Not for the faint of art. |
There are many things that make being an omnivore worthwhile. Chief among these things, of course, is bacon. I don't mean backbacon (which, in the US, is called Canadian bacon) or the kind of bacon they have in the UK, though those are also delicious. I mean the kind of strips of meat candy we have here in the US. Almost everyone knows how to cook bacon - or, actually, they think they do. Here's a rare article that doesn't start with "you're doing it wrong," but semi-scientifically tests various ways to turn bacon into cooked bacon. https://food52.com/blog/23779-how-to-cook-bacon-best-way-make-bacon-in-the-oven-... Now, I gotta be honest - I do the microwave method. I like crisp bacon and don't like the grease, nor do I have any use for it. I don't even like my eggs cooked in bacon grease. It's just a thing with me. Also I'm lazy as fuck and hate cleaning up; that method is quick and clean, and only requires that I contribute to the ultimate destruction of the ecosystem by throwing away stacks of greasy paper towels. I'm okay with that. But I'm always willing to consider other options - what's your bacon cooking method? (Vegans need not respond) |
