Comments

To address the issue of a freeze-dried steak's center not rehydrating due to its thickness, you can use the following methods:
1. Use Warm Water:

Rehydrating with warm (but not hot) water allows it to penetrate the fibers of the steak more effectively. Warm water increases the speed of absorption without cooking the exterior prematurely.

2. Soak for Longer:

Allowing a thicker steak to soak for an extended period will ensure that the water has enough time to reach the center. This is especially important for denser or larger pieces.

3. Massage or Agitate the Steak During Rehydration:

Gently massaging or stirring the steak in the water helps promote water penetration by loosening the outer fibers and improving absorption.

4. Vacuum-Seal Rehydration:

Placing the steak in a vacuum-seal bag and submerging it in water while removing air can help force water into the steak's core. This technique uses pressure to promote faster and more even rehydration.
