This one's from the Nu'uanu Congregational Church 1985 Centennial Cookbook. Pipikaula is like a flavorful jerky but NOT dried to a tough leather. It should be slightly moist and tender, kind of like a slab of pastrami.
Ingredients:
1 lb flank steak
1 tablespoon hawaiian salt
1 tablespoon water
2 teaspoons sugar
1 drop liquid smoke
1/4 teaspoon chopped chili pepper
1 garlic clove, crushed
2 teaspoons sugar
1 tablespoon hawaiian salt
1 teaspoon cider vinegar
1 tablespoon pineapple juice
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon sugar
1 teaspoon ginger juice or 1/2 teaspoon ginger powder
1 garlic clove
Directions:
1. Choose a marinade and mix the ingredients for your marinade in a bowl.
2. Pound beef with back of knife blade, or a mallet to tenderize. Cut into 2-inch strips, then marinade for 2 hours.
3. Place beef on roasting pan rack to dry in sun or in oven at 175°F for about 5 hours.
4. Broil or pan fry. Slice and serve.
