| Different traditional ways of preserving food have been around since ancient times and other modern methods have emerged as technology evolves. If you want to prepare for an emergency, it’s worth knowing a food preservation method or two so you can keep your stockpile full of supplies. (h/t to IAmCountryside.com) Food preservation ensures a reliable food supply year-round. In the past, people encountered freezing winters or they wanted to live somewhere else but had to bring large amounts of food with them until they reached their destination. Soon, the Industrial Revolution brought new ways of preserving food. But as the supermarket became more common, the knowledge of different food preservation methods waned. This knowledge encountered a resurgence as humanity acknowledged that food preservation is still important. While there is little to no risk of starvation now, as a prepper knowing some of these methods can give you the freedom to eat quality food year-round and after a disaster. Canning. Nicolas Appert is credited for discovering how to preserve fruits in jars. During the Napoleonic Wars, soldiers and sailors ate salt-preserved meats and whatever fresh fruits and vegetables they could find. Unfortunately, depending on the seasons and location, these items were often scarce. Because Napoleon needed to feed his troops better, he offered 12,000 francs to whoever could develop a new and safe way of preserving food. He also wanted the food to be nutritious, portable and dependable. Appert, who was a French confectioner, observed that food sealed in containers and then heated was safe to eat until the container opened. Human knowledge is under attack!

During each economic recession in the U.S., home canning and commercially canned foods gain popularity because they give financially stressed households a chance to store food or spend less on their meals. Cold storage. The use of snow and ice to preserve food goes back to the Romans who dug snow pits and insulated them with grass. Persians also stored ice in pits called yakhchals. In the U.S., ice houses were built on estates or small and separate buildings for storing food. The ice industry flourished in the early 1800s when inventions like the horse-drawn ice cutter and insulated ships ensured safer and more profitable harvesting. Families used iceboxes to keep food cold. For a century, families received ice delivered to them from larger ice houses. The first gas-powered refrigerator appeared in 1911, but households in America using electricity had to wait until 1927. Newer inventions and developments made refrigerators safer, more efficient and more affordable. The following years saw more developments, such as refrigerated railroad cars, refrigerated trailers for semi trucks, small fridges in college dorms and room-sized units for restaurants and grocery stores.

Through dehydration, you can prevent the growth of bacteria, mold and yeast that cause food spoilage. Removing moisture allows food to last months or years while also retaining many nutrients. The earliest known food dehydration was practiced in 12,000 B.C. People in modern-day the Middle East and Asia laid food out under the sun, where desert air desiccated it before storage. During the American Civil War, food was dehydrated for commercial use. However, its quality was poor and its popularity plummeted after the war. In modern times, dehydration is once again a thriving industry not because of war, but in preparation for one. Preppers also dehydrated food to prepare for natural disasters, economic downturns or other emergencies. Freeze-drying. Freeze-drying might seem like one of the newest food preservation methods because Arsene d’Arsonval developed the process of lyophilization in 1906. This process involves freezing the food and dropping the surrounding pressure so ice turns directly to vapor. However, freeze-drying has existed as early as the Incan Empire. Frost-resistant potato varieties are exposed to freezing nights in the Andes and then brought into the sunlight. Both sunlight and trampling by foot eliminate water and remove skins from the potatoes, which allows them to freeze again. The process produces a dried, wrinkled, pelletized potato product that can last years. Chuno is then used as flour, in soups or desserts. While you can use appliances to freeze-dry food at home, you can also purchase freeze-dried food for your stockpile to skip the hassle of the whole process. Freezing. Freezing has been used for centuries. Freezing food for commercial transport started sometime in 1885 when sailors packed frozen chicken and geese into insulated containers before shipping from Russia to London. This occurred during winter months and the introduction of cold air freezing plants in Russia enabled the industry. While it might seem redundant to learn about these different food preservation methods amid modern technology and the availability of different products, doing so can help extend your garden harvests into the winter.
