What if today you find a dish that is exactly the original, but not made the way it should be. Like the jerky that I prepared, for example, as we know, jerky is a food made from processed meat that is dry fried and then prepared with balado sauce. However, what would happen if the jerky was instead prepared from vegan ingredients, namely banana blossoms. Unique and definitely pamper your taste buds like enjoying real beef jerky from Dahing.
The dark black color makes it so similar, the texture and appearance alone surprised me, it's so similar and so perfect. So you need to know that beef jerky is a typical food in our area that is usually served only on certain days. Inspired by this dish, this vegan jerky dish was created. I found this recipe on the internet some time ago because I was curious about what it would taste like so I started making this.
The manufacturing procedure does require a lot of patience in preparation step by step. But the end result quite surprised me and one thing I like about this!

Serving Suggestions
Serve the beef jerky by stirring in the balado or just adding it on top like I did. The taste is very similar to the original, very suitable to be enjoyed with warm white rice. The crunchy taste of meat combined with the spicy chili sauce is enough to make me want to add rice when enjoying it.
This is the first time I have made this balado jerky. I think it tastes very good, it tastes very similar to real jerky which is usually prepared with real meat. It feels really good to be able to prepare this vegan jerky that is similar to the original.
