How To

How to preserve food in a survival scenario

The best way to preserve food in a long-term emergency is by drying it. Drying food preserves it from moisture, making them last longer. It also helps to reduce the growth of bacteria.

Dried fruits can be used as snacks in emergencies and don't require cooking. They are portable and can be taken with you wherever you go.

A dehydrator can be used to dry fruit at home, but it is more efficient to use a solar oven. To dry any type of food, you could use a sun oven, such as meats, fish, vegetables and grains.

The most important thing when preserving food is to ensure it is airtight. This will prevent oxygen from getting into the container and spoiling food. The container can be sealed tight enough to prevent oxygen from entering the food.

If you do decide to add preservatives, try adding salt first. Salt prevents mold growth. Next, add vinegar. Vinegar is a good way to kill harmful bacteria and stop mold growth.

You will need to first cut your food into small pieces. You can use a knife or scissors. Be sure to pack everything securely so no air can get inside.

Next, place the food inside a plastic bag. Keep the food in the bag until it dries completely.

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