How To

How to preserve food in a survival scenario

In a long-term emergency, drying food is the best method to preserve it. Drying foods removes moisture which makes them last longer. It also decreases the risk of bacteria growth.

Dried fruits are great for snacking on during an emergency because they don't require any preparation. Dried fruits are easy to transport and can be eaten as much as you like without worrying about weight gain.

You can make dried fruit at home using a dehydrator, but if you have access to a solar oven, this would be ideal. You could use a solar oven to dry all sorts of foods, including meat, fish, vegetables, and grains.

Food preservation is best done by making sure it is airtight. This stops oxygen entering the food and spoiling it. Preservatives are not necessary if the container is tightly sealed.

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

Start by cutting up your food in small pieces. You can use a kitchen knife or scissors. Be sure to pack everything securely so no air can get inside.

Place the food in a plastic bag. Cover the bag with plastic and let it dry somewhere warm.

You can seal the container once the food has dried. Take care not to let any food touch it.
