This is a great video and great suggestions. My only thing is, you've got canned pineapple juice in there. The canning process destroys the bromelain. I learned this the hard way when I tried to make jello with fresh pineapple. It wouldn't gel! That's because bromelain inhibits gelatin from forming. Thus, they say you MUST use canned pineapple if you want to make pineapple jello. So canned pineapple juice actually has no bromelain because it's been killed off in the heat process. It's still pretty high in vitamin C and tastes great though. I certainly wouldn't turn it away in a boogaloo situation like we're talking about but maybe best to get a freezer and freeze some fresh pineapple juice.

Turmeric is loaded with micro nutrients and has even been known to aid in weight management. Dried minced onion, chili powder, paprika, garlic powder and onion powder are all great for flavoring food and can reduce the need to add a lot of salt to meals. These food stuffs will keep for a number of years, if stored properly. Dried herbs may also be stored, but their shelf life is limited to a couple of years. Still, they can be useful while they ARE good.

If you're going to stock up, definitely add a few buckets of beans, rice, oats, wheat, barley, and/or corn. I don't eat grains anymore, but I still keep those items because they will store well for decades, are better than nothing, can be used as animal feed, can be bartered, etc. Maybe don't make them the bulk of your store, but it would be wise to have some. I'm not keto but I do try to keep carbs down. Bagged frozen mixed vegetables dehydrate very well, and I recently discovered I can fit two large chopped, dehydrated cabbages in a 1/2 gallon jar. You can also dehydrate or can most meats. Because it is so low in fat, ground turkey dehydrates very well. I just saw a video of a woman who boiled her hamburger (for a different reason) and I realized it would be a great way to get cooked ground beef with minimal fat for dehydrating while also skimming the cooled tallow for later use.

You put the pasta (still in its store plastic bags) inside the mylar bag, seal it (removing as much air as possible) and place the bag and some silica gel packets in the bucket, then tighten the lid securely. You can also store pasta in glass mason jars, if you have the type with the rubber seals and metal clasp fastener. This type of storage will keep the pasta up to 10 years. You can store lots of dry foods using these two methods; beans, rice, flour, meal, salt, sugar, etc.

It’s nice that you care and want to help others but not everyone eats the same, so suggestions, although welcome, is not a one-size-fits-all. The #1 rule of being prepared is to store what you use and use what you store (keeping it rotated prevents spoilage). I do not store rice because I do not eat it. There are many options for flours, coconut flour, almond flour, acorn flour, etc. Flour can be made out of anything that can be dried. Honey, YES, it’s a great taste and can be used with many things. It’s one of the rare exceptions to me as a low-carb eater (carbs create hunger so I avoid them like the plague!). Raw salt only, pink salt preferred. Processed salt is unhealthy and causes a lot of medical problems. Coconut oil, YES, along with olive oil, avocado oil, bacon grease, and lard. Garlic & Onions are important to have and easy to grow. I could go on and on since I’ve lived a sustainable lifestyle for close to 70 years, but I’ll shut up now and go enjoy more of your videos.

I would add corn flour on the list, very filling polenta, it can be served instead of steak bread, vegetable stew, also in our country, when your throat hurts very much, it makes a very soft, fluid polenta, in which you add a cube of butter, and drink as hot as you can stand, or a hot, hot polenta, wrap in a towel and then apply on the chest, it helps a lot to detach the mucus, the polenta is made much faster than bread and has a lower caloric content than bread , also, matches and candles should not be missing , lentils are a very good substitute for beans, they cook faster and because there are people who bloat from beans, no matter how much water is washed and boiled, this will not happen with lentils

Nutritional values Buckwheat is a pseudo-cereal that does not contain gluten and is low in fat, having a significant amount of nutrients in relation to the number of calories it contains (155 calories for 1 cup of buckwheat flour). The ratio of fat in buckwheat is about 1 gram per cup of boiled buckwheat seeds, containing 0.2 g of saturated fat. These values represent monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats, both being considered healthy fats for the body. Buckwheat also does not contain carbohydrates, but is rich in healthy natural fiber. This food provides a sufficient amount of protein (7-21%, depending on environmental factors) and is rich in lysine, an essential amino acid used for protein biosynthesis. This plant beneficial to health has one of the highest amino acid scores (100) in the plant category and contains 59-70% starch. Buckwheat proteins are composed of several types of amino acids than wheat or other cereals, especially lysine. The human body cannot produce lysine naturally, so it needs to get it from food. Thiamine is a micronutrient found in buckwheat and has the role of helping carbohydrates to produce energy. It also contains niacin (beneficial for the digestive system, nerves and skin), copper, which helps make collagen and absorb iron, and zinc, which is important for supporting the immune system.

Nice to see someone else that likes to put up dry goods in canning jars.. I really don't get why everyone wants rice over pasta in there storage.... pasta made with out eggs air sealed lasts as long as rice.. it has more protein per serving .. more iorn per serving ...and more carbohydrates then rice.. it is also very versatile and easy to prepare then rice....

@@CountryLivingExperience Sorry about that...I guess 'hate' is a pretty strong word. Let's say 'definitely dislike.' I am single. I do everything the husband AND wife do on a homestead. I watch youtube for learning purposes. Usually people watch TV for entertainment or relaxation. I have learned it is paramount to watch MANY videos when trying to acquire new knowledge so that the knowledge I embrace and utilize is correct. I look for short videos so I can compare information. I might want to see what I need in my pantry, learn how to change the carburetor on the tiller and research how to repair a culvert that is washing out. All on a limited income. I want to learn what to do, do it and get it marked off the list. I have noticed some presenters get confused in either making a video that will transfer a block of information and a video that is almost a mini movie. I hope this is not a grouchy, cranky reply. I believe you wanted some honest input. There is a population of people out there in my same shoes who wake up everyday with an unbelievable 'to-do' list.

How do you feel about iodized salt? I know many people are against it. I personally prefer it when cooking. Iodine is extremely important to maintain a proper metabolism, and many (especially inland) areas have low levels of iodine in the soil, and thus low levels in the plants and animal products eating said plants. I would say a source of iodine is important in such a pantry? If not in the salt, then using dried nori (seaweed) sheets for flavor or in "sushi like" foods. The dried sheets last a long time if kept in a package or container with a desiccant. :)
@CountryLivingExperience
2 жыл бұрын
I don't like iodized salt because all other trace minerals are removed from it. It is simply NaCl with iodine added. Natural salts, especially Celtic sea salt, contain up to 94 minerals. You can get iodine other places. If you are growing your own food. I am not worried about it. I love Nori and so do my kids. I always have some at home.
