How To

How to preserve food in a survival scenario

To preserve food in an emergency situation, drying is the best option. Drying foods removes moisture which makes them last longer. It also helps to reduce the growth of bacteria.

Dry fruits are great snacks for emergencies because they don’t require preparation. They are portable and can be taken with you wherever you go.

Although you can dry fruits at home with a dehydrator or oven, a solar oven is a better option. You can dry any kind of food in a solar oven.

It is vital to make sure food is sealed tightly when it is being preserved. This stops oxygen from entering the container, which can cause food to spoil. If you seal the container tightly enough, there won't be any need to add preservatives.

If you do decide to add preservatives, try adding salt first. Salt prevents mold growth. Then follow this with vinegar. Vinegar kills bad bacteria and stops mold growth.

You will need to first cut your food into small pieces. Either a pair of scissors or a sharp knife are acceptable. You can use scissors or a knife to pack your items well.

Next, place the food in a bag. Then seal the bag and place it somewhere warm to dry completely.

After the food is dried, seal it in a container. Be careful not to let anything touch the food.
