The storage of food is done in a suitable environment. This often means a dry, cool place. The place in which food is stored is often a pantry (a room in the house, near the kitchen) or seperate food storage room (ie above ground, or even underground (even mere burial is possible) ). As such, atleast 1 food storage technique is often employed (cooling). The following list describes additional techniques we can use:
- Drying
- Jellying
- Pickling and Jugging
- Smoking
- Salting, and Sugaring
- Adding of other (artificial) food additives
- Canning and bottling/wecking[1]
- Biopreservation (ie keeping animals alive or using bacteria)
- Vacuum packing or packing in a modified atmosphere (ie ULO)
- Refrigerating and Freezing
