Freeze-dried Starters & Soups

It's the fuel that keeps you going. Choosing nutritious, calorie-rich meals is therefore essential.

The more intense your activity, the more calories you burn. Similarly, the colder the climate, the more energy your body consumes. To compensate, you need to increase your daily calorie intake. Freeze-dried starters and soups are the perfect complement to your hiking meals. For those with smaller appetites doing moderate activity, they can serve as a complete meal at an affordable price.

Key facts about freeze-dried starters

In this product category, we distinguish between cold starters and hot starters. Cold starters include tabbouleh — notably from MX3 — and gazpacho. Hot starters are freeze-dried soups. Preparation is simple and works just like classic freeze-dried meals: just add water (hot or cold, depending on the recipe). Everything you need to know is on the packet: the amount of water to add, preparation time, and so on.

These light dishes are ideal — some vegetarian — for curbing hunger between meals. If you have a big appetite, they also work well as a snack while you wait for a more substantial meal.

What are the benefits of freeze-dried starters and soups for endurance athletes?

Whether it's a starter or a soup, each one is made from natural ingredients that are beneficial to your health. They also contain the essential nutrients needed to strengthen your muscles and improve your performance. You can enjoy them at any time of day, alone or for two. On our website, you'll find single and double portions.

You'll replenish your energy with delicious, nourishing meals. The freeze-drying process preserves both the flavour and the nutritional value of the food.

Whether you're a hiker or an outdoor enthusiast, freeze-dried food will be your best companion. Lightweight and easy to pack, these products save space in your rucksack so you can travel without being weighed down.

Preparation is equally straightforward — and that's one of the key reasons to go for these freeze-dried pouches. Depending on the recipe, simply add hot or cold water. The food rehydrates to its original form within minutes, and all that's left to do is enjoy it.

What should you pair with a freeze-dried starter?

A freeze-dried starter provides between 100 and 300 kcal. To round out your day, we recommend starting with a sweet or savoury freeze-dried breakfast. At lunch, a soup pairs well with a freeze-dried fish dish, for example. To finish on a sweet note, a freeze-dried chocolate dessert is a great option.

To add extra flavour to your starter, you can mix in some freeze-dried vegetables. These will rehydrate at the same time as your soup — a great way to top up your energy levels.

All that's left is to wish you a hearty appetite!
