Drying is a method of food preservation that works by removing water from the food, which prevents the growth of microorganisms and decay.
Water is usually removed by evaporation (air drying, sun drying, smoking or wind drying) but, in the case of freeze-drying, food is first frozen and then water is removed by sublimation.
Dried and salted reindeer meat is a traditional Lappish food.
