cooking or heating required.

During the freeze-drying process, crystals of frozen ice in the food are sublimed (evaporated) to water vapour in a vacuum chamber. The result is a completely dry product that does not shrink during the drying process. When prepared for eating, the water is quickly absorbed by the pores left by the ice crystals to give a juicy, tender food product. After packing, the food is heat-sealed in foil pouches from which all the air has been removed and replaced with nitrogen gas, keeping the food safe and flavoursome for at least three years, preservative-free.

Back Country Cuisine meals are formulated to meet the high energy needs of outdoor activity and our products have a careful mix of the essential components needed for a healthy diet. This includes balanced carbohydrates and sugars for instant energy, protein to replenish exhausted muscles and oils and fats to provide an energy store (these are kept within the recommended maximum of 30% of total energy).

Preparation Method:

Simply add the required amount of hot (or sometimes cold water, when stated) stated on the back of each meal pouch, stir and let stand for 10 minutes. The result is a delicious hot meal wherever you may be. 

Check out the added lower tear tab on all pouches, once the meal has been reconstituted just tear the lower perforation and use the pouch as a bowl. A great idea and saves getting messy hands when using your spoon or fork.
