Emergency preparedness requires home food storage for times of crisis
or necessity, and freeze
dried food is an excellent option for this category.
More nutritious, tasty and attractive than MREs and
canned food, freeze dried food is made in a vacuum by removing all of
the liquid from an entree, dessert or single-ingredient food, such as
strawberries.
Because of the unique method in which
it is made, freeze dried meals include all the seasonings, spices and
flavors of a well-prepared entree. When the food is prepared and eaten,
it will taste basically the same as it did the day it was initially
cooked, prior to the freeze drying process.
To
extend the shelf life of your home food storage, simply keep the
containers in a cool, dry place and do not break the seals or open the
containers until time of use. To prepare, follow the simple
instructions on the container. All you do is measure out an amount of
freeze dried entree or item, customized to the number of servings you
need, and add water. After allowing the food to sit, covered, for a few
minutes, it's time to eat! While any clean water will do, you should
use hot water for hot entrees for taste's sake.
One
of the best ways to build your home food storage is to buy bulk freeze
dried food, allowing you the best cost savings and variety.
There are a great variety of entrees from which to choose -- from Eggs
& Bacon or Granola with Blueberries to Chicken Teriyaki or Beef
Stroganoff with Meat.
