Everything Tastes Better With Bacon?
Now, I’m afraid I can’t agree here. Would everything taste better with some chewy, oily, fatty bacon slopped on top? I think not. And I am sure there are many other Jews and bacon haters out there who share my views.
Nevertheless I have to acknowledge that I am well in the minority here. In my day to day life I am surrounded by bacon lovers, and I can definitely see a huge market for this book. I dare say some people would even be quite excited to discover that in this world there exists a whole book entirely devoted to bacon recipes. The author, Sara Perry, has written several other cookery books but this is by far the most original, and will no doubt sell best due to its quirky angle.
Perry concocts seventy recipes involving bacon for every occasion. There’s also some bizarre bacon facts, nutritional information and help on where to find the most gourmet bacon bits.
And I have to say, the pictures look appetizing even to me and I don’t even like bacon. The big, bold colours in the pleasant illustrations are very appealing. Crispy rashers of bacon are draped luxuriously across all sorts of everyday foods, sandwiches, pasta and…God no, tell me it isn’t true….those peanut butter cookies have a really gross secret ingredient.
And who would of thought bacon came in so many forms? Proscuitto, pancetta and macon. Everything Tastes Better With Bacon brings a fresh, interesting perspective to a much loved but little experimented with breakfast staple.
Great for anyone dodgy enough to be on the Atkins diet.
