Food Storage
Dried foods should be allowed to condition before being placed into
a storage container. Generally, let the dehydrated food stand about 1
week in a dry, well ventilated and protected are. This conditioning time
allows for further drying and removes most of the remaining moisture
in the food. Dried food can be placed into clean, dry, insect resistant
containers, preferably glass jars. Heavy gauge plastic freezer bags can
also be used. Eliminate as much air as possible before sealing the bag.
When properly used, vacuum sealers provide ideal storage. The less
air present, the less potential for the formation of molds. Stored foods
should be checked monthly for insects and mold. If mold is present,
discard the whole container and start over, double checking with your
next batch to make sure that moisture levels in food are low and the
container is air tight.
