Carrots (Daucus carotaL. subsp.sativus) are one of the mostwidely cultivated and consumed vegetables throughout the world. Carrots are a high-moisture food with moisture content of 90 g/100 g on a wet basis. The dehydration of carrots seems to be a convenient alternative for long-term storage or usage. Dried carrots are used as an ingredient in various food products, such as soups, sauces, ready-meals as well as healthy snacks. The high content of carotene is a unique property that makes dried carrot slices an excellent candidate for developing oil free, healthy snack foods. However, the nutritional value must be well preserved and a puffed texture should be generated in the drying process.
