My friend Med taught me how to give bacon a couple of hot water baths many years ago.Both bits and rashers work with it.
Once the bacon is well-covered, pour some freshly boiled water over it.Allow it to sit for 2 minutes.
While it is soaking, marvel at the beauty of the intricate patterns formed on the water's surface.
The water should be drained off by the time you finish.This time, leave the bacon in the water for a minute.It is necessary to remove the excess salt in order to preserve the taste.
The next step is to cook bacon in a pan.The bacon is fat enough to fry itself in its own drippings.To get it out of the pan, I line a sieve with tissue.It is ready to leave.
On a busy morning, who does that?Come on.Enjoy bacon in moderation.It's much easier.There is no need to be paranoid or misled by med web sites.
Thank you.I do.Most bacon is salty.I enjoy it this way because it is something I eat on occasion.It is not about paranoia or misinformation.Medina is my friend.
My taste for bacon has changed because I don't eat much salt for medical reasons, and as a result my taste has become too salty for me.It's easy to remove some of the salt by soaking it in boiling water.Thanks for sharing!

I tried removing some of the salt and found it didn't change the bacon flavor.Some of the salt and fat was removed.I baked my bacon and it tasted good.The bacon was blanched twice at two minutes.I thought I would need to cut bacon out of my diet as a result of this wonderful idea.
I have found bacon too salty and have given my bacon hot water baths before frying or grilling.Sufficient to get some, but not all of it.
