Ingredients

Main ingredients

  • 1 pound (1/2 kilogram) London broil or side steak (ask your butcher to slice it 1/2-inch/ 1-centimeter thick with the grain, not against it)

  • 3 tablespoons oil

  • 1 tablespoon Alfasi Cabernet Sauvignon or other wine

  • 1/8 teaspoon black pepper

  • 1 tablespoon paprika (see note)

  • 1 and 1/2 teaspoons salt

  • 1 shallot, finely chopped

  • 1-inch (2-centimeter) knob ginger, minced

  • 1 tablespoon Gefen Ketchup (or use sugar-free ketchup), see note

Directions

Prepare the Beef Jerky

1.

Preheat oven to 190 degrees Fahrenheit (90 degrees Celsius).

2.

Toss all ingredients together in a bowl. Transfer to a lined sheet pan, or two sheet pans if necessary, and arrange in a single row.

3.

Bake overnight, or for about eight hours. Cool and store in an airtight bag or container. It doesn’t even need to be refrigerated! 

Notes:

For homemade ketchup, combine 10 diced plum tomatoes, a third cup sugar, a quarter cup wine, one diced onion, and two teaspoons salt in a saucepan. Cook over a low heat until reduced and thickened. For paprika, slice a red pepper into strips. Roast in the oven at 190°F (90°C) for about two to three hours, or until dried out. Grind finely in a food processor or coffee grinder. (One pepper yields about three tablespoons paprika.)
