How we can preserve the food and it is healthy or not?
Answers
Answer:
Preserving foods for future use is essential as it keeps them away from disease causing pathogens. On the other hand, it prevents wastage. The most common methods of food preservation include smoking, salting, canning and freezing, among others.
Explanation:
Water Bath Canning. There are two ways to can your food. The first is a water bath method, which is used for acidic fruits, jams, jellies, syrups, and pickling. Water bath canning is immersing canning jars with food in a bath of boiling water, food must be 4.6 pH or lower to safely be canned at home.
2. Pressure canning. This is only safe way to can non-acidic food, vegetables, meat, soups, and combination recipes. The pressure canner allows the jars to reach a higher temperature than just boiling water, which is crucial to ensuring all bacteria (especially botulism, a fatal form of food poisoning) are killed.
3. Dehydrating. Dehydrated food takes very little storage space. It’s light weight enough to take with you on the go
