Miso Glazed Bacon Recipes

Steps:

• Position 1 rack in top third of oven and preheat to 400°F. Line large rimmed baking sheet with foil. Place large rack on lined baking sheet. Arrange bacon slices in single layer on rack. Sprinkle brown sugar evenly over. Bake until bacon is crisp and glazed, 15 to 18 minutes. Cool 5 minutes and serve.

Steps:

• Trim and peel the root end of the asparagus to remove the tough outer skin. Slice asparagus in half keeping the tips and bases separate. Lay half bacon strips out on your cutting board. Lay a base piece and a tip piece on each slice of bacon, then roll it up and secure with a bamboo toothpick through the middle at a 90 degree angle.
• Preheat grill to medium heat.
• In a small mixing bowl combine miso, mirin, lemon juice, lemon zest and sugar. Stir with a whisk and use a pastry brush to baste the skewers as they cook on the grill - about 2 to 3 minutes per side on high.

Steps:

• In saucepot, cook miso, syrup, wine vinegar and mirin together.
• Whisk together and reduce on low heat until thick and glossy.
• Meanwhile, lay bacon on silpat or parchment paper overlapping and facing same direction.
• Lay another parchment on top and place smaller sheet pan on top (weigh down with saute pans). Bake at 375 degrees for about 11 minutes.
• When bacon is crispy, take out without removing weights.
• Remove bacon from pan and lay on new sheet pan with parchment.
• Heavily glaze the bacon with the miso syrup and bake 2 to 3 minutes. Let cool and cut into even long strips.
