做法
- 把牛肉的脂肪全部剔除。逆纹切成约1厘米厚、30厘米长的细条。
- 每条用盐抹遍——大方但不掩埋。可选加压碎黑胡椒。
- 把条挂在棉绳上,放在凉爽、干燥、通风处。蒙古传统在冬季有遮挡的门廊或蒙古包内吹风;理想条件0到5°C、低湿度。
- 风干至少21天(列出的烹调时间仅为活动准备;空气风干在数周内被动进行)。条会大幅缩水,变深棕、皮革质地,近似肉干但风味更浓缩。
- 风干后即可用。装入布袋常温存放;可保数月。
- 使用时:在汤或炖菜中煮1到2小时复水。borts会把浓缩的牛肉味释放进汤中,变软可食。也可碾碎用作炖菜调味。所列准备时间包含风干期。

文化背景
蒙古风干牛肉是蒙古古老的腌肉——'能装进牛角的肉',因为干borts可装在角袋中由蒙古战士与牧民长途携带。历史意义巨大:borts让蒙古军队在没有补给链的情况下行军数周,助推蒙古帝国的快速扩张。如今蒙古人用borts熬汤、勾稠炖菜、当高蛋白徒步食物。蒙古的气候(冷、干、风大)是这种技术的理想条件。
