Dried kale carefully low-temperature-dries domestic fresh produce, a commercial raw material that retains a deep green and nutritional value in dried-leaf form. It's an ingredient frequently consulted about in health-conscious food development&#8212;green-drink raw material, smoothie mixes, a base for green powder, salad toppings, and more.<a href=\"https:\/\/agriture.jp\/en\/wholesale-oem\/\">For consultations on dried vegetable and powder OEM here<\/a>and let us know your intended use and desired cut form.<\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Three points of care in Agriture's dried kale<\/h2>\n<div style=\"border-top:1px solid #d7e8d7;border-bottom:1px solid #d7e8d7;padding:24px 0;margin:28px 0\"><h3 style=\"color:#2c5f2d;font-size:15px;letter-spacing:0.1em;margin:0 0 10px\">01 Low-temperature drying maximally retains nutritional value and green color<\/h3><p style=\"margin:0 0 20px\">The vitamin C and beta-carotene in kale are heat-sensitive, and high-temperature drying causes large nutritional losses. Agriture dries it slowly by a low-temperature hot-air method, with a process design that maintains a nutritional value close to fresh leaf and a deep green. By curbing chlorophyll fading, it also retains visual appeal as a product.<\/p><h3 style=\"color:#2c5f2d;font-size:15px;letter-spacing:0.1em;margin:0 0 10px\">02 Green-drink-grade quality control<\/h3><p style=\"margin:0 0 20px\">Agriture's dried kale is quality-controlled at a grade usable as a raw material for health foods and green drinks. From raw material intake to shipping, we operate in line with hygiene management standards and also handle issuing microbial test reports. A system that can meet the quality documentation health-food manufacturers require.<\/p><h3 style=\"color:#2c5f2d;font-size:15px;letter-spacing:0.1em;margin:0\">03 Integrated support from small-lot prototyping to mass production<\/h3><p style=\"margin:10px 0 0\">Agriture handles small-lot prototyping from 1kg units, and simultaneous prototyping of multiple shapes&#8212;coarse-ground, crush, powder&#8212;is also possible. For green-drink development, we've built a system that lets you nail down the balance of bitterness and drinkability at the prototyping stage.<\/p><\/div>\n\n<div class=\"p-blogParts post_content\" data-partsid=\"2831\">\n<div class=\"swell-block-fullWide pc-py-20 sp-py-20 alignfull\" style=\"background-color:#ffffff\"><div class=\"swell-block-fullWide__inner l-container\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center is-style-section_ttl u-mb-ctrl u-mb-10\">Product catalog showing the items we handle<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\">Flexible support from small lots to large lots<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns are-vertically-aligned-center\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-vertically-aligned-center\" style=\"flex-basis:30%\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large size_xs\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/agriture.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/DSC_4178-Edit-edited-1-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\u4e7e\u71e5\u91ce\u83dc\" class=\"wp-image-110\" srcset=\"https:\/\/agriture.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/DSC_4178-Edit-edited-1-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/agriture.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/DSC_4178-Edit-edited-1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/agriture.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/DSC_4178-Edit-edited-1-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/agriture.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/DSC_4178-Edit-edited-1-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/agriture.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/DSC_4178-Edit-edited-1-2048x1365.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-vertically-aligned-center\" style=\"flex-basis:30%\">\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list -list-under-dashed\">\n<li>Sold in small lots from 100g<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Handling heirloom vegetables from across Japan<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Dried fruits and herbs also supported<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-vertically-aligned-center\" style=\"flex-basis:30%\">\n<div class=\"swell-block-button -size-l is-style-btn_normal\"><a href=\"https:\/\/agriture.noco.sale\/share\/d\/01KT67ZHHNQF9MZ0RKRGQA92MQ\" class=\"swell-block-button__link\"><span>Download here<\/span><\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Characteristics of commercial dried kale<\/h2>\n<div style=\"display:flex;flex-wrap:wrap;gap:16px;margin:16px 0 28px\"><div style=\"flex:1 1 calc(50% - 8px);border-left:3px solid #2c5f2d;padding:16px 20px;background:#fafcf8;border-radius:0 4px 4px 0;min-width:260px\"><div style=\"color:#2c5f2d;font-weight:700;font-size:15px;margin-bottom:8px\">A superfood's nutritional value<\/div><p style=\"margin:0;font-size:14px;line-height:1.75\">Kale is a leafy vegetable rich in vitamin K, vitamin C, beta-carotene, calcium, and dietary fiber.

Chlorophyll also breaks down easily with heat, so high-temperature processing browns kale's characteristic deep green. Agriture uses a low-temperature hot-air method with finely controlled temperature and airflow, running a drying program that maximally retains both nutritional value and color.<\/p>\n<p>Manufacturing is managed consistently at our own processing facility in Kyoto Prefecture, ensuring traceability from raw material intake to shipping. We standardize a process of packing after a foreign-matter removal step, and also handle issuing the specification sheets and microbial test reports health-food manufacturers require.<\/p>\n<div style=\"background:#fff8e7;border-left:5px solid #f0a040;padding:20px 24px;border-radius:4px;margin:24px 0\"><div style=\"font-size:12px;color:#c77a00;font-weight:700;letter-spacing:0.1em;margin-bottom:10px\">TIPS | kale-drying know-how<\/div><p style=\"margin:0;font-size:14px;line-height:1.85\">Kale's bitterness differs greatly by cultivar and maturity. Curly kale is on the more bitter side, while Tuscan kale (lacinato kale) is relatively mild. Agriture can select the cultivar to match the use and fine-tune how the bitterness comes out via drying temperature. For green-drink uses, the balance with drinkability is the key to development.<\/p><\/div>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Use cases and adoption examples<\/h2>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Raw material for green drinks and green juices<\/h3>\n<p>Dried kale is a use frequently consulted about as the main raw material for green drinks and green juices. 100%-domestic-kale green drinks are positioned as premium products in the market, and there's demand from health-food manufacturers as a raw material that can appeal to \"domestic raw material\" and \"additive-free.\"<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Blending ingredient for smoothies and protein drinks<\/h3>\n<p>Blending kale into the base of green smoothies or protein drinks adds nutritional value and green visual appeal. Combining it with sweet fruit like banana or apple makes an easy-to-drink green smoothie.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">An accent ingredient for salads and toppings<\/h3>\n<p>The crush type of dried kale, as a salad topping, becomes a crisp-textured, deep-green accent. It can also be eaten as is as kale chips, usable as a health-conscious snack ingredient too.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Knead-in ingredient for confectionery and bakery<\/h3>\n<p>Kneading kale powder into bread or cookie dough adds natural green color and nutritional value. In health-conscious bakery products promoting \"kale-infused,\" natural coloring without using colorings is possible.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Raw material for pet food and animal supplements<\/h3>\n<p>Kale is drawing attention as a vegetable raw material for handmade dog food and pet supplements too. The dried product is easy to measure and store, a form easy to incorporate into pet-food production lines.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Blend development with other dried vegetables<\/h3>\n<p>You can develop an original superfood mix by combining it with green ingredients like young barley grass, moringa, and ashitaba, or with dried fruit.<a href=\"https:\/\/agriture.jp\/en\/product\/\">List of dried vegetables<\/a>We can propose combinations with other ingredients from .<\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Commercial usage and rehydration<\/h2>\n<p>Dried kale is used differently by purpose. When using it as a raw material for green drinks or smoothies, dissolve the powder form directly in water or milk. For salad toppings, just scatter the crush type as is. When using it as a soup ingredient, adding it directly to boiling water rehydrates it in 2&#8211;3 minutes.<\/p>\n<p>For storage, airtight storage away from light, heat, and humidity is best. Chlorophyll fades easily under light in particular, so we recommend storing it in light-blocking packaging. After opening, use it up promptly, or reduce air contact with a zip bag to keep quality longer.<\/p>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" style=\"margin-top:2em\">Related cases and articles<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/agriture.jp\/en\/powder\/kale-powder\/\">Kale powder<\/a>(powder-version product page)<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/agriture.jp\/en\/product\/\">List of dried-vegetable and herb products<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/agriture.jp\/en\/wholesale-oem\/\">For consultations on dried vegetable and powder OEM here<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<div class=\"p-blogParts post_content\" data-partsid=\"2831\">\n<div class=\"swell-block-fullWide pc-py-20 sp-py-20 alignfull\" style=\"background-color:#ffffff\"><div class=\"swell-block-fullWide__inner l-container\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center is-style-section_ttl u-mb-ctrl u-mb-10\">Product catalog showing the items we handle<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\">Flexible support from small lots to large lots<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns are-vertically-aligned-center\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-vertically-aligned-center\" style=\"flex-basis:30%\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large size_xs\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/agriture.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/DSC_4178-Edit-edited-1-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\u4e7e\u71e5\u91ce\u83dc\" class=\"wp-image-110\" srcset=\"https:\/\/agriture.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/DSC_4178-Edit-edited-1-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/agriture.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/DSC_4178-Edit-edited-1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/agriture.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/DSC_4178-Edit-edited-1-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/agriture.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/DSC_4178-Edit-edited-1-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/agriture.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/DSC_4178-Edit-edited-1-2048x1365.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-vertically-aligned-center\" style=\"flex-basis:30%\">\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list -list-under-dashed\">\n<li>Sold in small lots from 100g<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Handling heirloom vegetables from across Japan<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Dried fruits and herbs also supported<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-vertically-aligned-center\" style=\"flex-basis:30%\">\n<div class=\"swell-block-button -size-l is-style-btn_normal\"><a href=\"https:\/\/agriture.noco.sale\/share\/d\/01KT67ZHHNQF9MZ0RKRGQA92MQ\" class=\"swell-block-button__link\"><span>Download here<\/span><\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Frequently asked questions<\/h2>\n<div style=\"border-bottom:1px solid #e0ead8;padding:18px 0\"><h3 style=\"color:#2c5f2d;margin:0 0 10px;font-size:16px;border-left:3px solid #2c5f2d;padding-left:12px\">Q.

Is a spec with reduced bitterness possible?<\/h3><p style=\"margin:0\">A. By selecting the cultivar and adjusting drying temperature, bitterness intensity can be controlled to some degree. For green-drink uses prioritizing drinkability, we can propose selecting a mild cultivar and a drying profile that curbs how the bitter components come out.<\/p><\/div>\n<div style=\"border-bottom:1px solid #e0ead8;padding:18px 0\"><h3 style=\"color:#2c5f2d;margin:0 0 10px;font-size:16px;border-left:3px solid #2c5f2d;padding-left:12px\">Q. Can it be blended with other green ingredients?<\/h3><p style=\"margin:0\">A. We support pre-blending with green ingredients like young barley grass, moringa, ashitaba, and spinach. We can also discuss formulation design for superfood mixes and green powder blends.<\/p><\/div>\n<div style=\"border-bottom:1px solid #e0ead8;padding:18px 0\"><h3 style=\"color:#2c5f2d;margin:0 0 10px;font-size:16px;border-left:3px solid #2c5f2d;padding-left:12px\">Q.
