STORING JERKY

• First wrap jerky in aluminum foil or wax paper, then store in a thick plastic
food storage bag, metal, glass or plastic containers. Remove as much air as
possible before sealing. Seal tightly.
• Vacuum sealing is ideal for keeping dried foods.
• Jerky should be stored in a cool, dark, dry place between 50-60
or lower. Jerky can be stored, if properly dried, at room temperature for 1 or 2
months. To extend shelf life to up to 6 months, store jerky in the freezer.
• Be sure to label and date all packages with contents, ingredients, original
weight and date processed.
• Keep a journal to help improve drying techniques.

RE-HYDRATING

While it is not necessary to reconstitute your dried foods, you can do so with ease.
Vegetables can be used as a side dish or in recipes very effectively after being
reconstituted in the following way.
• Dehydrated food can be re-hydrated by soaking in cold water for 3-5 minutes.
Use 1 cup of water for 1 cup of dehydrated food. Once re-hydrated, the food can
be cooked normally. Soaking foods in warm water will speed up the process,
however, it may result in loss of flavor.
• Dehydrated fruits and vegetables can be soaked in cold water for 2-6 hours in the
refrigerator. WARNING! Soaking at room temperature allows harmful bacteria to
grow.
• Do not add seasoning. Adding salt or sugar during re-hydration may change the
flavor of the food.
• To make stewed fruits or vegetables, add 2 cups of water and simmer until
tender.
• Consume dehydrated foods as soon as possible once the storage container is
opened. Keep any unused portions in the refrigerator to avoid contamination.
