You can’t rot my food if its already rotten!
-Fermenting

[Bobanob]

"Now where the hell did i bury my meat again.."

[alfa_kenny_body]

And my absolute favourite: eating, preserve food in your stomach so sneaky colleagues and lying family members can't steal your precious meal

[masterplanet]

With the ancient freezing one, it would be awesome to find a multi hundred or thousand year old food storage with technically still edible meat inside.

The problem with Roman sweetening is that, when honey was not available, the type of sugar they used contained lead.

To review:
5) remove water with the sun,
4) remove water with salt,
3) stop water with cold,
2) kill bugs in the water with alcohol, &
1) remove water with sugar.
COOL.

As an African whose experienced many cultures in and out the continent i feel drying meat is as old as humanity itself. You can't put a date and location on such a universal concept.

🔥🐷🔥 To Everyone: Pickling is NOT the same as fermenting. Fermenting promotes microbial growth, pickling kills microbes. Fermenting allows for micro nutrients (like vitamins) to be available for digestion; pickling destroys micronutrients due to the boiling process from heat (expect for refrigerated pickling, which is a new method with the advent of cold storage). Hopefully that clarifies things 👍🏾

as a swede, during the winter if we don't have enough fridge or freezer space for something (after christmas, for example) my mum just goes "fuck it. put it out on the balcony."

edit: I love people sharing their own stories of keeping stuff outside in the replies. don't mean to be sappy but it brings me joy knowing that so many of us around the world share little things in our daily lives :) a reminder that we're all humans doing the same silly human things

[garethalford]

You forgot Pickleing stuff in vinegar in an air tight jar with herbs and Spices

Fun fact! Probably the oldest cured recipe in Egypt is the Feseekh which dates back to ancient Egypt and Pharaonic timed

It's a dish made by drying raw gray mullet in the sun then dipping it in extremely salty water for weeks, the following process and details are hard to find as this is a tradition passed down from one generation to another, making it so that there's entire families and villages who are renowned for their Feseekh, from either trusted for being consistently safe to eat, or being extremely delicious. The job title is Fasakhani.

It's traditionally eaten for the Shemu festival to welcome spring when the nile recedes, and the name has phonetically changed to Sham el Neseem, meaning "To smell the breeze"

Smoking meats actually originated much earlier in the Paleolithic era, and has been practiced by many other peoples, such as Native Americans

[LelakiKerdus]

Really, most of traditional cuisines were revolved around how to preserved food.

Take Rendang for example. Once cooked, which usually took at least six hours, rendang can be stored for months since the cooking process actually removes most of the water from the meat. It looks wet because of the fat and oil from the cooking process. Not to mention the tons of spices.

[wackwabbit]

we still preserve the meat by drying, even tho we already have fridge, but drying is more reliable..also jerky is delicious :)

[ivyshadesnursery]

Came back to this vid to say thank you. This vid saved my ass in one of the questions in my biology exam about preservation of meat

[mahmoudsalaheddine]

So, how did meat get preserved if it’s sitting out in the sun? Wouldn’t it risk just rotting out in the open sun? (Under the assumption that raw meat was dried)

[orphanslayer]

Ots nice to have these kinds of videos after 1 hour of scrolling through brain rot

[tomasasevedo]

Another cool way is by putting food in bogs (which is just a type of wetland), because bogs have low temps, the water is highly acidic, and there is a limited amount of oxygen in bogs, they are great for preserving stuff. So people would put their food in bogs to try and store them, and they work really well. There was some butter that was found in a bog that was 4, 000 years old, and was preserved so well that it was still edible.

In tropical countries: curing foods with ton of spices

[Sleep_required]

Beef Jerky never ate it I prefer the better version in S.A it's called "biltong" or bull tongue in English, I think (no its not made of a bull's tongue it's just the name) and there is another choice called "droë wors" which means dried sausage They come in different flavors as well but they are delicious, can anyone describe what beef Jerky tastes like?
