Reliable Drying Rack Setup https://culinary.kemonine.info/notes/2022/12/reliable-drying-rack-setup/ Sat, 03 Dec 2022 00:00:00 +0000 https://culinary.kemonine.info/notes/2022/12/reliable-drying-rack-setup/ The below setup keeps paper towel off the food so the grease won’t make it soggy but still absorb excess liquid. Get a sheet pan Line bottom with paper towel Put cooling rack upside down on top of paper towel Put ‘wet’‘oily’‘fried’ foods on rack Storing Jerky https://culinary.kemonine.info/notes/2022/12/storing-jerky/ Sat, 03 Dec 2022 00:00:00 +0000 https://culinary.kemonine.info/notes/2022/12/storing-jerky/ Once the jerky is completely cool, place it in a bag or airtight container. Failing to do so will make the jerky sweat in the container and encourage mold and bacterial growth. Always remember: If you store at room temperature (around 70 F-74 F) leave it in a dark cool place and use it within a month. If you store in the fridge, you have four to six months to use it.
