Premium Dehydrated Celery – The Refreshing Green Vitality

1. Introduction to Dehydrated Celery

Celery (Apium graveolens) is a staple aromatic and health vegetable, prized for its crisp texture and clean, peppery flavor. While fresh celery is bulky and has a high water content, Dehydrated Celery offers a highly concentrated form that is easy to store and integrate into diverse food applications.

At Vinahugo, we offer Air-Dried (AD) and Freeze-Dried (FD) celery. Our process begins with fresh, pesticide-free celery stalks and leaves, which are thoroughly cleaned and sliced. By removing the moisture at controlled temperatures, we preserve the vibrant green color and the essential phytonutrients that make celery a popular “superfood.”

2. Product Varieties

• Celery Cross-Cuts: Uniformly sized pieces (e.g., $3\times 3$ mm or $6\times 6$ mm) used in instant noodle vegetable packs and salad mixes.
