Review: The Forgotten Skills of Self-Sufficiency Used by the Mormon Pioneers

With a name like <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1599555107/ref=as_li_ss_tl?ie=UTF8&amp;tag=prepper-20&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;camp=217145&amp;creative=399373&amp;creativeASIN=1599555107">The Forgotten Skills of Self-Sufficiency Used by the Mormon Pioneers</a><img style="border: none !important; margin: 0px !important;" src="http://www.assoc-amazon.com/e/ir?t=&amp;l=as2&amp;o=1&amp;a=1599555107&amp;camp=217145&amp;creative=399373" alt="" width="1" height="1" border="0" />, can you blame me?  This was obviously a book stocked for a local audience, so I hope our non-Utah readers can find a copy.  Author <a title="Caleb Warnock's blog" href="http://calebwarnock.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Caleb Warnock</a> is a local (Alpine, Utah) writer, year-round gardener, and teacher of "Forgotten Skills" classes.  It also helped when I noticed one of the people listed in the special thanks section is a friend of mine, and <a title="Eric James Stone" href="http://www.ericjamesstone.com/" target="_blank">local sci-fi author</a> (how's that for a tight-knit Utah Valley).

Curing meat
Food Food Storage

Curing meat

Curing meat is an age old process.  It has been used to preserve, intensify flavors, and make unpalatable cuts of meat acceptable for consumption. Most of us don't worry about the preservation aspect so much anymore, but if you've ever made a marinade then you've dabbled in curing (perhaps with out even knowing it).  In this post I'm going to go over some of the ingredients needed to cure meat and introduce a couple of salt mixtures that can be very useful in curing your meats.  I'll also go over some things that could be kept in your food storage.<br /> <!--more--><br /> First of all there are a couple of items that are needed to cure meat.  You don't have to use each of these items when you cure, but they all play an important part in the curing process.
