How To

How to preserve food in a survival situation

To preserve food in an emergency situation, drying is the best option. Drying food makes them last longer by removing moisture. It also reduces bacteria growth.

Dried fruits are great for snacking on during an emergency because they don't require any preparation. They're easy to carry around, and you can eat as much as you want 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 could use a solar oven to dry all sorts of foods, including meat, fish, vegetables, and grains.

When preserving food, it is essential to make sure that the container is airtight. This prevents oxygen entering the container and spoiling it. 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, you should add vinegar. Vinegar kills bacteria and inhibits mold growth.

First, cut the food into small pieces. You can either use scissors or a knife. Be sure to pack everything securely so no air can get inside.

Next, place the food in a bag. Cover the bag with plastic and let it dry somewhere warm.

After the food is dried, seal it in a container. Make sure that nothing touches the food.
