You open up the bacon and carefully lay it out on the baking pan, the put it in the oven at a perfect 275 degrees. Your kitchen starts to fill with that beautiful bacon aroma, and you step outside to take a call. When you return to the kitchen, that wonderful smell has turned into the smell of bacon burning! In a panic, you open up the oven, and sure enough you had left it in for too long... So what do you do now? Do you throw it out, and start over? Good bacon isn't cheap, and it seems like such a waste! Do you power it down, and just try to not think about that burnt flavor and the extra brittleness? Well, that doesn't sound all that good, and at 50 or so calories a slice, you want to be able to enjoy it. Here's what I do: put the bacon in a pan with some pork broth, and let it simmer at a low temperature for 5 or 10 minutes. The bacon will soften, and any burnt flavor will filter into the broth, and leave you with just the taste of bacony goodness! And if you cook it too long, and it gets a little more limp than you wanted? No problem! Just fry it in a little bit of butter to crisp it back up to your liking when you're ready to munch it down. Enjoy, and you're welcome! A special thank you to Stacie Nerdahl for her video editing skills! #innovation #creativity #culinary #cooking #cheflife
