off of our meat which makes this a very weird canned food.
What did we do before canning?
- Freeze in cold climate. Dry in the sun in warm.
- Fermenting:
- Next level food preservation Iceland Greenlandic shark dates back to the Vikings. Abundant but toxic, the headless shark was buried in a hole with stones sand and gravel. Liquids would leak out of the shark over 6 to 12 weeks. Then the shark meat was hung to dry for months.
How to can: the speed version
- water bath canning
- fill jars with acidic foods (tomatoes or add vinegar) cover with lids and boil until a seal forms under the lid
- the acid and vacuum (no air) makes for an environment where bacteria can’t thrive.
Danger Will Robinson: what NOT to do when canning
- doing your own recipe
- using a jar that isn’t for canning like a mayo jar…its gonna explode
- let’s talk about botulism
- CDC website
- botulism is a toxin that attacks the nerves
- weak muscles eventually affecting breathing.
- Improperly stored or processes canned foods (usually homemade) are the biggest culprit. Although store bought can be infected too through, that’s most often a damaged can.
