Biltong is a
variety of cured meat that was originated in South Africa. Various types of meat are used to produce it, ranging
from beef and game meats to fillets of ostrich from commercial farms. It is typically made from raw fillets of meat cut into strips following the grain of the muscle,
or flat pieces sliced across the grain. It is similar to beef jerky in that they are both spiced, dried meats. The typical
ingredients, taste and production processes differ, the main difference being
that biltong is usually thicker (from cuts up to 1" (25 mm) thick),
while jerky is rarely more than 1/8" (3 mm) thick. Also, biltong does
not have a sweet taste but obviously it taste sour and nice. Biltong is so rich
in protein and good for a healthy balance diet...
