Cayenne Pepper saves the day...
April 28th, 2008 , by deborahMy 8 year old O blood type did not like the Applegate Turkey Bacon. So - I added honey and a little salt to it as it fried up in the pan. No go.
2nd time, I cut the bacon into small pieces, preheated the frying pan to a sizzling temperature, and then I sprinkled a little salt, a little brown sugar, and a lot of cayenne pepper. As it sizzled, I actually added a bit of water to the pan, and rubbed the 'flavor' off of the bottom of the pan and back into the bacon.
Next, I cooled it off and stored it in the fridge. Now, it's thumbs up once again.
I might even oven bake just a few pieces tomorrow to toughen it up a bit more. It's not my favorite way to eat it, but he likes things crisp or chewy.
He seems to need something very crunchy in the morning. Sadly, that's why regular bacon appeals so much to him. Fat, salt and crunch.
