How To

How to preserve food in a survival scenario

It is best to dry food when it is in urgent need. Drying foods removes moisture which makes them last longer. It also reduces the possibility of bacteria growth.

Dried fruits can be used as snacks in emergencies and don't require cooking. They are lightweight and easy to take with you. You don't have to worry about weight gain.

A dehydrator can be used to dry fruit at home, but it is more efficient to use a solar oven. 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 will prevent oxygen from getting into the container and spoiling food. You don't need to use preservatives if the container is sealed tightly enough.

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

You will need to first cut your food into small pieces. You can use a kitchen knife or scissors. Make sure you pack everything well so that no air gets inside the container.

Next, place the food in a bag. Seal the bag and leave it somewhere warm until it dries completely.

Once the food is dry, you can store it in a sealed container. Make sure that nothing touches the food.
