Hi everyone, I was asked to post my beef jerky recipe. hope you like it. We love it. Kind regards to all π cookie beef jerky 1/4 cup soya sauce 2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce 1/2 tbsp ground pepper 1/2 tbsp garlic powder 1 tsp salt 2 tbsp sweet chilli sauce 2tbsp Colgins liquid smoke mesquite
1 packet of scotch fillet steak....or any steak you like no fat...trim all the fat off the steak. Partially freeze the steak as it makes it easier to slice. then slice into thin ribbons. Mix all ingredients together and marinade steak for 2 hours. Then spread over a fine mesh tray so that their not touching and dehydrate on 70 degrees for 10 to 12 hours. dehydrating time will vary depending on how thick you slice the ribbons. dehydrate till it snaps cleanly.....crispy. the more moisture you leave in it the shorter the life span. once it's dry store in either a zip lock bag...a mason jar...or a air tight container. i didn't keep it in the fridge because it dried it to snapping point. if it's moist you must keep it in the fridge or freezer.
me personally I like the crunchy chew.....or suck depending on how many teeth you have. Lol let me know what you think. It's a little spicy...but not too much. Miss 9yo loves it.
enjoy..kind regards and don't give up..πππ» cookie

Hey there ml8300, Lol time wise if you can keep your hands off it Months. I can't actually give you a definite answer on that one. The jerky never lasts in our house...and amazingly enough it doesn't hurt My tummy. Yet cooked meats do. Huh go figure.
I had it sitting in a jar on my counter for about 2 months. That's the longest I was able to keep my son and hubby for out of it. Because it dried. It will last a lot longer. I have it in a couple of my dehydrated Meals and their 2 years old. Still looks great. Still smelt great when I opened one A couple of weeks ago. I used the beef jerky as steak. Hope you like the recipe....very morish. Kind regards to all..π..cookie.. Ps sorry this one isn't so good for your wife. Although maybe tofu jerky. Lol now that one I will have to try out.

Ok. Lol this is definitely my last one for tonight.
Hi everyone, Sorry silly me I forgot to tell you all about the liquid smoke. I have found two places in Perth Western Australia that sell it. The first is in Coventry village Morley. The chicken butcher stocks it. They also stock Colgins Worcestershire sauce....very nice. The other place which will order it in for you is Ha's fresh fruit and vegetables in midland centre point shopping centre. They also stock the amazing mushroom stock that I love. It really enhances mushroom soup. Takes it to a whole new level. Hope this is helpful. Kind regards..π.. Cookie

I've seen liquid smoke (of various brands) in some IGA stores around Perth - especially in more up-market areas where the IGA's have gourmet sections. I've also seen it at Fresh Provisions (both Bicton & Mt Lawley), and IIRC I've seen it at The Good Grocer in Applecross.

Tofu Jerky 250g extra firm tofu 2 tbsp soya sauce 1/2 tsp liquid smoke 2tsp sweet chilli sauce 1/4 tsp garlic powder
Drain and pat dry the tofu. Cut into very thin slices Which together ingredients then brush over Both sides of the tofu Set dehydrator to 70 degrees And dehydrate to it almost snaps. Then enjoy.
Hope you have a wonderful prepping filled day today. Kind regards to everyone..π..cookie

Just a thought. Lolπ .. When you check something in the dehydrator it's a good idea to take it away From the dehydrator and let it cool. As some things warm will feel soft But need to be cool to snap...like cheese.
Kind regards to all..ππ€.. Cookie

Beef jerky update. Lol ITS FINE. NO PROBS WITH IT. I trust my dehydrating....and I'm pleased to tell you It's still crispy and tasty. I have just been chomping on it. In the brown bag I also slipped in a silica gel pack. The brown bag had changed colour but the meat Was fine......it wasn't put in the fridge..or freezer.it was just stored in a tub....not even in the dark .lol I was pretty naive back then as well. Hope this gives you a time frame ml8300 Absolutely no fat....cut it all out.
Keep prepping your survival is worth it..kind regards ..π..cookie

Cookies CARBONARA recipe.
..Ingredients..
1tbsp crushed garlic 2 large onions 1 pack of bacon....fat on rind off. 3 punnet's of sliced mushrooms 2 tubs of whipping cream 1 pack buzzing fettuccine pasta 500g...serves 6
Step 1 Peel slice and chop onions..salt non stick fry pan add onions and 1 cup of water. Simmer the onions...add the garlic and continue to simmer until cooked. Do not allow the Water to dry up. The juice it creates is imperative to the sauce flav of the carbonara. Empty into a large bowl..with all its juices.
Step 2 Remove rind from the bacon and dice up. Lightly salt the same pan and add the bacon. Add 1 cup of water and simmer until the bacon is soft. Do not allow the water to dry up As the juice it creates is imperative to the sauce flav of the carbonara. Empty into the same bowl as the opinions.
Step 3 Lightly salt the same pan and add the sliced mushrooms with 1 cup of water. Salt releases the flav of the mushrooms. Simmer until the mushrooms are cooked. Do not allow the water to dry up as the juice it created is imperative to the flav of the carbonara. Empty mushrooms into the same bowl as bacon and onions.
Step 4 Stir everything together in the large bowl. There should be quite a bit of juice now. Use a spoon and sample the juice flav. It should have an even balance between all the Main ingredients..it should make you go.....mmmmm that's good. Lol
Step 5 Boil the pasta until aldente...alienate is soft not chewy not soggy. Just right. Do not throw it up on your ceiling unless you want to get up there and clean it. Lol After the pasta is cooked. Drain it and add it back to the large pot it came out of.
Step 6 The best part. Now add the bowl contents to the drained pasta and use pasta spoon to give a gentle toss. Add the cream and now simmer on a low heat. Gently heat through. DO NOT BOIL AS YOU WILL BURN THE CREAM. You can add chopped fresh parsley as a garnish. Not imperative but does add to the final flav. Serve when hot and enjoy.
Ps you can sprinkle Parmesan cheese or grated cheese as a topping. Or try crumbled up mercy valley.
.....ENJOY..... Kind regards to all. Don't stop prepping your survival is worth it..πβοΈ..cookie

Hi everyone, Well I made hard tack today. And it worked out a treat. 4-5 cups of plain flour 2 cups of water 3 tsp salt. Mix it all together into a stiff dough. I cut mine out like scones. Used a skewer to poke holes in them Then baked them at 175 degrees till Rock hard and dry. Then leave them out to finish drying and set for 2 days before Vacuum sealing away..or store in an air tight container or in a bucket..
Looking forward to rehydrating one of them to try. Apparently they will sustain you. I recomend you look at the thread Titled...how long will these last.
Kind regards ..ππ..cookie
