Streaky Bacon

Also referred to as side bacon, this cut comes from the belly or side of the pig. This is the fattiest part of the pig, and streaky bacon is distinctively different from other cuts because of its ‘streaky’ layers of fat.

Cooking Instructions:

• Heat the oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6 and line a non-stick baking sheet.
• Put the bacon on the prepared baking sheet and top with a second baking sheet, then a heavy casserole dish or ovenproof frying pan to weigh it down. Bake for 15-20 mins, or until very crispy.
