rehydrating
Restoring lost moisture
Rehydrating is restoring moisture to something dried out.
You rehydrate dried mushrooms by soaking them, or rehydrate yourself after exercise by drinking fluids.
The word applies equally to food preparation and bodily recovery: I'm just rehydrating after that run.
Rehydrating skin involves applying moisturizer to restore suppleness.
