Hang in your biltong box, or in a well aired, ventilated space with a fan blowing gently to increase air flow. Do not point a fan directly at the meat (to avoid case hardening). Make sure none of the pieces are touching. Place some newspaper below the meat to catch any liquid.</div>

<li>if using cheaper cuts of game or beef, add 1 tsp of bicarbonate of soda per kg to tenderise the meat.</li>
<li>if you dont have any coarse salt and need to substitute with table salt, double-check that its not iodised salt iodine leaves a bitter taste in the mouth</li>
