Woman's 'chaotic' way to cook bacon has people claiming it's the best they've tried

Bacon lovers have lots of ideas on the ideal crispiness of this savory treat , though most dislike soggy slices.

There's a general agreement that some degree of crispiness is essential. However, achieving the sweet spot of doneness can be hard to perfect with challenges like burn or underdone patches.

But now, a TikTok user is touting a simple yet genius cooking hack that promises uniformly crispy bacon without tinkering with classic frying methods . Emily, from the account @missemilybeer, posted a clip revealing her "chaotic" approach to cooking "super crispy and delicious" bacon, reports the Mirror .

She begins by laying the bacon in a cold pan absent of oil and cranks up the heat to "medium-high".

Emilys choice of streaky bacon is an essential component of the technique. As the bacon heats and begins to cook, she stirs it in the pan to separate the pieces, thus ensuring an even cook

The real game-changer, according to Emily, is skipping oil use and letting the bacon's natural fats do all the work.

As the bacon sizzles, the rendered fat creates the ideal environment for the meat to fry in its own goodness. Emily elaborated: "You see all of the fat that's rendering out of it, that is what you want because we're essentially frying our bacon in its own fat."

She credits the bacon's "extra crispy" texture to her self-reliant cooking approach, highlighting the key to not adding any extra ingredients to the pan. Emily faithfully cooks the bacon at a steady temperature, eschewing any heat adjustments, and garners strikingly uniform crispiness.

The resulting dish delivers a gratifying crunch and notably lacks any burnt or undercooked spots. TikTok users were left in awe of the hack , with many sharing their astonishment at Emily's knack for producing such perfect outcomes without splitting the bacon into smaller portions.

One commenter was amazed: "So you're telling me I don't have to only cook four pieces next to each other at a time? " And a thankful user responded: "I was never taught how to cook bacon and this is not how I cook it. So thank you for teaching me."
