"From Sunday brunch to a weeknight breakfast-for-dinner, bacon is a classic staple when it comes to a hearty morning meal. It's also a favorite way to pack protein and flavor into a sandwich (BLT, anyone?) or even on a pizza. In other words, there never seems to be a bad time to enjoy it. There are, however, some common mistakes people make when they cook bacon."
"Especially in the U.S., plenty of folks can relate to the struggle of taking raw bacon strips out of a typical plastic package. Unlike breakfast sausages or thicker Canadian bacon, sliced bacon strips are a more fragile meat when handled raw. On top of that, the packaging they're usually found in isn't resealable and doesn't make removal the easiest feat."
Bacon is a versatile protein commonly served at breakfast, in sandwiches, and on pizza. Raw sliced bacon is fragile and can stretch or tear when removed from typical nonresealable plastic packaging. Stretched or broken slices cook unevenly, may not fit in a skillet, and can burn where thinner. Separating strips by gently rolling each slice off the others minimizes stretching and accidental breakage. Some creators propose a faster pre-separation hack before opening the package to streamline prep. Applying careful handling and these separation techniques leads to neater, more evenly cooked bacon with reduced waste.
