To Dry Salt Beef and Po 1c
Ingredients
Directions
Lay the meat on a table or in a tub with a double bottom to allow brine to drain off.
Rub the salt well into the meat, ensuring every nook is covered.
Place the meat in the tub and turn it frequently.
Once the brine stops running, bury the meat completely in salt and pack it tightly.
