wolfie2kX 528 Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 Mouse Bacon -YUMMY In germany we have Mäusespeck. It translates as mouse bacon. Farmers used roasted bacon as a bait for mousetraps. Roasting removed the human smell from the trap. The name was re-used for marshmallows. Nobody here knows marshmallows, but Mäusespeck is very useful as a bait for kits Now some company even produce Mäusespeclk which looks like mice. Hmm These look suspiciously like an Easter favorite here in the US.. Peeps! Like their marshmallow rodent cousins, they too, can be made into cookies and pies and what not. Link to comment
Popular Post tulshulty 24 Posted March 5, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted March 5, 2015 I don't have a picture of this but it's easy to make. Bacon and walnut brittle 1 cup sugar 1/3 cup light corn syrup 2 tablespoons water 1/4 teaspoon salt 1 1/2 cups raw walnuts (any nuts that you like), coarsely chopped 8 slices thick-cut bacon, cooked and crumbled 1 tablespoon vanilla bean paste 1 teaspoon baking soda directions: Grease a baking sheet with softened butter generously. Add the sugar, corn syrup, water and salt to a saucepan over medium heat. Stir until the sugar dissolves and the mixture begins to bubble, about 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in the walnuts and bring the sugar to a simmer/bubble, cooking until it is golden brown, about 3 more minutes. Stir in the bacon, vanilla bean paste and baking soda. Quickly spread the mixture on the baking sheet until it's about 1/4-inch thick. Let cool completely, about an hour. Break into pieces/shards and serve or package for gifts! This can be made a few days ahead of time for gifting. 2 Link to comment

It is like a honeycomb recipe, without the honey, and the adition of the bacon and walnuts, is there a certain temperature that you have to take the sugar mixture to? Delta! 1 Link to comment
tulshulty 24 Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 I just heat it till it is a dark brown I never used a candy thermometer. It will take about 5-6 minutes to get the golden brown color. After a few times making it you get to know the exact time it takes for it to turn the golden brown. It goes great crumbeled on top of the pumpkin pudding dish. 1 Link to comment
wolfie2kX 528 Posted March 7, 2015 Share Posted March 7, 2015 Here in the US, it's called a walnut and bacon brittle. This one's similar but uses Peanuts instead of Walnuts yet includes walnuts. there's even a picture. 1 Link to comment
tulshulty 24 Posted March 7, 2015 Share Posted March 7, 2015 Last time I made it I added some Kahlua and dark spiced rum. Was very tasty. 1 Link to comment
Popular Post wolfie2kX 528 Posted March 12, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted March 12, 2015 This is SO WRONG on SO many levels.. Seem Krispy Kreme has announced a new hot dog. With bacon... Sounds good so far.. BUT... the troubling thing about it, however... Well... There's NO easy way to say it.. The bun is made of glazed doughnut and the bloody thing is filled with jelly... 2 Link to comment
Gilberticus 374 Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 I'd probably actually like that, it's not the taste that would bother me, it's the thought of it that gets me, I'd feel like a big ole lardo Homer Simpson after eating one of those. 1 Link to comment
tulshulty 24 Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 At a fair here every year they have a double cheese and backon burger that has peanut butter and jelly on it and the bun is made with 2 apple fritters. 1 Link to comment

chattius 2,512 Posted March 16, 2015 Share Posted March 16, 2015 Why not bacon with fruits? Pflaumen im Speckmantel, plums wrapped with bacon, are quite tasty and really easy to do. Remove the core of a plum and replace it with an almond. Wrap bacon around the plum and fix it with a toothpick. Roast it in a pan with some oil. In lack of big plums on our trees we often use Reine Claudes (greengage). Link to comment

claudius 104 Posted March 18, 2015 Author Share Posted March 18, 2015 A local hot dog restaurant serves a hotdog with peanut butter on it. I haven't tried the place or the dog just heard about it. But I guess the peanut butter melts and some people like that. Link to comment
wolfie2kX 528 Posted March 18, 2015 Share Posted March 18, 2015 Hmm Peanut butter doesn't sound all THAT bad actually. Maybe gives it a sort of Thai flavor. It's the JELLY that is revolting.. Link to comment
wolfie2kX 528 Posted October 4, 2015 Share Posted October 4, 2015 (edited) Well, if you want fruit with your bacon, how about a Swineapple? It's a pineapple stuffed with boneless short ribs that's been wrapped in bacon: It's made in a smoker/grill. It's a sort of Hawaiian version of a TurDuckEn.. - you know - the turkey stuffed with a duck stuffed with a chicken. Except this is made with pineapple and pork. The instructions can be found here...

chattius 2,512 Posted October 8, 2015 Share Posted October 8, 2015 I guess Hawaii has pineapples. They don't grow at our place. I think experimenting is mainly done with local stuff. You have too many fruits of a sort and don't like the same recipes over and over again. At a 5 star restaurant our selfmade lunch at sunday would have a complicated name like:Bratwurst im Speckmantel nach Müllerinnen Art mit sauren BohnenSpeckmantel = wrapped with baconMüllerinnen Art = Müllerin is a wife of a miller, so it is for dusted with flour or bread dustsaure Bohnen = fermented green or yellow beansYou remove the hide from a Bratwurst, wrap bacon (or Kochschinken = boiled ham, prosciutto) around it, use a twirled egg and bread dust to dust it, fry it.Serve with fermented green beans. Sadly each kids prefers its own Bratwurst variant: cheese filled, herb filled, without extras, ... The best comprise is the cheese filled one. Picture is from the german chefkoch site. We do mainly a not so fine cut Bratwurst filling when making our owns.Related threads in darkmatters:How to make your own Bratwursthttp://darkmatters.org/forums/index.php?/topic/16339-the-legendary-bratwurst/Fermented green beanshttp://darkmatters.org/forums/index.php?/topic/22413-green-beans-fermented-like-sauerkraut-anyone/ I do more Bratwürste than we actually eat. I put the filling into guts to store it and decide later if I use the sausage in its sausage meaning, or peel it to wrap it with bacon, or make meat balls for a soup or rice pan, ... This evening it will be meat balls with roasted quinces. It's the season for quinces. 1 Link to comment
