last the longest hi it's AlaskaGranny Alaska Prepper do you ever look in your prepper
pantry food stockpile and wonder what are the 10 most important foods what are the foods that would
be most useful to me that i want to make sure that i have in my prepper pantry food stockpile today
i wanted to share with you the 10 foods that i decided to make sure that i always have on
hand in my prepper pantry food stockpile so that i can make basic meals for my family no matter the
emergency circumstances of course if your power is out you don't have an emergency way to cook
then these foods are not going to be as useful as if you had foods that are easy to just open
and eat in a grid down type of an environment but on an everyday basis where you had access to clean
drinking water and you had a way to prepare and cook foods these are the 10 must have food items
i would most want to have on hand prepper pantry food stockpile the first food is all-purpose flour
of course it's all-purpose because you can use it for so many things from bread to biscuits pancakes
and just about anything that you could want to make out of flour products you could make with
all-purpose flour when you bring your flour home from the store make sure that you put it in the
freezer for a few days grains naturally include little weevil bugs that are already living in the
grain and so if you put them in the freezer for a few days then it will kill those up some people
then are concerned that the bugs could hatch later and so they do a freeze thaw freeze again however
you're concerned decide how many times you would want to freeze it next you want to seal your flour
in an airtight container you can put flour into a five gallon bucket you can put flour into an
airtight canister you can store flour in a mylar bag you can use oxygen absorbers you could even
store flour in canning jars and put the lid on it and seal it with your foodsaver vacuum
store your prepper pantry stockpile food the best you can the most important point is that you have
some food on hand next i like to keep a stack of yeast products i have active yeast i also
like using the fast rising yeast sometimes you're in a hurry or there are just certain
things that you might want to bake that might turn out a little better with the fast rising yeast
so look over what kind of foods you would want to make and decide how much yeast you would like
to have on hand and what kind of yeast you have and know that you can store yeast in the freezer
can help extend the life of your yeast the next prepper pantry food i like to find in
my prepper pantry stockpile are milk products perhaps you want some cans of evaporated milk
maybe you would like to have some powdered milk my favorite powdered milk is Nido Fortificada
but it doesn't last as long as non-fat dry milk you can also buy the shelf stable milk
it's UHT milk it comes in a carton and it can last for a year just in your pantry
i like to store a few UHT shelf stable cartons of milk in my refrigerator and i find that unopened
UHT shelf stable cartons of milk last much longer than the date on them and they have never been a
problem that i haven't had them last so if you like to use milk find a way that works for you
next in my prepper pantry i like to have a stockpile of canned meat canned meats come in so
many varieties you can choose canned meat that you enjoy eating do you like tuna salmon crab sardines
you can find fish in a can how about chicken or turkey what about roast beef you sometimes you can
find beef strips that are spicy with peppers you can find pulled pork and of course the
old standbys ham Spam and sometimes they call it Treet meat or luncheon meat and there's all kinds
of combinations in between figure out what your favorite meat is and then stockpile some canned
meat in your prepper pantry stockpile canned meat has usually a long shelf life and it can last far
longer than the date on the package but you always want to store your food in a cool dark dry place
you want to rotate stored food you want to be using stored food rotating it to the front of
the shelf and replacing it and that is how you have a working pantry pasta is a wonderful food
to include in your must-have prepper pantry stockpile list you can get all kinds of shapes
and sizes pasta macaroni noodles steer clear though of egg noodles because they have eggs
in them they're not going to last as long as other kinds of pastas noodles macaroni then think about
the space pasta noodles macaroni take up look at this big old package of thin spaghetti which
is actually going to cook very quickly compared to the space required for something like penne
pasta if space is a concern get the long straight noodles you can break them in half and store them
in a canning jar recently I found a banker's box and I was able to load it up with pasta they fit
in the banker's box perfectly i can still go back and vacuum seal pasta noodles macaroni or put them
in a mylar bag and the addition of the bankers box is going to help pasta macaroni noodles last for a
long long time i have never had pasta that wasn't edible in my house i've stored pasta for decades
and it has always been fine to eat but once again store it in a cool dark dry place and if you live
in a hot environment where pantry bugs can be a problem you might stick pasta into your freezer
for a few days and then make sure you don't store pasta macaroni noodles in just a cardboard box
or a paper wrapper because they will get into trouble with packaging getting leaks getting stale
things spilled on pasta food and little bugs get in there so seal pasta macaroni noodles well so
they'll last the longest my next prepper pantry stockpile favorite food is oatmeal oatmeal is
very versatile you can make oatmeal of course but you can make muffins you can add it into meatloaf
you can do all kinds of things with oatmeal you can even turn your oatmeal into oat flour
if you have gluten sensitivities or other dietary restrictions with gluten perhaps you want to look
into how you could make your own oat flour using your oatmeal that's cheap and easy to
store oatmeal is one of those foods that will last nearly forever as long as you store it into an
airtight container i never leave oatmeal in this package i pour it into something that's airtight
and seal it well lots of people love peanut butter and it's easy to store in your prepper pantry
and you can eat peanut butter right off of a spoon you can spread it on bread or crackers or you can
even bake peanut butter into cookies peanut butter has a lot of protein and nutrition but if you have
allergies to peanuts make sure that you find some sort of a nut that can last in your prepper pantry
i have actually had peanut butter go rancid so i try to rotate peanut butter within the date on
the package because nobody wants to go to their prepper pantry and find that their food is no
longer safe or good to eat and then you've wasted your resources by allowing your food to spoil
so any food that you're willing to store you should be willing to eat and then you need to be
using it rotating it and replacing it stock up on canned tomatoes they're extremely versatile
you can already buy them in so many kinds of varieties from plain dye stewed tomatoes
fire roasted some that are spiced up with basil and oregano you can find chili ready tomatoes
you can even find tomatoes like rotel that have i think it's jalapenos in them that are extra spicy
so look for varieties of tomatoes think about the recipes that you make and how canned tomatoes are
going to be the most useful it wouldn't be a prepper pantry without beans so of
course i have lots and lots of beans beans come in so many different varieties figure
out the beans that you like to eat those are the ones that you should have on hand
you can buy dry beans in one pound bags you can buy dry beans in giant bags but store them in
an airtight container beans like split peas and lentils are also very good for the bean category
they're legumes you would cook them the same way but they don't take as long split peas lentils
are loaded with protein and they can be very delicious and a nice change of pace
even if you're just having beans beans beans you can have a different bean every day for many days
and then your meals aren't all the same i also stock up on canned beans whether they're baked
beans chili or they're just the individual type of beans like navy bean kidney beans garbanzo beans
you can open a can of those and add them into an easy recipe and then you're halfway there if you
buy some baked beans or chili that has beans in it they're just so many ways they're so versatile
when you're storing dried beans know that one pound of dried beans is equal to about three and
a half cans of prepared beans so that'll give you an idea of how versatile your dried beans can be
and how far you can stretch them in your prepper pantry of course there's rice most people say rice
and beans at the beginning but i decided to count down and do beans and rice last because all of the
other varieties of foods are very important to have on hand rice can be cooked in 20 minutes if
you think the power might go out store some Minute rice because even if you can't cook you could pour
water over Minute Rice and soak it and then you'll be able to eat Minute rice you're not really going
to be able to eat regular rice unless you can pour boiling water over it and have it do a little bit
of cooking there's so many ways that you can serve your rice you can serve it with beans of course
but you can also add some tomatoes and make a spanish rice you can add a can of meat you can do
all kinds of things with rice to make bigger better fuller meals and rice is cheap it's long
lasting stored in an airtight container stored properly rice can last for 30 years or even more
