More Info
Streaky bacon is cut from pork belly and naturally contains more fat than back bacon. During cooking, this fat renders into the pan, helping the bacon brown and crisp.
Smoking adds a deeper savoury character, making this a versatile bacon for breakfasts, burgers, sandwiches or adding richness to cooked dishes. The smoked variety has a more pronounced taste than natural unsmoked bacon and works particularly well in dishes where the bacon is intended to stand out.
Cooking Tips
- Pan-frying: Start in a cool or moderately heated pan and cook gradually, turning as needed. This allows the fat to render without burning the bacon.
- Grilling: Arrange the rashers in a single layer and grill, turning once, until cooked to your preferred texture.
- Oven cooking: Place on a lined baking tray and cook until evenly browned. This method is useful when preparing larger quantities.
- Crispier bacon: Cook slightly longer over moderate heat and drain briefly on kitchen paper.
- Softer bacon: Remove from the heat once fully cooked but before the rashers become crisp.
Serve as part of a cooked breakfast, layer onto burgers and sandwiches, wrap around chicken or vegetables, or chop into pasta, quiches and salads.
