Streaky Bacon

Bacon cut from pork belly, so each slice shows layers of fat and lean muscle. It is cured with salt and usually smoked.

Origin

A British and Irish cut of the same cured belly used widely for bacon.

Flavour

Salty, porky, and smoky, with plenty of fat to render.

How to use it

Fry it until the fat runs and the edges crisp. The rendered fat is worth keeping for cooking.

Storage

Refrigerate and use it within a few days, or freeze it.
