Default Bacon / Chocolate experiment

Steve Pope wrote:

Wanting to see what all the fuss was about, I took two strips
of humanely-handled bacon, sliced each into three segments,
and fried them until something short of totally crispy.
I then arranged them on a plate and placed a square of Green &
Black organic "Maya Gold" chocolate on each, then put the plate
in the microwave and set it for 20 seconds.

It quickly became apparent 20 seconds was far too long --
I took it out after 10 or 15, but 5 seconds would have worked.

Other than over-melting the chocolate, they tasted wonderful.
I don't think the orange/spice flavoring in the "Maya Gold"
added anything so next time I'll use plain dark chocolate.


You can also let bacon slices sit in brown sugar for a few hours
then bake it that way, covered with a nice dose of brown sugar.

Bacon Candy.
