Canning & Preservations of Vegetables

Preservation  of foods by drying them is perhaps the  oldest method known.  Large quantities of fruits are dried in the sun in different  parts of the world such as Asia Minor, Greece,  Spain, and   other   Mediterranean   countries,   Arabia,   Afghanistan, Australia,  etc.  The modern method of dehydration,  i.e.  drying fruits and vegetables under controlled conditions of  temperature and  humidity  is,  however,  assuming  importance  as  a   major industry.   The  dehydration industry got an impetus  during  the World  War II.  On account of their concentrated form, low  cost, convenience  and easy transportability, dried vegetable  products and  also other dehydrated foods became highly popular among  the armed forces.
