How To

How to preserve food in a survival scenario

Drying food is the best way to preserve it in an emergency situation. Drying food makes them last longer by removing moisture. It also inhibits the growth of bacteria.

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.

It is possible to dry fruit at-home using a drying rack, but a solar oven would be more practical. You can dry almost any food with a solar oven, including meat, fish and vegetables.

Airtightness is the most important aspect of food preservation. This will prevent oxygen from getting into the container and spoiling food. Preservatives are not necessary if the container is tightly sealed.

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

First, cut the food into small pieces. You can use scissors or a knife. Make sure you pack everything well so that no air gets inside the container.

Place the food into a plastic bag. Keep the food in the bag until it dries completely.

After the food is dried, seal it in a container. It is important not to let food contact other things.
