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 helps preserve them for longer. It also reduces bacteria growth.

Dry fruits are great snacks for emergencies because they don’t require preparation. They're easy to carry around, and you can eat as much as you want without worrying about weight gain.

Although you can dry fruits at home with a dehydrator or oven, a solar oven is a better option. 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. 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, add vinegar. Vinegar kills off harmful bacteria and stops mold from growing.

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

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

Once food has dried completely, it can be stored in a sealed container. You must be careful not to allow anything to touch the food.
