Denis Korn, the founder, has developed many tasty, nutritious entrees, breakfasts, soups, and individual items to help support the adventurers facing outdoor challenges. Today, AlpineAire Foods has over 200 delicious items from which to choose. In 1988 Mr. Korn saw a need to use his foods to meet the needs of all types of emergencies, whether it be economic or natural, thus Gourmet Reserves was introduced. The Gourmet Reserves product line is unique in the industry as it provides the largest variety of foods available in shelf stable cans appropriate for long-term storage. Our menus consist of everyday foods and meals that are enjoyed by adults and children.
Various systems are available, tailored to meet the needs of any customer.
Our systems are practical and easily incorporated into your daily diet. For instant or quick rehydration of certain dried foods and for products which retain their shape and texture, freeze-drying is the preferred method. The first step in freeze-drying is to rapidly freeze the food. The water content, now frozen, is turned directly into a gas and withdrawn from the food during the next steps, vacuum and heat, thus avoiding the shrinkage. Many of Goutmet Reserves products are custom freeze-dried to suit our strict quality requirements.
