Off-Grid food part 2 – Bread

The next in a developing series by off-gridder Corey Naughton

In my last recipe (off-grid apple pie) I demonstrated how we can bake up some delicious goodies without the use of butter or oils. This is because the storage life of butters and oils tends to be short and for many of us it’s not plausible to produce our own. That’s why all my recipes use no liquid fats and are produced with products that have a long shelf life and/or come from your garden (to be a true off-gridder you need a garden and some chickens at the least).

This begs the question about what exactly is a “long shelf life”?

In my opinion, a truly shelf stable food item is anything that will last 10+ years when stored properly. “But Corey,” I can hear you ask: “the title of this article says it’s about bread and yeast only lasts 5 years at best.”

That’s why this recipe is for soda bread which uses only baking soda and baking powder to make the bread rise.
