To preserve foods one must get 5 gallons of ocean water in a sanitary bucket. put the bucket of ocean water in the sun until all of the water has evaporated. Remove the salt from the bottom of the bucket and put in a airtight container. Keep repeating this until one has enough salt to pack around the food one wishes to preserve.

What spices preserve food?
Well first of all, people in medieval ages used to salt their meats and fishes all the time. They would do this to preserve food for many months.

Salt is the primary exception, as salt can be used to draw moisture and bacteria do not grown well in saline environments. Hops in beer making is an example where an herb does have a preservative effect. Hops add bitterness and flavor to beer, and also improve its shelf life.
