What I’ve been doing recently is putting one of those cooling racks inside a baking tray, putting some water in the bottom of the tray, then putting the bacon on the rack above the water. I use the broiler setting on the oven and just kind of keep an eye on it - takes about 10 min and gets pretty crispy without drying out

I think i'll stick to oven bacon however a similar trick you can do with mushrooms, add like 1/4 cup of water and a a small amount of oil and by the time the pan is dry the mushrooms have released all their water and shrunk so they don't need nearly as much oil to cook. That one was a game changer for me.

@necrojoe 2 жыл бұрын

It actually doesn't. Here's my theory: since you're starting with more water, the temp can't get above 212F until it's gone, unlike adding water to a hot pan which is going to be likely over 300F, which causes that instant, more explosive boiling effect of splatter. No actual scientific data to support this guess, though.

@glurganergc4856 2 жыл бұрын

Add water to hot oil and it explodes. Add oil to hot water and nothing happens. Weird but true

@muifly4892 2 жыл бұрын

@@glurganergc4856 it's not weird, water evaporates and fat doesn't, which is why hot fat usually is much hotter than hot water. So if you add oil to water, the fat just swims on top while the water slowly evaporates, which takes a lot of energy. When pouring water in hot oil it sinks to the bottom due to its higher density and instantly some of it evaporates due to the high heat around it, which in turn makes it expand under the layer of fat, splattering the fat everywhere.

I do use the trick of a splash of water and a lid for the first 5minutes frying, using the steam to cook it and render the fat. The trick to crispy skin/fat is low and slow (thinking duck, and pork in particular for Chinese style roast duck and pork crackling respectively. Too fast may not be crispy enough too high may burn it before best crispiness.

Recently, I was feeling lazy and mildly creative for dinner after work one night. I took a chunk of pre-sliced bacon and instead of laying each strip out flat on a baking sheet I threw the whole chunk on there and cooked it like a roast on 350° for little over an hour, monitoring it about every 15 mins. Then I drip dried it for a bit and gave it a pat down to soak up any further grease. Let it cool off a few minutes and made bacon, ranch and cheddar tortilla wraps with spinach, caramelized onion and tomato. Was too good to eat regularly. Take care y'all 👌😎🍍

So I think the TikTok is missing part of the equation, they use it with whole strips, when it works best with lardons. Kai I know you know about active a passive times in restaurant prep, because you basically went over it in the video… (“you just walk away.”) When you render bacon for bacon bits, you have to keep on stirring for like 15 minutes to get the result you want, if you add some water, the cook time goes from 15 minutes to 25, but really it’s only 5 minutes of active stirring so you’re saving 10 minutes working on tasks you couldn’t have before.

Oven is the only way. The water in the pan is a good trick. But oven to me keeps the integrity of the bacon, while in a pan it tends to shrink and break apart more. Oven also rotates the heat instead a pan is direct heat. Also water and hot fats don't mix well. So watch that heavy splatter when cooking it.
