halal

halal

(of food) prepared according to Islamic law

What is "halal"?

Halal refers to dietary guidelines adhered to by Muslims in accordance with Islamic law. This encompasses not only what foods are permissible to eat but also how those foods are prepared and obtained. Halal meat, for example, must come from animals slaughtered in a specific manner, with the name of Allah invoked at the time of slaughter. In halal slaughter, the animal's throat must be cut above the esophagus, just below the trachea, to ensure a swift and humane death that minimizes the animal's suffering. This cut severs the major blood vessels in the neck while leaving the spinal cord intact, facilitating the rapid loss of blood from the body. Additionally, halal foods exclude certain items such as pork and alcohol.

Additionally, kosher meat must be slaughtered in a humane manner by a trained individual known as a shochet, and the meat must undergo a process of salting and rinsing to remove blood. Dairy and meat products are kept separate, and certain foods, such as pork and shellfish, are prohibited.

food that has had all its water removed to make it last longer

What is "dehydrated food"?

Dehydrated food refers to food that has had the majority of its water content removed through a dehydration process. This process involves removing moisture from the food item, typically by air drying or using heat, to preserve it for extended storage periods. Dehydrated foods can include fruits, vegetables, meats, and even prepared meals like soups and stews. Removing moisture helps prevent bacterial growth and spoilage, allowing the food to be stored for longer periods without refrigeration. Dehydrated foods are often lightweight and compact, making them popular choices for camping, hiking, emergency preparedness, and other situations where fresh food may not be readily available. They can be rehydrated by adding water before consumption, restoring them to a more palatable texture and flavor.
