bei
Yangjiebei is a type of Tibetan beef jerky, originating from the Tibetan region of Sichuan, China. The unique flavor of Yangjiebei comes from the ingredients and production processes used. Traditionally, beef is flavored with a combination of Chinese spices including chili powder, cumin, ginger, star anise, and other regional seasonings. The meat is then rolled and hung up to dry and lightly smoke in a special oven over wood fires. The resulting product is a chewy and spicy jerky that is fragrant and subtly sweet with a touch of smokiness. It is commonly enjoyed as a snack or in small dishes with different seasonings, and is often added to soups and stews for flavor.
