When you visit many homes,
you will find a sizable refrigerator where all sorts of edible items are
stored. Clearly, refrigeration is one of the popular ways to preserve food.
This said, the need for an alternative method to preserve food may arise due to
power interruption or faulty fridge. You won't allow your food items to gather
mucus or get spoilt. There are certain actions you can take to preserve the
foods. Here are some of the actions or techniques you can take.
Canning
Canning is a very old method of preserving that partially cooked
food to kill bacteria and seals it up until you're ready to eat it. So, next
time you have excess food and you cannot refrigerate it, don't throw it away or
let it spoil, simply can it for later.
Drying
Drying is considered to be the easiest and least
labour-intensive way to preserve food. Since bacteria thrive in a moist
environment, drying is effective for food storage because it removes all water
and can be stored safely for a long period of time. You can buy a food
dehydrator, use a low-temperature oven or dry it in the sun.
Smoking
Smoking is one of the best ways to preserve meat and fish.
Although this technique may take time, using it will definitely make your meat
and fish last longer.
Salting
Salting can be used as a preservation method for meats, fishes
and vegetables. You simply coat your food with salt, and it works to prevent
bacteria growth.
