Ich koche Speck jetzt schon seit einigen Jahren in Wasser und mir war nicht klar, dass das nicht üblich ist, bis ich anfing, es auf TikTok zu posten und viele neugierige Kommentare bekam. In der heimischen Küche eines Kochs ist das ganz normal!

I’ve been cooking bacon in water for quite a few years now and I didn't realise it wasn’t a common thing until I started posting it on TikTok and got a lot of curious comments. It’s very common in a chef’s home kitchen.
Directions
In a cold pan, lay the bacon out flat and add a little bit of water. You want just enough water to just cover it.
- Place your pan on a stove on a high heat. This will slowly reduce the water until it completely evaporates. This will take a couple of minutes.
- Once the water has evaporated, your bacon will start to crisp up. Make sure you keep your eye on it so it doesn’t burn.
Once the underside has some colour on it, flip your bacon. Cook on this side for about a minute or two and flip again. I flip it another once or twice so both sides have lots of colour. You can turn down the heat if you feel it’s cooking too fast.
- Take it out of the pan and place onto a paper towel or wire rack.
