Charqui - from which the word "jerky" is derived - most likely evolved in Peru as a way of preserving game from a hunt. Early peoples eventually switched to beef when cattle became domesticated. To make charqui, boned and defatted meat was first sliced to about a quarter-inch thickness. These slices were then dipped in brine or rubbed with salt and rolled up in animal hides for 10 to 12 hours. This ensured that the meat absorbed the salt and released some of its juices. Finally, the strips were hung in the sun to dry and then were tied into bundles.

Beef jerky is quite popular in the US, as a snack food.

Can I post Images?

Solution
Images can indeed be shown in your posts. However, there is no facility at present for uploading images directly to this board. Therefore you must link to an image stored on a publicly accessible web server, e.g. http://www.some-website.net/my-picture.gif. You can neither link to pictures stored on your own PC (unless it is a publicly accessible server) nor to images stored behind authentication mechanisms such as Hotmail or Yahoo mailboxes, password-protected sites, etc. To display images use the BBCode [img] [/img] tags.


You can join a group that has picture uploading. Try http://groups.msn.com/TheRavensRealm The site is hosted by the same person who created A2K. You can upload pictures to that site, and then post the pictures from that site to A2K!

ehbeth- The stuff of which I am familiar is very salty, and a somewhat spicy. It is not great for people who have hypertension!

ai, are the photos that Francis posted like the charqui that you're talking about?

I can get that locally, and it's quite good. I'll have to check the local bun shops to find out what they're calling it here.

So, YES, beef jerky can have a sweetness to it, the good stuff (if there is such a thing) combines sweetness and a little tang of sour combined with the chewiness of something your dog would jaw on for several hours. We used to take it and GORP (Good Old Raisins and Peanuts) on long bike trips to munch on at rest stops. The best part about jerky is that it can sit in the bottom of a tote bag for weeks and not go bad or taste too much like the bottom of a tote bag.

Jerky is nothing like what Francis posted nor what ai envisions making for sale.

Charqui --> jerky is interesting, didn't know that!

It sounds roughly analogous to pulled pork:

They use the dried pork floss on the outside of taro balls filled with pork here. It's a very tasty snack.

Hi ai.

There are quite a number of good Chinese restaurants and bakeries here in Toronto. There are cooks and chefs from a number of regions of China here.

This is an interesting internet article on the six major Chinese neighbourhoods in the Greater Toronto area. There are over 500,000 of Chinese descent/origin living in this city.
