That's how I did bacon when I first started cooking it years ago. I found it just took way too long that way and I was hungry.

Make sure there are no sighted people watching. This is very important! 2. Cut or pull the pieces in half, almost directly in half. 3. Lay them in the frying pan touching but not overlapping as much as possible. Fill the pan as full as you can, with the pieces as close together as possible without them overlapping. This won't be perfect. 4. Fry one side on medium high heat. When done, it will feel like it is firm when you touch it with the spatula or your fingers and won't feel as squiggly wiggly. The sizzles will get quieter, more infrequent, and less dramatic. It will also smell like cooked bacon. Then turn the heat off. 5. Wait till it has cooled a bit, then carefully slide the spatula underneath, being sure to have the spatula touch all the pieces. Now raise the whole thing up, making sure you have the whole thing by using your other hand. flip it, using your other hand as a guide to be sure that the whole thing is flipping over and that it lands back in the pan. 6. Turn the heat back on to medium high and finish cooking it. The second side won't take nearly as long as the first one. 7. Put on a plate covered with paper towels. Be sure that the paper towels don't come anywhere near the burner. 7. Blot with more paper towels on the top. Now it is ok for the sightlings to come back in the kitchen. _______________________________________________ Cookinginthedark mailing list Cookinginthedark@acbradio.org http://acbradio.org/mailman/listinfo/cookinginthedark _______________________________________________ Cookinginthedark mailing list Cookinginthedark@acbradio.org http://acbradio.org/mailman/listinfo/cookinginthedark
