Amazing Raw Coconut Jerky

By liatrus

I'm always craving a chewy savory snack. This Amazing Raw Coconut Jerky is the perfect cure for those moments. Not only is it delicious, it's good for you too!

Ingredients

• Meat of one young Thai coconut (or more if available)
• 2 tablespoons Nama Shoyu
• 1/2 teaspoon lemon juice
• 1/2 teaspoon liquid smoke
• 1 teaspoon agave
• Black pepper, to taste
• Crushed garlic, to taste (amount will depend on how much meat you have to start with, don't over do it unless you like garlic!)

Preparation

Step 1

Thin slices of coconut meat from young Thai coconuts is the secret. If they are too thick the jerky is not as good. We save the best thick coconut meat and fillet it, soak it for at least 24 hours in the brine and dehydrate at 105°F for 24 hours or less, depending on your humidity.

Beware: If you test it too much you won't have much left when it's done, it tastes wonderful! Store in air tight jar.
