The practice of dehydrating food dates back thousands of years. Early civilizations, including the
Incas of South America, used sun drying to preserve vegetables like potatoes and corn.
This technique removed moisture, slowing down spoilage and allowing food to be stored for extended
periods.
The invention of food dehydrators in the early 20th century revolutionized the process. Dehydrators
use controlled heat and air circulation to remove moisture more efficiently and hygienically than sun
drying. This innovation made dehydrated vegetables readily available and consistent in quality.
