Maple Bacon Onion Sauce is a delicious sweet and savory condiment for burgers, omelettes, cookies, and more. Here’s an easy skillet bacon jam recipe that caramelizes in a skillet and uses a pantry staple.
What bacon sauce do you have
Bacon spread can be used in a variety of ways. It can (and should) be eaten at breakfast, lunch, and dinner, in addition to being a great appetizer.
- A range of meats, cheeses, crackers and nuts on a deli plate (like these Easy Glazed Nuts)
- As a burger sauce (oh my gosh! Bacon Jam Burgers). Add some crumbled blue cheese to the mixture (totally swoon).
- For the best damn avocado toast of your life, spread it on toast with avocado.
- For a delicious breakfast, spread it on toasted English muffins and top with scrambled or poached eggs.
It’s all great refrigerated at room temperature or slightly warmed after a minute in the microwave.
Speaking of bacon sauce, how long will it last
We infer from the recent debate about bacon spread that the finished product is kept at room temperature. Bacon sauce should not be kept at room temperature. Botulism is a deadly foodborne illness caused by a neurotoxin produced by the bacterium botulinum, a spore-forming bacterium. Storing bacon sauce at room temperature increases the risk of botulism. How likely is this to happen?
Bacon, onion, garlic, sugar and acid sources are used in all bacon jam recipes (cider or sherry vinegar). Spices are used in some recipes.
- Bacon contains salt and sodium nitrite, preservatives that prevent botulism from growing when combined with refrigeration.
- Onions and garlic are low-acid foods that grow on soil with botulinum spores. Outbreaks of foodborne botulism have been linked to garlic in oil kept at room temperature.
- Despite the addition of acid, the pH of the final product is unknown. A pH below 4.6 is required to prevent botulism from growing and developing botulism.
- Although bacon jam is cooked during production, there is no final heating step to kill contaminating yeast and mold after the jam is in the jar. Mold and yeast can raise the pH of acidic products (lower the acidity), making it easier for botulinum to germinate, multiply, and produce toxins.
Some bacon jam recipes state that the jam should be refrigerated or frozen after making it. Some do not provide any storage instructions. We strongly recommend refrigerating the bacon sauce until the time specified in the recipe (2-4 weeks) or freezing for longer shelf life.
What’s the big deal about botulism? Botulism is the most dangerous form of food poisoning. Respiratory failure and death are possible outcomes. Even if people survive, they may have to spend months in hospital, put on ventilators, and suffer lasting nerve damage.
Does bacon sauce have a bacon flavor
Then it occurred to me, “Maybe I can write an article about it.” Nothing is wasted this way. So I started showing the jar to a few of my American friends (you know, my article doesn’t offend anyone). I’m not from the US so I’m not sure if this is a famous food there. Some of their reactions are as follows:
Based on their expressions, I believe we can reasonably say that bacon spread is not a thing in America.
To be honest, I secretly wish my little buddies were like: “Have bacon sauce? This reminds me of my youth!” At least, I don’t have to consume it. Just thinking about it makes me sick. So I decided to serve it with some vegan cookies to cover up the full flavor of the jam.
As a humanitarian, I choose to share my pain with some friends. Everyone ran away from me (my life story) except this brave soul.
He enjoyed it, which surprised me. He even went ahead and took the second. and I? I ate one and vomited.
You might be wondering what exactly this bacon sauce tastes like. The flavor of the jam has no resemblance to bacon. It tasted like salty vegetables, but it was liquefied and ground with garbage, then marinated in the toilet for 42 days. I also don’t like the texture; it’s gelatinous, which is not what you’d expect from a beef product.
Does bacon sauce need to be refrigerated
There is no safe bacon jam recipe for home canning. If you want to make it, refrigerate it and use it quickly (or freeze it). Botulism or other diseases are real possibilities.
