Danish bacon is cut from the loin of the pig, differentiating it from American bacon, which is cut from the pig's belly. In Britain, a slice of Danish bacon is usually referred to as a rasher. A very popular British dish containing the meat is a bacon butty, or bacon sandwich. The popularity of this bacon in the United Kingdom can be traced back to the mid-1800s, when the Danish began exporting pigs to the region in a strategic economic move that led to one of Denmark's major exports: pigs.

How to Cook Krown British Style Sliced Back Bacon

• Remove the back bacon from the packet and pat away excess moisture.
• Preheat a griddle or heavy-based pan.
• No need to season this meat as it is already cured.
• Add a few rashers on the griddle or pan – do not overcrowd.
• Snipping the rind halfway down with a pair of kitchen scissors prevents the bacon from curling.
• Cook the bacon over high heat and turn only after the side has been caramelized. Each side of the bacon needs to be cooked for approximately 2 minutes or till they are sizzling.

Recipe Idea:

Bacon and Roasted Onion Salad

Preheat oven to 200° F

• 5-6 slices of bacon
• 1 slice of bread (cut into cubes)
• 1 baby gem lettuce (roughly chopped)
• 1 large red onion, cut into 8 wedges (leave the root intact to hold the layers in place)
• 2 tbsp olive oil
• ½ cup peas
• 1 tsp Dijon mustard
• 1 tsp sherry vinegar
• Salt & pepper for seasoning

Place the onion wedges on a baking tray neatly on one side. Drizzle with ½ tbsp olive oil, season with salt & pepper, and put it in the preheated oven to roast for 15 minutes.

Meanwhile, boil some water and cook the peas for 2 minutes. Drain and rinse them in cold water. Set it aside to cool.

Take out the baking tray from the oven and turn the onions. Place the slices of bacon and pieces of bread next to them on the baking tray. Slightly drizzle some olive oil over the bread. Place the tray back in the oven for another 12 minutes or till the bacon slices, and the bread are golden and crisp.

For the Dressing:

• Mix together ½ tbsp olive oil, Dijon mustard, sherry vinegar, and season with salt & pepper.
• To combine, take a large serving bowl and put the peas and lettuce in it. Add the dressing and toss well to combine. Next, add the bread and caramelised onion to the bowl. Snip the bacon slices or just break them up and scatter over the salad.
• Gobble Away!

Did You Know?

Bacon from the Germanic root “-bak,” and is referred to as the meat which comes from the back of the pig. When it migrated westward, where it became a dish worthy of contemporary gourmets. The Romans called it ‘petaso’. They made it by boiling salted pig shoulder with figs and finally used pepper sauce to season it. For the French ‘bakko’ became ‘bacco’ and soon, in the 12^th century, it was adopted by the English, who called it ‘bacoun’. During that period, the term was used for all types of pork products. However, by the 14^th century, people began referring to ‘bacoun’ as cured meat.
