Bacon and water? Wow!

Ms_Cellany:
I forget where I saw the video, but holy cow, is this the way to cook bacon!


* Put bacon in pan. Add enough water just to cover.
* Put burner on high.
* When water starts to boil, turn heat to medium.
* When water evaporates, turn heat to low. Cook until done.
The boiling water renders out a lot of the fat, and starts the meaty portion cooking without burning. When the water evaporates, there's plenty of melted fat to cook things evenly.

And it's fun!

Interesting...and it still comes out crispy? If so, I will def try this next time I make bacon.

Nice and crispy, and evenly browned, with no burned hot spots.

Luci45:
Is there any spattering at the end? (That's why I don't cook bacon.)

Tierrainney:
Never tried this method, I just started cooking all my bacon in the oven so I don't have worry about grease splattered all over my stove top.

I might look into this one, too.
