Fresh fish rapidly deteriorates unless some way can be found to preserve it. Drying is a
method of food preservation that works by removing water from the food, which inhibits the growth of microorganisms. Open air drying using sun and wind has been practiced since ancient times to
preserve food. In which case, water is usually removed by evaporation (air drying, sun drying, smoking or wind drying) Bacteria, yeasts and molds need the water in the food to grow, and drying
effectively prevents them from surviving in the food.
Fish are preserved through such traditional methods as drying, smoking and salting.
[2] The oldest traditional way of preserving fish was to let the wind and sundry it. Drying
food is the world's oldest known preservation method, and dried fish has a storage life of several years. The method is cheap and effective in suitable climates; the work can be done by the
fisherman and family, and the resulting product is easily transported to market.
