Name three traditional methods of preserving foods and give an example for each method?
Here are three traditional methods of preserving foods with examples:
1. Drying: Removing moisture inhibits the growth of bacteria and mold.
* Example: Sun-drying tomatoes or fruits like apricots and figs.
2. Salting: Salt draws moisture out of food, creating an environment where bacteria can't thrive.
* Example: Salting fish or meats like beef jerky.
3. Fermentation: Microorganisms like bacteria or yeast break down food, creating an acidic or alcoholic environment that discourages spoiling.
* Example: Making sauerkraut (fermented cabbage) or kimchi (fermented vegetables).
