    1/2  c             Light soy sauce
  4 1/2  tb            Honey

pan. Combine marinade ingredients and rub thoroughly into meat.
Arrange meat on racks and let dry at cool room temperature overnight.
Do not refrigerate. Preheat oven to 250°F. Line two large baking
sheets with foil and set wire rack(s) on top of each. Arrange meat on
racks in single layer. Bake 30 minutes. Reduce heat to 175°F and
continue drying meat another 40 minutes. Meat should be lightly
browned but not burned. Let meat continue to dry on racks at cool
room temperature overnight before packing into jars. Dried meat can
be brushed lightly with sesame oil for additional flavour and shine.
