How To

How to keep food alive in a survival situation

The best way to preserve food in a long-term emergency is by drying it. Drying food helps preserve them for longer. It also reduces bacteria growth.

Because dried fruits don't require much preparation, they are great for snacking in an emergency. You can take them with you and eat as many as you wish without worrying about weight gain.

While you can dry fruit at your home using a dehydrator and a sun oven, it's much more convenient to do so in a commercial setting. You can dry any kind of food in a solar oven.

The most important thing when preserving food is to ensure it is airtight. This stops oxygen from entering the container, which can cause food to spoil. 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. Then follow this with vinegar. Vinegar kills bad bacteria and stops mold growth.

Start by cutting up your food in small pieces. You can use a kitchen knife or scissors. Pack everything carefully so there is no air in the container

Place the food into a plastic bag. Seal the bag and leave it somewhere warm until it dries completely.

Once food has dried completely, it can be stored in a sealed container. Make sure that nothing touches the food.
