You must know the shelf life of food before you dehydrate it. Fruits and vegetables can be stored at room temp for several weeks, but they can also stay fresher for longer periods. It is possible to freeze vegetables and fruits, in addition to drying them. These foods can then be used in many recipes, once they have been dried. However, they may need a few steps of rehydration before they can be used as part of a meal.

When drying food, it is important to use clean equipment. To prevent bacteria, mold, and yeast from multiplying, you must be sterile before using a dehydrator. This will prevent bacteria and yeast from growing and spoiling food. While you don't need a sterile dress when dehydrating food, it is not necessary to wear one. Disposable gloves can help prevent contamination.

What Are the Types of Water Sources Available?

While you're in the wild you will find many water sources. These water sources may be available all year depending on where you live. Or they might be only accessible during the winter. You will need to take into account several factors when selecting the right water source.

First, consider whether or not you will be able to obtain fresh water. This means you'll need to consider whether you'll have easy access to a stream, lake, river, pond, spring, ocean, or rainwater. The second thing you need to consider is whether you will have clean water. Because it is difficult to treat water contaminated with urine and feces, you should not collect it. Third, you'll need to think about how much water you plan on needing. There are many factors that will affect the amount of water you need. These include how long you plan to be stranded, how hot or dry it is outside, how big your family, and how much you have. Fourth, you need to decide how to transport the water.
