PREPARING MEAT, FISH, POULTRY & GAME
It is recommended to pickle meat before dehydrating it to save
its natural taste and make the meat softer. Ensure that the meat is
marinated for at least 3 hours. Please note the longer your marinade the
meat, the better the avour will be.
It is necessary to add salt to pickle as it helps to remove the water from
the meat and allows it to dehydrate more efciently. Always use clean
meats. Meats with higher fat content do not dry correctly.
