Survival skills project


Reason: The Europeans must have pickled their vegetable/Fruits so that they could use it during their long voyages. When you pickle your food, you're actually preserving it. After preserving foods you can use it for like 1 or 2 years.

Summary: So we demonstrated in the video how to pickle some vegetables like carrots successfully.

Steps:
First, you have to boil the vegetables till they are tender.
Second, sterilize the jars by boiling it in hot water for about 30-40 min.third, in a pan, combine vinegar, salt, sugar, water and mustard seeds and boil it. After you boil those things, add any vegetables to it and put it in the jar. Make sure the level of the liquid is above the vegetables. Then wait till it cools and then you have to seal it tightly. This pickle can be used for an year.

    I think this is the most thorough and clear how-to video of the class. Make sure to relax in front of the camera next time. Still, It's like you are professional picklers. I would have like the video quality (especially sound) to be a little better, but I really like the elements you added: music, pictures, animations. You followed the assignment closely, and I believe that you understood the purpose well. The only other thing I wish you could have done was bring sample to class. Did actually to to pickle? Is it possible to bring a sample to class someday?
    Thanks for your work.
