The extent of food loss in Israel is about 7000 tons a day, 70% of which is agricultural produce – fruits and vegetables. About 50% of the lost food is salvageable and edible. How can we give a second life to discarded produce and increase its value? The project presents a solution for reducing waste by creating frozen tablets from salvaged agricultural produce. The fruits and vegetables are chopped up and frozen in molds, in a process that preserves their taste, color, and nutritional value. The tablets offer a sustainable gastronomic experience that adds more food making possibilities for home cooks.
